Well, Technically, this board does not support my DDR3-1600 RAM by Crucial either. Asus doesn't update there QVL when new things come availible. There is the possibility that with the Microcode Validation and Plug and Play BIOS on, that it would initialy just read as a new processor, until Windows updates with the new information of the processor, tehn when you reboot, BIOS may have the Info it needs.

 

But, this is risky, it may work, it may not. The only way to know is for someone to try, and I don't have the money to "try" anything.

Okay, so I took a chance and bought 16GB of Kingston Hyper X Genesis DDR3-1600. So far, same issues as my Crucial Ballistix Tracer RAM. To get any form of OC to work, the RAM has to be set at 1333, but seems to let me OC Stabily to 3.8GHz. Only after the stability tests do I get BSOD's at 4GHz. This was OCing only with the Multiplier, the CPU-NB, and the HyperTransport. Anybody getting anything better? I know the 1090T does not OC as well as, say, the 1055T, but I still should be able to get at least what it gets.

alright guys, seems I keep hitting a wall at 3.8GHz on my 1090T. I swapped out RAM to Kingston Hyper X Genesis DDR1600 RAM, and as long as I run it at 1333MHz, it is fairly stable with an overclock. Even so, I don't keep it at that because now my power supply seems to hate me.

Hi. can this motherboard's BIOS be programmed to turn-on at specific time ?

(Seem like pretty common with some BIOS).

The BIOS of my other PC (HP, AMD2+, Phenom X2) has this feature: I programmed it to turn on at 7AM every day. The BIOS has no SLEEP time, but Windows7/8 , power properties, put the PC to sleep after 1-2 hours of inactivity.

Thank you.

sorry it took so long to reply, since not many people actually frequent this group I made I don't check it regularly, and I never got the Email for when you posted.

 

Unfortunately, I have yet to find anywhere in BIOS you can program it to come on. I have a Old 2003 model Dell with this same option, and it comes in pretty handy. What I have learned from that system is you can schedule a task in Windows 7 Schedule Manager to wait til current tasks finish, then completely shut down the system. I set my Dell to startup at noon, and shutdown at Midnight, so effectively is running during the peak hours people would use it. But, since you are telling it to sleep, you may be able to let it sleep when not in use, and setup a Wake timer in Windows.

WIth this mobo, Not sure if once the PC (Windows7/8) slept (hibernation or sleep), it can wake up without the bios feature I mentioned. It's weird that the time can only: 1,2,3...23. Not 7:30AM for example. But still better than nothing.

My windows8 has a widget-clock-alarm (paid version has even: go to this radio station and play it).

So that's my alarm clock, and all my mails are ready in the morning everyday at 7:00am

I remember all the AMI 10-15 years ago all have this. Now BIOS has more space but they cut down on simple thing like this.

I just noticed y'alls site after searching for a little help on my sons' ex-gaming rig. I can't get her past the "completing installation" on the win 7 ultimate installation after swapping from a dual to triple core 445 and putting a 750 gig black sata 2 hd in her. It ran great always before wiuth a few glitches with the ethernet and a static issue with the usb's but always booted fine. Do y'all have any suggestions that may help? The hard drive is about a year old and was used as my storage drive until now. Here's the specs if it's helpful. Thanks.

Asus m4a87td-evo w/athlon 445 X3 triple
Either ballistix 1866 2 x 2 gb or dominator 2 x 2 gb 1600
zalman z11 plus w/ thermaltake power supply
Powercolor 6570 1gb 128 bit ddr5 gpu w/aerocool aftermarket cooler
Zalman direct heatpipe tall type cpu cooler
asus dvd burner and w.d. black 750gb sata 2 7200 rpm

ps: my sons' other rig has an m4a88t-m mobo in it and runs great as well...

I figured oiut the issue. I had to empty all the usb ports and just use ps/2 keyboard and mouse and voila'! Installed perfectly! I stll have an unlocked Phenom II X4 B45 cpu (formerly Athlon II X3 445) but it automatically disables core number 3 using the asus core unlocker but I stiull get to keep the L3 cache though..!?!? It must be a bad core and why they sold it as a triple core.
