Just put together a new system and it is booting up fine. The problem is if I disable CSM it won?™t POST. I?™ve narrowed it down to the Video Oprom setting. It will only boot if it is in legacy mode.


This is all brand new hardware so surely it should be able to go 100% UEFI. I?™ve seen others with this mobo who are disabling CSM just fine. I have a GTX 1080Ti and I don?™t understand why it needs legacy mode. Right now it is outputting HDMI to a Hisense 4K TV.


Specs:

ASRock x399 Professional Gaming

Threadripper 1950x

32GB G.Skill DDR4 PC3200

EVGA GTX 1080Ti SC2

3x Samsung 960 Pro 1TB M.2


(Please note this has absolutely nothing to do with Windows. I am not even to the point of installing an OS yet.)

[URL=][/URL]Maybe your issue is similar to the one in this thread:

http://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=8356&title=x399-taichi-csm-bug-code-0e

In which case the original poster emailed ASRock but they didn't get back to him.

What error code do you get? I get 0E when I disable CSM + IOMMU, but I can turn off CSM on its own fine.

Weird thing is the debug LEDs turn off so I don't even know what error it is giving.

bnetetard - I have an rx570 - slightly older hardware of course.. but it has a switch on it to switch between bios and uefi 

I couldnt turn the csm off until I had flipped that switch.  I dont know your hardware, but may be something to look for.

Yeah no such switch on my card. According to EVGA all of their 1080s should support UEFI.

I just installed Windows and confirmed it is in UEFI mode in msinfo32.

I guess I will have to leave CSM On and leave video OPROM in Legacy mode.

Am I to understand that this prevents me from booting to an NVME RAID? Because that is something I want to do.
