Hey guys Im having alot of problems with this mobo (asus p5n-d) and was wondering if you have to configure your sata hd and dvd drive? Or configure anything on the pcie bus in the bios to get it to work properly??? Any help would greatly be appreciated!

What is the specific problem you are having with your drives?

Have you tried reverting it to the Default settings?

yea tried the defalt settings still didnt help. when u turn it on it posts just fine. Then when it goes to load windows it just freezes. cant get out of it. I have to restart it with the reset button. Also my dvd drive wont automatically read disks like it used to. I have to go to my compter and make it read it??? I have to restart it about 5 times to get to load windows. When it does load and you get going on it, it freezez up again

Has it always had this problem? I mean, when did the problem start? And, do you have the latest BIOS?

cant seem to get updated bios. when I download them its in zip folders. when I unzip the folders it wont let me install them. It started when i installed the mobo drivers for the chipsets. when I install all of them it instantly goes to blue screening and reboots over and over. so i didnt install everything and it quit blue screening. Now it wants to freeze up constantly.

Hmm. Regarding the BIOS arriving in .zips: I think that you have to put those on a bootable disc, or flash drive and then reboot and flash the BIOS before booting into Windows. I mean, I don't think they're intended to be installed within Windows. However, I'm talking like this because I'm honestly not 100% sure.

Anyway, I have a question that I'm like 2% sure could be relavant, but I guess it's worth a shot: do you still have onboard audio enabled in the BIOS? And when you installed all of those drivers, did you let it install the onboard audio driver too?
