My PC is old but it still runs great for most things regardless. all usb connected devices would act up in Windows. I had NO issues with the keyboard in Bios mode, only in windows when the mouse would start it's issues. I have contacted Steel Series to see if they know about this issue but no reply yet. I did flash the BIOS to an earlier version from 2503 and both of the ones I tried had the same effect, the mouse would not work lol.įor those that read this it's a 'Steelseries Rival 310' mouse. The one the Motherboard came with and now the mouse works fine in BIOS mode and windows. I ended up reverting back to my original bios from 2014/2015. It's a lighted mouse and would turn on and off repeatedly.so fast that you can't use it. It was after all of that headache I noticed in BIOS mode the mouse wouldn't work. Then I got really nervous that I might have a bios virus.rare but does happen. I actually thought I had a virus but my virus scanner came up with nothing and so did Windows defender. A few weeks ago they started to cut in and out at random in windows. Originally, the problems with the mouse were in Windows. It keeps cutting in and out and cannot even be used. The mouse will not work properly in bios mode but I didn't know this until a few days ago. However, I got a new mouse and keyboard recently. I've been using bios version 3503 for the past year or so without issue. I have found this news from ASUS, this is the Meltdown and Spectre BIOS patch, so will updating result in a performance hit on the 4790K and what is the expected performance hit?Ĭlick to expand.I have an ASUS Z97-A. Thank you.ĭirect Link to my motherboard's BIOS page: Perhaps can have a look at the ASUS motherboards? If you can please. Both motherboards are running a Core i7 4790K 4.7Ghz I also own a Gigabyte Z97X Gaming GT, but no such BIOS update has been released by Gigabyte, nor do I anticipate they will ever update their BIOS. Or if anyone here can open the BIOS file and have a look at what changes ASUS has made between the previous version from 2015, and the current 2018 version. I was wondering if anyone on old ASUS boards have got updates for their motherboards, and what results have they noticed after upgrading. Stuck in a dilemma considering there is no change-log. So I am hesitant to upgrade the BIOS in case of a performance hit, but at the same time I am interested in seeing whether I can get better overclocking results. And I am guessing, once upgrading to this version, there won't be rolling back. Upgrading it from version 3003 to version 3503 ( Obviously the biggest iteration jump I have seen). I have just noticed that ASUS had released a BETA update on the 26th of April 2018. I own the ASUS Maximus VII Ranger and the last BIOS update was in 2015.
