Hello and welcome Personlikeperson. I have made a thread for your request here]]> Tue, 21 Jul 2026 14:41:19 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113252&PID=201837&title=new-member-intel-motherboard-thread#201837 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113553&PID=201836&title=h97m-pro4-tpm-2-0-bios-request#201836 Author: Xaltar

Hello and welcome Personlikeperson. ASRock does not provide custom BIOS versions
to support TPM 2.0. Any evidence that they do is old, circa 2021-2023. All platforms
not supported by Windows 11 are now officially EOL (End Of Life) and are no longer
supported. There was a brief window where some older platforms were still within
their service window but not supported by Windows 11.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.]]> Tue, 21 Jul 2026 14:40:10 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113553&PID=201836&title=h97m-pro4-tpm-2-0-bios-request#201836 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113553&PID=201832&title=h97m-pro4-tpm-2-0-bios-request#201832 Author: Personlikeperson

Hello, I recently purchased an h97m pro4 motherboard as well as the tpm2.0 module. Could I please get the special BIOS needed to activate 2.0?

You can try sending them a private message and asking. They should get an email
notifying them that they received one.

Good luck.]]> Sat, 18 Jul 2026 23:05:26 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113536&PID=201821&title=b860-proa-wifi-no-post-dram-light-on#201821 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113536&PID=201820&title=b860-proa-wifi-no-post-dram-light-on#201820 Author: Alxime

Could you tell us which RAM kit did you get at the end?

If you are concerned about safety then you will want to disconnect the system
from power, press and hold the power button to discharge capacitors then swap
the battery with a new one.

Yes, you will lose your BIOS settings. Technically you can swap the battery with
the system connected to power and the settings should remain but then you run the
risk of shorting something if the battery pops out of the holder onto the board.
Not really worth the risk for the sake of BIOS settings. ]]> Tue, 14 Jul 2026 14:07:16 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113532&PID=201799&title=z77-extreme-4-security-certificate-2023#201799 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113532&PID=201798&title=z77-extreme-4-security-certificate-2023#201798 Author: tolunq

Hello,
Another problem with this 2013 ASRock Z77 Extreme 4 motherboard.

My desktop PC hasn't been keeping the correct date and time for the past two days... it automatically resets to 2013...

I have to go into the BIOS and reconfigure it, but every time I restart it, the same thing happens.

I am guessing the CR2032 coin cell battery is dead??It is the original one, so I am not going to complain.

Just to confirm, aside from replacing the battery, is there anything else I need to do?

Will I lose my BIOS settings? Will it revert to its default, factory settings?

Are there any precautions I should take before replacing the battery ?

Thanks again for any help.

Best regards

RAM compatibility has been a much more common issue since DDR4. It's even worse now
with RAM prices being what they are. Going with a whatever kit is available can
sometimes bite you.

My repair shop also told me it was a compatibility issue haha, I'm returning my RAM rn and will be buying a new kit thats on the QVL, hopefully it works out for you as well man!]]> Mon, 13 Jul 2026 02:17:36 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113536&PID=201793&title=b860-proa-wifi-no-post-dram-light-on#201793 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113548&PID=201784&title=h370mhdv-m-2-tx750-v2-issue#201784 Author: Xaltar

That model was released in 2011 so it doesn't properly support modern sleep states
etc. It is remotely possible that it could be a compatibility issue but the H370
board and the H270 board are not that different feature wise so I doubt it. The
H370 board does have a more demanding VRM section to support higher core counts on
8th and 9th gen CPUs. I would guess that is what is triggering safeties on the H370
system. That is a clear indicator of instability in the PSU.

Personally, I wouldn't risk it if it's an important system. If it's a spare PC
that you don't care about then by all means go ahead but there is always a risk
of catastrophic failure with faulty PSUs. Corsair is pretty good with their safeties
but I still wouldn't be comfortable saying go ahead and use it till it dies.

The key issue is that faulty is more likely to end with catastrophic failure (shorted
capacitors etc). As capacitors go bad they have a nasty habit of causing damage
to other components like mosfets and resistor arrays. These have a nasty tendency
to explode and dead short, even more so than capacitors which are already at risk.

Basically, don't mess around with power delivery. You will be fine 9 times out
of 10 but that one time will be when you absolutely can't afford the expense or
it will take out more than just the PSU. I have been burned myself with this in
the past. It cost me data, data I could never replace. ]]> Wed, 08 Jul 2026 00:05:57 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113548&PID=201784&title=h370mhdv-m-2-tx750-v2-issue#201784
