Hi , do you also have the problem with the Z87-A and DTS connect? I cant find an option to enable it. It seems to be ASUS fault -.

nerom86 :

Explore your driver disc for the DTS package. There should be one on there..

hey thanks for the response, is this beta release "safe" ? Does it have other changes except the DTS features?

Thanks!

raja@asus · Jun 28, 2013

Well I posted it. So up to you if you want to use. Don't know of other changes. If not, just wait til the same build is posted on the ASUS page instead.

Hello,

many thanks for the response! I asked the same question to the Asus support one week ago directly. They confirmed the problem but had no sollution yet.
Good to know that Asus is working on a solution.

I have a question regarding the UEFI-boot time on this Board.
With the latest UEFI/BIOS it tooks 8 seconds before windows (7-64bit) starts to boot. I allready have optimized everything I could (deactivating everything I do not use). with the UEFI version before the boot needed 14 seconds. So this allreaedy a nice improvement

This is my first UEFI-board so I am not sure. In my opinion this is a long boot-time. Is this normal or can I do anything to speed it up. Maybe I am doing something wrong.
I mean just the time before the OS starts to boot, just when the BIOS screen appears.

What are your UEFI boot times?

Many thanks in advance.

Hi unfortunately this BIOS does not fix the error for me

I reinstalled the OS and used the ASUS driver too.

EDIT: it works with R2.71 (6.0.1.6937) DRIVER. but got them of another webpage, and not ASUStek.
But with these it works!! Thanks

I have lost faith is Asus. A brand new Z87-A Mobo and an Asus Xonar sound card. Onboard sound can only be used via front headphone connection and the sound card was not recognized. Two product, both faulty.
Looks like their product are not subjected to any quality control.

Care to post info on:

1) Which UEFI version used?
2) Which driver versions used?
3) Which PCIe slots used and which other devices plugged into the board?
