4930K
Asus Rampage IV Gene
I can't get my new system to post, just black screen. I had a non-Ivy Bridge-E BIOS so my 4930k wasn't recognized. No problem. So I updated with the ROM-to-CAP Conversion which seemed succesfull (USB blinking for 1 minute or so then ROG connect button light turned off) using USB flash (the one when the system is off but still powered). Great! However, when I then try to update to the latest BIOS CAP, the USB only flashes like 3 or 4 times then turns off which means it doesn't work.
I watched videos, read and followed all the instructions (format USB, rename files, try with everything unplugged and no CPU besides 24-Pin and 8-pin power, try with everything plugged including CPU and CPU fan header, etc. etc.) and the new CAP BIOS just won't install, again, even though the ROM-to-CAP Converter looked like it installed great (other than the 2 reboots it's supposed to do but I think that's only for people that are doing the BIOS update from inside the BIOS rather than the USB update while the system is off and only powered).
This is very frustrating and should be a 5 minute procedure. I've been at it a solid 10 hours now.
