P8P67 Pro Problems

Bashy123 · 10 May 2011 at 13:19

I have a few problems with this new motherboard, hopefully I can get some advice.

The first problem is in the BIOS, the resolution appears to be all messed up so I can't see most of the options.
The second problem is that I cannot get into windows. Nothing I do will move it any further than the pulsing "Starting Windows" symbol.

It is getting really irritating trying to get this to work, was just wondering if anybody else had encountered these errors and could help

It sounds like memory to me. Check the ASUS website has a compatibility list for memory on the product pages.

Can you post you full spec.

Firstly, try booting the system with one stick of RAM at a time. If that fails then try another module/bank etc. Secondly, this board comes with memory Ok feature so try that also.

Corsair should be ok. See how you get on and let us know

Eureka! I haven't found a fix, but I have found the cause. When RAID is enabled, I cannot boot into Windows. are there any Sata which I should be using for RAID, because I think mine are plugged into the bottom blue ones

you can use any sata slot, thats because you didnt format drive in raid also might not have raid drivers instaled

I had all sorts of grief with mine and a raid setup that turned out to be a dodgy sata cable, try changing them.
