X1800XT Advice

Its just a picture of the motherboard name that looks about 8 colours that flashes on for about 2 seconds while your PC is first booting up, what possible affect is it having on you, just go into your BIOS and disable full screen logo, then you will see the normal stuff like ram count, drives etc... instead. :confused:

The picture does not do anything, you can't do anything with it, it is just the name of your motherboard thats all it is it is seriously no biggie.

Oh my god turned my PC on on a screen flashed on for about 2 seconds saying DFI, AND GUESS WHAT MY MOTHERBAORD IS A DFI, OH MY GOD ARGHHHHHHHH MACHINES BORKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RMA RMA RMA!!!!!!!.

:D

What made you go mad?? Lol, I'm just telling them how to fix it, as I personally prefer to have right colours. It won't cost me anything!!

As everyone keeps bleeting on about it, why would you possibly want to flash your BIOS and risk killing your board if it goes **** up just because a screen thats says the name of your mobo looks about 8 colours BIOS > FULL SCREEN LOGO . DISABLED!!!!. :D

Does it really need fixing, erm.. no.

I don't know :p . There are lots of new features as well. Plus, I don't quite see how you're gonna kill the card. Even though it DOES fail to flash it, you should be able to recover it(not all cards have this feature, but I think the DFI has it)
I like to always have the newest bios anyhow...
 
I know but its about the logo, do you really want to fanny on flashing the BIOS just because the logo looks 8 colours, then if it goes wrong have to go through a rigmarole of recovering it, why not just RMA the board instead, just tell em your not happy with a 2 second pic that looks 8 colours on boot up, board works flawless, its just that thats wrong, you don't like the 8 colour pic that doesn't affect anything at all of it. :p

If you turn it off you wont see it, but you will still know its 8 colours anyway, bah just RMA it. :D

I don't see why you should tbh, when i had a DFi board the 2 second 8 colour pic didnt bother me for some reason. :D
