Hello all, Having currently just moved house, I've a semi-temporary office setup for my gaming PC / home working area, and am looking for some wireless sound that isn't headphones (I have those for when I game). I have a set of the amazing Logitech Z906's, which are incredible, but at this...

Shaft question: has anyone ever swapped a shaft configured for a Titleist driver (in this case a 915 D3) to fit a Taylormade head (a 2020 SIM)? I've got an absolute stunning Accra Tour X that I used in the 915 so therefore fitted with Titleist adaptor - and would like to see about fitting it to...

Thanks Bremen, will take that on board and see what I can do.

Hi there, bit of advice please. I'm in the process of building a small "spare" PC with some old bits. I have a PSU (a Nexus RX-8500), but I don't appear to have any of the modular 6-pin 12v molex / SATA power cables. I only need two cables (or one that is split possibly?), one for my SATA...

Not sure either, but happy for a DM?

thanks guys - will head the above - don't think this board has a jumper to reset, but will remove battery and hit the button for an hour or so ;-)

Idiot question: CLR_CMOS button on the board, how long should this be pressed to clear? Assume it has to be a number of seconds to avoid accidentally pressing?

Out of interest, if a BIOS has corrupted (for whatever reason may have caused it), can that usually be fixed with an update (or in this case flashback)? Or can sometimes that be considered "it" for the life of the board? Just wondering if some corruption has occurred.

I can't be 100% certain, as the ****** won't boot, but the first few times I tried it flashed, then went solid blue, which research tells me means it failed. The most recent time (after renaming the file a per above it flashed in s sequence for about 2 minutes (plus the USB had it's own flashing...

Just one further question for clarity around PSU power for the board. It has the normal 24pin (top right side) and another 16pin (2 x 8 pin) north of where the CPU is mounted - I've got those both plugged in. There is a further 6-pin just south of CPU, above the PCIe lanes - I've read this is a...

Ah, I've had it all apart completely already - so happy to try those as well - mounting pressure.... interesting one, I don't have an air-cooler, but I guess for the time it takes to turn on, get an image on the screen (which would be massive progress), I should be able to test that also. I...

Cheers Paul. Sadly I think it is a gonner. For reference, and in case it helps anyone else searching, the response from Asus support when enquiring about how to rename the downloaded .CAP file is below (note, the motherboard manual suggests renaming the .CAP file to "X99EU31". This didn't...

agreed - and thanks Paul. Using your pointers from above, the board does have a FlashBack utility, but the button is on the back (on the I/O panel). I've downloaded the latest BIOS and will rename to "X99EU31" as also suggested in the manual - when I can find a flipping USB key to try it with...

Quick further question if you don't mind: under the CPU, there is a blue LED lit - This light goes out if the 2x 8pin 12v power are disconnected just north of where the CPU is seated, but equally, I can't seem to find out if this is referencing a CPU issue or if this light is supposed to be on...

Thanks Paul - nearly tried that but then saw the 10G bit (before I spent a while hunting the on-board button). :-)

So removed the battery (top right of the motherboard - weirdly, on the mobo it has a label right next to it stating "CHA FAN BATTERY", but on the motherboard manual it clearly states "Lithium Cell CMOS Power", either way, I removed overnight and put back in this morning. Turned on, nothing on...

Thanks - will do this and report back

Thanks Tetras, yes, did try whipping the battery out (and made sure PSU was switched off and disconnected), left it out for about 5 seconds - might try that again and leave out for a longer while.

Hello all, Bit of an issue if someone is able to offer some advice please. I've just finished a refresh / upgrade of my system, the new(ish) compotents are: Asus X99-E WS motherboard. GTX 1080 graphics cards (I actually have 3 of them, but for troubleshooting purposes I'm only going with 1...

Thanks guys - appreciate the feedback - am attempting to locate the model of the original block. If I find it I'll report back. Thanks once again.
