[camerounais1]

Hi,

I but a ASUS SABERTOOTH 990 FX Motherboard few month ago to mount my new computer. Just finish putting all togather. But I realised that when aver I unplug the Power supply for mor than 5 mn, i will lost My bios settings and will be promted to hit F1 to enter Setup to recover Bioa settings. I Updated just the date on the bios setting and keeped all the rest as default but didn't change anything. I Updated the bios to 0705 version. Still no change.

Thank you for your help.

Looks like your motherboard battery is dead.

How come it is a new motherboard. How can I test it?

If you have a multimeter you can measure the voltage.

Sounds like the board is POSTing into safe mode. Might be worth listing your parts...
