Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe thread

[DarkFaith]

Hi FB.
This is how my confusion started. At first I thought those were the right drivers too, but take another look...the drivers you mention (nforce4 Intel X16) don't match the chipset (nforce4 "SLI" X16).
I'm getting a headache trying to figure this one out.

pretty sure that is the drivers you needed they consolidated them over a year ago

Oh yes, I think I recall something about a consolidation. I'll give thse drivers a try & see what happens.
Thanks FB.

Is anyone here who tried the 1405 beta.

[hspumanti]

I just installed 1405, so far I haven't noticed any changes.

I have my 2nd replacement A8N-SLI deluxe motherboard from ASUS. This is a refurb and I don't think it is working correctly. I have a weird problem when resuming from S3 standby mode in that it resets the FSB to 200MHz. If I restart the system the FSB is once again set to 270MHz. I've examined all the settings in the BIOS and I don't see anything that could be the cause. Any ideas or do you think this refurb board is defective.

Thanks,

This may be a dead thread... but if you use the A8N32-SLI Deluxe with SLI video cards and are experiencing high CPU usage due to deferred procedure calls (DPCs) and interrupts, it MAY be caused by the PEG Link mode trying to OC your video cards.

Try setting PEG Link to normal; I had 30% or more CPU cycles being taken up with DPCs and hardware interrupts, but setting PEG Link mode to normal completely eliminated this. I also haven't seen any of the BSODs I was occasionally getting with SLI.

Recently I Re-installed XP Media Center 2005. Every thing is great with the exception of boot. I have to hit F8 and select my system drive every time.

After disconnecting my storage drive, CD,DVD drives, floppy and printer, it boots extremely fast. The post is barely a blip.

Any clues would be appreciated.

.....welp, Hello to all herefor in this mthrbrd catagory; for as you can see in my sig's for the main brd i am running on my gaming rigg went south ( the MSI's K8N DIAMOND PLUS ); all of a sudden i lost the main, Primary, PCI-E slot. So, I've have a few of these mthrbrd's and just re-set all upon one, then RMA'd the mthrbrd, since still under warrantee,.....and only was notified that it could NOT be replaced; so i am being sent an "Upgrade'd" version of .....(believe it will be one of the AM2 slot & to take DDR2 memory...otherwise all else is the same of ) So, since I know this IS a very compatable, EVEN = better mthrbrd of the MSI's, I chose to transferr all to be within in THIS community of a system and all...........half to admitt, this was a whole lot simple'r to set-up and run and all..... and basically just did a whole complete re-install of XP w/SP2 without a hitch...... .....sorry IF i didn't try & use & stick with this mthrbrd earlier, but I am for here now and glad i did seitch over to.........WILL now be subscrib'd for here and maybe even post here and thar for anything ahead........

my a8n32-sli dlx WONT POST !!!!!


I got mine back in 06. It was always finicky in one way. If it was shut down AND disconnected from power for any length of time it would BSOD on the next power up. It would do this thru a couple of resets until I went into BIOS and just F10 to save it self. Then it would it would boot into WIndows and work fine.

Recently I would come over to my PC and it would have BSOD while it was still on. It did this twice. The last time it wouldnt goo past the power on. NO POST. nothing on screen. I have the XMS Corsair mem with lights so I can see the activity. On power up I see all the lights down to red. They flcikr for a couple of seconds and then they go to yellow and there is no post. I even tried changing the CMOS battery and that didnt make a difference. I tried resetting; move the jumper next to the CMOS battery over and reboot right ?

so I am at a loss right now. Without POST I dont even know what to diagnosis is ? HELP !

Hey thar alien resident.... . . .would glad to give ya help upon comparing WHAt is showing for in my BIOS for what you see is setup for my rigg of this mthrbrd...... all is still as you see for in my sig's on this EXCEPT for having the "H2o" stuff kupon the CPU; ..... am using it upon another mthrbrd~setup/testing purpose for the moment....... so, it is on the side for here, with having only a HSF (stocker with the Copper&Heatpipe's).
. . . . as for the reset of the Bios_jumper, yes, it is the little=3-pin next to the Cmos Battery = the jumper is temporarily set-upon the Middle & RIGHT-pin, for like 10 sec. > > > > then replace back upon the Middle & LEFT pin prior to boot.......then go from there and check & set in BIOS for your setup_setting's preferred, IF setting's for Hardware is NOT too far for out of range, etc......... IN my Opinion, you should start off to setup with BASIC's......even mean's of 1ea CD drv, 1ea HHD, and a flppy drv, & start with 1 ea stick of ram module & test accordingly.........you can even just test out your memory without dealing with going into Window's yet.........But, anywho, give a hollar if ya want me give ya my setup's of each in the BIOS for what my mthrbrd & SLi setup is showing, (2 compare), . . . . . . . . will be glad to Help ya out and configure/diagnose/hopefully find the Prob......... by way of here and all, or send me your landline # in PM and we can go from there .........

Would like to know the max CPU that can be use for on this motherboard. Please send the link for the info
