    Hello,

    This is an issue I have found in many other threads, but none of the solutions has yet worked for me.

    I'm currently on bios: 209

    I used the microsoft Hotpatch as explained here But his only made it worse. (random freezing about 2times in 3 days became freezing while booting up,..


    I can 'create' the crash when i run this rule in a batchscript (and choose a non-valid option)

    Code:
    CHOICE /C JN /M  "Pressing something differen he J or N will make my asus crash"
    
    
    However I tried it on other computers, and all it suposed to do is give an system BEEP.

    However this is not the only thing he crashes on, some flash-animations/games also causes my PC to crash.

    Anyone now what is causing this problem and what might be a possible sollution?

    greetings. Sinkfun

    ps: I reached this site from google and are new here, but I hope this won't stop you guys from helping me. You guys seem like an very active forum, and I hope my input might also help some other users.

    If you are running the Creative Audigy MB app, go into CMSS-3D and enable it.

    Glad that helped. If you searched for Creative fixes, you would have found that tip in my Creative Debugging thread. ;)
