To exclude a possible short, remove the MB from the case and place MB on to a couple phone books thats covered with a non static MB bag. Connect power supply, keyboard, mouse, primary hard disk drive, monitor and internal speaker. Also leaving CPU/heatsink assembly and memory connected.
Short the power-on pins by using a pen. See page
1-34 in you're manual, PWR BTN. If the system boots ok than there was a short with the MB while in the case. If the system does not boot than the MB is bad or the bios needs flashed. Keep the MB out of the case and follow the instructions on page 2-2 section 2.1.1

Hope you find this helpful!

If you're using a scsi card and connecting the hard drive to the card you need to have the scsi set-up floppy disk. When the blue screen starts during windows installation watch the bottom of the screen. It will tell you to press F6 key then to insert the floppy disk.
If you're using a sata drive connected directly to the motherboard (not in a raid configuration) you shouldn't need anything but the windows disk. The motherboard drivers and utilities disk should have the files to create the scsi install disk.

plz update your bios

Windows 7 Should automatically take drivers. Otherwise you have to ask to manufacturer. Or just check hardware compatibility on Microsoft site.

Hi
You should find the drivers you are looking for on the Asus website.
Here's the link to their download page,

Hi,

several reasons for this.

1:) CPU Overheating.
2:) RAM Overheating.
3:) Motherboard Component Overheating.
4:) FAN not operating correctly.

These are a few things that can shutdown a computer after a few minutes, also viruses/trojans et,c.
can shut off hard-drives. and even instruct the bios to change settings.

Check that the CPU And case fans work correctly.

Mike @ compurepair.

i advise you to try and download driver magician from any torrent sites. if your lucky, youll see that and that will be a great help in locating your motherboards drivers.

Hello!


That's the 2nd time i hear that kind of problem. Your mboard battery is new, and you did not press "f1" at first start.

so i guess , the cmos time is not change, try go to the bios setup and load "bios setup default." after that change the time setting on the bios. please find time setting and set it with a current ime in your area. after setting press 'F10" to save and exit the setting, the system will restart.

may this help!

best regards, melnavz

check timezone it's possible you are setup for the wrong one

Things need to be turned on in your bios patrohi. This is why windows didn't boot to the SATA. You need to use your manual & make sure the, Serial ATA Controller is [Enabled]
Within the Advanved menue under SouthBridge Configuration.
At the Main menue the SATA drive should be listed.
Boot settings need to change as well. At Boot Settings Configurations. Make sure your SATA drive is listed.
Boot order should list like, Floppy 1st, CDROM 2nd, SATA 3rd. The SATA will not list as a SATA but the model number of the SATA drive. Once all these settings are set save & exit. Your drive should show up for work & the windows CD should load.
