I recently purchased a Sabertooth 990FX Gen 3 Rev 2.0. I set it all up, and I posted first try but upon Windows trying to boot, my system restarted. I figured the first thing I would do to try to fix this is a BIOS update. I got the correct file from Asus's website and updated to the latest version. However, once it was done flashing, the system would not POST at all. The dram light was on indicating a problem with the RAM. I was confused, considering it worked before.
Unsure on what to do next, I tried the MEM-OK button. No luck. I figured now I'd try to rollback the BIOS with the BIOS Flashback feature.
I got my flashdrive, formatted to FAT32, got the older BIOS file, renamed it to "ST990R2G3.CAP" and plugged it into the white USB port. I held in the button, it blinked 4 times, and stayed solid. This indicates it did not work.
Confused, I grabbed another flash drive. I tried it, no luck.
I am now sitting here unsure on what to do. I am sure the BIOS flashback will fix the memory problem. I know my memory works with the mobo since it did before the update.
I also breadboxed it with no luck. Anyone have any suggestions?
