Rog Strix 570x-e Asus fix the BIOS - White light when monitor is off.

Hello Asus,

I'm having issues with the well-known problem regarding the white light. When you power on the computer with the monitor off or come out of standby/hibernation with the monitor in safe mode, the motherboard VGA white light turns on. The only way to bypass this bug is to turn on the monitor first, then turn on the PC, or send the computer to standby and then bring it out with the monitor turned on. This is very annoying, and I have not found any way around turning the light off for good or disabling this bug. I tried turning off Q-Code, but it didn't work. This issue was encountered by other Asus motherboard users too.

My specs:
5700x3D
4080 super
570x-E

Hello @rbonill18 

Thank you for reaching out to us.
May I confirm if the white light you mentioned is the VGA Q-LED? In the two scenarios, does the screen display correctly once the monitor powered on?

If so, during the POST process, it is expected behavior for the VGA Q-LED to light up when the monitor is powered off or not connected. Similarly, when waking the system, the VGA Q-LED may also light up if no video input source is detected.

Thank you.

There should be an option to disable the light completly. I'm switching to another brand next build because it's too annoying.
