*Using Windows 7
hi euonline,

i was wondering...
in windows 7, when using a bios that works with S3 (F5e for me).
do you have any errors in the event viewer after waking the pc?
i installed a copy of 7048 x64 the other day and i've started noticing some Event 12, Microsoft-Windows-HAL errors after waking my pc, even at completely stock settings:

"The platform firmware has corrupted memory across the previous system power transition. Please check for updated firmware for your system."

You No need to change nothing in the BIOS,Optimized setting can detect 7-7-7-20(or higher),but is in Auto.Leave everything in Auto and your RAM will be 9-9-9-24 in Windows.

Only in BIOS F8f is added this function.
Q-Flash came together with BIOS,you cann't install separate.
