This review is from: ASUS M5A78L-M/USB3 AM3+ AMD 760G + SB710 USB 3.0 HDMI uATX AMD Motherboard

Pros:

none

Cons:

bios is a big problem. Doesn't want to open most times, and when it does open, the first keystroke causes the computer to "hang"(even the clock display in bios stops!) requiring a re-boot. I've re-installed the battery, cleared the CMOS, and even replaced the computer power supply(don't ask me why!) Thus the rating and title comment.

Overall Review:

Asus are usually pretty good boards, I don't get it! Only gave it one EGG because it didn't set my house on fire!

Manufacturer Response:

Dear Valued Customer,

Thank you for taking the time to inform us on your ASUS experience. I'm sorry to hear about the issues you are experiencing during boot up. please Download UEFI build Version (2101) and extract the file to a fat formatted usb stick. Then navigate in bios to the tools menu and use the EZflash utility to do the flash. Let your system update the firmware as needed. Do not power down even if your system sits with a blank screen for 10 minutes or so. When updating your UEFI please make sure to wait for the firmware to update after the board restarts following the flash. This can take a couple of minutes after the board restarts. The board should be left alone during this process. If you need assistance with any technical questions or general inquires, please make sure to contact me at cl-nestor@asus.com.

Thank you for choosing ASUS!

Best Regards,
-Nestor
