    I just found these on the asus site under A8J, not A8Jm but I see no reason why they shouldn't work. After installing it hcontrol doesn't seem to be crashing im running intel 10.1.1.3 drivers without the proset utility. Using the wireless hotkey a dialog box pops up saying proset utility needs to be installed. So i'll try that in a bit.

    Its updated as of Sept 5th 2006. Give it a try and lets see if Asus managed to fix the issue.

    Don't you know you're the official A8J driver/BIOS guinea pig ? :) Once you run it without problems, everyone else will follow

    yeah im running it absolutely fine...latest intel drivers no crashing nothing. So i would recomment people give it a shot as well. Also using Fn + F2 works properly now unlike the other hcontrol.exe
