Säännöllinen huolto auttaa varmistamaan emolevyn pitkän käyttöiän ja optimaalisen suorituskyvyn.

• Pidä puhtaana: Periodically clean dust from inside your PC case, especially from the motherboard, CPU cooler, and fan vents, using compressed air.
• BIOS-päivitykset: Tarkista ASUS-tuki website for the latest BIOS updates. Updating the BIOS can improve system stability, compatibility, and performance.
• Ohjaimen päivitykset: Keep your motherboard drivers updated to ensure compatibility with new software and hardware.
• Fyysinen tarkastus: Occasionally inspect the motherboard for any loose connections, damaged components, or signs of overheating.

6. Vianmääritys

If you encounter issues, refer to these common troubleshooting tips:

• Ei virtaa/ei käynnistystä:
  • Varmista, että kaikki virtakaapelit (24-nastainen ATX, 8-nastainen CPU) on kytketty kunnolla.
  • Verify the power supply is functional and switched on.
  • Tarkista etupaneelin virtakytkimen liitännät.
• Ei näyttöä:
  • Confirm the monitor is connected to the graphics card (not the motherboard I/O if using a dedicated GPU).
  • Aseta näytönohjain ja RAM-moduulit uudelleen paikoilleen.
  • Testaa yhdellä RAM-muistitikulla eri paikoissa.
• Järjestelmän epävakaus/kaatumiset:
  • Tarkista suorittimen ja näytönohjaimen lämpötilat.
  • Ensure RAM is compatible and running at stable speeds (disable XMP/DOCP for testing).
  • Päivitä BIOS ja ajurit.
• Oheislaitteiden ongelmat:
  • Verify peripheral drivers are installed and up to date.
