Anyone else have this? Wondering if it is in anyway related to the board. If not, any way to stop it? It also changes to "turn off screen" to 1 hour and the other option constantly that I want checked to never.

Uninstall AI Suite, delete all traces of it and forget it exists. Full of bugs after many years. I refuse to try it again after it toasted two BIOS ROMs on a high end board. Fortunately for me the ROMs were still socketed and I found two on fleabay and replaced them to get back up. Its a PITA to get rid of too. a lot of folks end up having to do a clean install to remove all the traces of it as the uninstall leaves behind a lot of orphan files that will haunt you. There are 3rd party apps to clean the registry after you have found all the files that are left behind after the uninstall is done and delete them. I dont like anything that does hard writes to BIOS files while the machine is running. This is perhaps the worst software ASUS has ever released. You can look at how long some of the "Post here if you have issues" threads that have thousands of views and huindreds of posts. Tell you everything you need to know. If it was working as intended there would be no need for such a thread. Its not like its listed as a Beta release. I even tried that with GPU tweak, the Beta testing< but in the end the next release still wouldnt work. Its a shame when MSI afterburner of EVGA precision X works better on cards they dont even make.

ASUS makes great hardware but the only software Ive used that worked is the gaming center on a laptop. AI Suite is broke, Crate is broke GPU Tweak is Broke and BIOS updates come at a glacial pace.

Actually, uninstall AI Suite and then reset your BIOS. Jot down your OC settings that doesn't relate to power management (Do not back-up your BIOS). You can apply your OC settings manually later. Once you apply your OC then reinstall AI Suite and only use AI Suite for fan control and monitoring. Only monitor within the app. The reason why I say this is because AI Suite is linked to the UEFI Firmware (BIOS).
