Hi. Just bought a sabertooth 990 r2. The problem is that it locks up when I try to access the BIOS. There are 4 ways of getting to the BIOS; hitting del key, hitting f1 after mem check, using the direct key, and using the desktop program that comes with the board. All result in a blank screen, and the machine hanging. This is my second board, bought through amazon (under 20hrs to replace!!), with exactly the same problem, which leads me to think I'm doing something wrong, as opposed to it being a dead board. The BIOS is obviously there as it will still recognise the components and install windows. I've flashed it, and I can see the revision number on the mem check page. I've flipped the battery and moved the jumper. Ran on minimum hardware, etc. Noticed a few posts with this problem, but no solution. Anyone discovered something new that would help me? Thanks.
P.s. great site. Helped me loads over the years.
