CPU Lag
July 1st, 2021
Does your CPU and RAM get identified correctly by the Bios?
CPU temperatures probably
Also disconnect your DVD drive and see it still occurs. P5Q’s hate IDE drives of all types
yeah it gets identified correctly and my temps are pretty cool about low 30 graphics card around 41
in what order did you install your drivers?
Driver installation should follow the order of:
- Chipset INF
DX9/10
All other drivers
Then Video
umm chipset idk, dirext x idk all other drivers yeah and video yeah
Lilg,
What OS are you running? Go to this site http://support.intel.com/support/chipsets/sb/CS-028823.htm
and download the p43 express chipset drivers. uninstall your video drivers and reboot. hit cancel when the system says it detected new hardware, install the file you just downloaded, reboot then reinstall the video driver. that may clear up your issue.
for future reference, here is the official driver installation order from intel.

Some motherboards come with outdated BIOS. For some of those motherboards, you have to update the BIOS for the extra cores to be used properly. That could be the problem here – an outdated BIOS that was supposed to be update but wasn’t.
Good thinking DGray, I forgot about that one.
but dont i need to download the one for p45 right? and If the bios gets messed up during up date dont u have to get another motherboard or chip or something?

It should be the same file for both but grab the one for the p45, the board I was looking at on Asus’ site said it was a P43 chipset, sorry about that. Use the Asus update utility off the motherboard CD for the bios, you can do the update within windows then reboot.
ok well i cant get any for the different vistas, i just have to get the one thats for the 32 regular one i guess
ok well i went to the website and it said that i already had the newest driver update wen i downloaded the one from the site, so do you all think it’s the bios, i need to updatE?
I know of a similar problem a member called .:matie:. had which I helped him out with. What fixed it for him was updating the BIOS and buying a SATA DVDRW drive.

Updating your BIOS will most likely allow the system to properly use all four cores of your processor. It’s well worth updating your BIOS. Even if it doesn’t help, which I doubt will happen since an outdated BIOS is the problem is most cases such as these, it’s good for the system to have the latest BIOS version for multiple other reasons.
At other pace, update your BIOS and see if it helps.
ok well i need to update my bios, i already have a sata dvdrw drive
ok how do i update my bios?
Download the BIOS update under BIOS and the Afudos BIOS update tool under BIOS-Utilities. Use the BIOS update with the Afudos update tool. The rest will be automatic. Also disable UAC

how do i disable uac?
Turn off UAC Using Control Panel
– Click Start and then open Control Panel. – Click User Accounts. – Click Turn User Account Control on or off. – Clear the tick or check mark on the box beside the Use User Account Control (UAC) to help protect your computer option. – Click OK. – Note that the changes will take affect after restarting the computer.
ok it was never on, and when i tried to use the the program to update the bios it came on the screen then went away, what do i need to do?
anybody kno wat to do?
I wouldn’t give any advice about updating the Bios in windows as I have a few disasters in the past…
well how do i update them then??? no one is explaining it to me
you have the “DOS” tool, for non windows command line updating
check asus’s web site for the windows utility which runs from the desktop
follow the “how to update bios” link I think
if you still have the mobo CD it may be on there
or if there’s a F* key during post (like F8 to flash bios) put the new bios into a folder in the root directory so it’s EZ to find (name it bios or something less than 8 letters) and try it that way
