I called Asus for help with my mobo. They already have me on file for a mobo problem (bios date resets to 1999). Well, they fixed it and sent the board back to me, only to find that the same error keeps happening. So I called them, and a "tech guy" gets on the phone, and...we go back and forth..he tells me to replace the cmos battery, I did.... TWICE! Then he tells me to update the bios, but I already did that several times. I then proceed to tell him that I have another mobo of the same make and model, and it works fine. HE TELLS ME......"WELL, TAKE THE BIOS CHIP OUT OF THE GOOD BOARD AND PUT IT IN THE BAD ONE AND SEE IF THE ERROR OCCURS AGAIN". I think the retards at ASUS need to finish 7th grade before they are allowed to get a job there. I cant believe that this moron actually told me that!! I told him "piss on you, then that means I void the warranty on both mobo's, I aint doing that!", then he said, "I'll transfer you to a higher level of support" which lead to a voicemail of a tech guy (I guess). I HATE ASUS, and will never buy their shit again. I know they have good products, but damned be to the one who has an issue, cuz you wont get it resolved. This issue is now 1 year 4 months old, and still no resolution. Sorry, this post is mainly just a vent...I am sooo pissed off. But, I can make it qualify for the hardware world thread by asking:
Does anyone know why my mobo switches back to 1999 in the bios seemingly out of nowhere even after ASUS replaced the cmos chip? Mobo is a P4C800-E deluxe
It just seems odd that they would ask me to do that, considering the mobo has a 3 year warranty....maybe I should literally "piss on the mobo while I remove the BIOS chip" and that will make it function properly, cuz thats apparently what they do. :cocksuckers:
