- Clear CMOS if step 1 and step 2 doesn't work
- SATA drive not installed properly in OS
- For older Windows XP/2000 or older, please install driver for the drive to work
- For RAID, please install RAID driver from motherboard downloads for Windows 10
- For NVME PCIE/M.2 driver, please go to manufacturer and download NVME driver for best performance
- Faulty or unplug data cable; if NVME M.2 drive, skip step.
- Please plug the SATA cable to the drive
- If plugged, please unplug and plug the drive
- If still not work, swap SATA cable if it is faulty cable
- Drive is not spinning up or working
- For M.2, unplug and plug the M.2 drive
- For drive,
- power off the system
- Unplug the SATA cable of the drive
- Turn on the computer ,and see if the drive is slight vibration/ spinning by touching side of the drive.
- if there is clicking sound ,please RMA the drive
- Drive is faulty
- Check ATA/SATA /SSD /M.2 drive on another computer and if it does not detect, it is faulty drive

The bold issue is what I am trying to find a solution for and why I emailed ASUS. I am trying to workout an RMA with Sabrent so I can get 2TB SSD replaced.For the rest of the day, unless Sabrent or Asus get back with me with some solutions, I am going to keep my M2_1: Samsung 250GB (OS drive) / M2_2: Sabrent 512GB-PCI4.0 setup going and I will see how this works. If this works and doesn't have issues, then it will mostly prove that the 2TB was the culprit.
The Sabrent 512GB not working in slot 1 is an annoying issue, but one that I dont have to solve at this moment.
Right now, my OS is running on version 1903. I am hesitant to run it on 2004.
I wasnt doing that. But its running now.Have you tried memtest86? (Boot drive will test your ram)
If the only thing that has ever happened to you is having to change your default browser back to chrome every 3 months consider yourself obscenely lucky.You may have a bad cable or SSD
The only time im frustrated you see a windows update. How great was that last one where it planted EDGE as your browser and you CANT uninstall it without going into powershell. MS is a fcking waste.
I know this won't be popular but don't waste your money in AMD. I knew when I saw the thread it would be an AMD processor. They're great for consoles and an annoyance for PC. It's the difference between Dr Pepper and Dr. Thunder.
I had a ton of issues with an AMD build myself — endless blue screens of death, driver issues out the ass, unexplained crashes. Just a fucking nightmare. Switched back to Intel CPU/GPU and have had almost no issues since (except those inherent to PC gaming, as explained above). But yeah, far greater stability overall. Worth the extra money.I know this won't be popular but don't waste your money in AMD. I knew when I saw the thread it would be an AMD processor. They're great for consoles and an annoyance for PC.

For Proton? Of course. It isn't emulation, but a translation layer - which means much better performance than emulation.Do you have to trade some performance for that though? I'd love to try out Linux gaming but wary that my 1070 would struggle even more.
Well god fucking dammit. Got another blue screen from that fucking Ndu.sys.
I hate my life.
I don't know about the AMD side but some motherboards hate all rams slots filled, caused me loads of random stability issues.
That was also using Corsair Ram, all been good since moving over to 2 X 16gig patriot.
For ref I run 9900k, Asus maximus formula x 2080ti, Samsung nvme and crucial ssds.

How does your 1070 struggle, though? I have a 1070 as well and can play everything I'm trying to play just fine.
Including, for example, Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus right now on highest details (via Proton).
Only when running and only when surfing the web. NDU.sys is always the culprit and unfortunately there isn’t really much info other than very generic which suggests it’s probably my specific hardware. As of now, all Sabrent drives are out of my system and I’ll see how this goes. Maybe Sabrent and my Strix aren’t compatible.I would lock the m2 drives down in bios Disable the auto detect.
Do the blue screens ever happen on startup? Or only once running?

Yes, all my drivers are up to date.Can you run dxdiag and dump the txt file online or paste it here? There's usually good troubleshooting info there
tbh sounds like a driver issue. Did you update everything including the bios?
I may go ahead and replace my 4 x 8GB Corsair 3200 sticks and switch them with 2 x 16GB sticks that are rated for 3600. Any suggestions for the best sticks? I have little interested in RGB these days.
It's in the very first post.What motherboard do you have?

I’m not sure if this is your mobo, but as long as you pick from their qualified vendor list, you should be good to go.I may go ahead and replace my 4 x 8GB Corsair 3200 sticks and switch them with 2 x 16GB sticks that are rated for 3600.

Just installed Batman Arkham Aslyum, an ancient game that should run flawlessly on a modern gaming PC -- game is capped at 62FPS, I have the hardware to run it at 250FPS so I go in and start editing .INI files. Eventually I get the game to run at uncapped frames but now there's MASSIVE stuttering -- drops down to 20 FPS sometimes out of nowhere. Seriously, I'd rather play this shit on a PS3. So I do MORE research (lol). Editing more INI files. Somewhat better results. Now I've spent 20 minutes playing the game and 60 minutes troubleshooting.
Welcome to PC gaming!
Sadly I have to agree with this.I know this won't be popular but don't waste your money in AMD. I knew when I saw the thread it would be an AMD processor. They're great for consoles and an annoyance for PC. It's the difference between Dr Pepper and Dr. Thunder.
Isn't that Arkham Knight?Isn't this game known for bad code?
That list is so pathetically out of date, that its worthless. Not one single 3600 DIMM is listed.I’m not sure if this is your mobo, but as long as you pick from their qualified vendor list, you should be good to go.

You're comically incorrect but thanks for that.Never understood the appeal of PC gaming or building one yourself which just seems laughable. Never met anyone that games on a PC so I'm thinking they are a dying breed.

Well, of course, a PC nerd is going to have a problem with my opinion. I just think it's a silly thing to do.Damn I got my daily dose of stupidity early today, thanks.
What is your bios? You can update it from the bios itself, no need for USB stick, because new one actually bring some bigger RAM compatibility list...Yes, all my drivers are up to date.

Your opinion is retarded and the tiniest bit of research will show you that. This isn't exactly the thread for it.Well, of course, a PC nerd is going to have a problem with my opinion. I just think it's a silly thing to do.
I have BIOS version 2407. It's up to date.What is your bios? You can update it from the bios itself, no need for USB stick, because new one actually bring some bigger RAM compatibility list...
ANything is possible, but for the reasons you mention, I'd say it's bloody unlikely. PSU issues would likely manifest themselves at high load such as gaming. I did a complete run of Metro Exodus just over a month ago and am currently doing a run of Metro Last Light Redux. Not once has a bluescreen ever occured due to gaming. I have had some game crashes though, but those games are known to crash quite a bit, so I never thought anything of it.PSU can also cause BSOD - though that tends to be obvious as its when the PC is drawing the most power (e.g. running a modern game at high settings).
Well, that's just not something the 1070 is really good for, honestly.4K ho here. I try to run everything at 4K on high settings before dropping down to 1440/1080.
Well, you might be interested in this then:I have BIOS version 2407. It's up to date.

It's fucked for some people. (Look at comments)
