I have that exact mobo, get a memory stick, go to the asus website @ http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M5A97_R20/#support_Download, the correct bios for your os and save it as this: "M5A97R20.cap". Put the usb in the rear green bios port and hold down the bios flashack for 3 secs until a flashing light appears. Wait till it goes out and ur done!! Source: MANUAL!!! ALL OF IT!!!
