C5F-Z what is q-table code 05?

[D_V_D]

Guys..I'm having an issue here...I'm having 05 code on the motherboard q-table...Last time it happened when i shut dawn my PC and 2 days ago...The system is not in OC...To the contrary...I have turbo disabled in bios as well as C1E and Cool&Quiet but EPU in auto and pretty much everything on Auto.

When this code happens...I can't do anything but reset my system via reset button...and goes to normal until a few days will pass making the same thing over...

Does anyone know why this code? Did someone else had it?
I don't even see it in the book. Can someone confirm that?
If there's anything that i need to add in providing more info about the system, I'll say...for now is what came my mind

What frequency were you trying to run Memtest86+ at?

Well according to the screenshot that is plain Memtest86. Use Memtest86+ from here:http://www.memtest.org/

Do you mean what frequency i had in bios?...RAM?..CPU?...Ok,Ram was 1600Mhz(803Mhz) Cas=9-9-9-27 CR2 Cpu was 4013 turbo disabled, no EPU,no Cool&Quiet,no C1E...

I followed HiVizMan's tutorial Sig..1Gb usb, set it in bios as first boot and reboot...BTW..i took my download from this site...the one called Download - Auto-installer for USB Key (Win 9x/2k/xp/7) *NEW!* v4.20 of course...Did i use the right one?

Oh nevermind, my bad cause the screenshot is noisy heh. You got the right one.

Got another 05 code...EPU dissabled, ram profile#1(1600Mhz cas 9-9-9-27), cpu core disabled, C1E enabled and C6 enabled

In another day while i was playing an old game i got code C5 witch i also don't find it in the book and code 30(that's in the book)...Here is how it happened:
I was playing this old game for the sake of times(X-Men Legends 2) and paused the game for i had some errands to do(didn't know it will take long for what i had to do)...when i came back, my pc entered in sleep mode with the game i presume in memory...i pressed "space" and my pc opened again with no problems...looked at the q-table and had C5(not 05) and continued to play for a time and had to reset (press start and reset)because it would freeze from time to time(1sec freeze) and then had q-table code 30. Reset it again and got my q-table at normal(AA).

30 is to be expected and is the correct code. That is what my system will always be on, resumed from sleep.

Your not alone but for the Code 05 appears everytime im shutting down my computer. My windows shuts down but my computer is still power on, so all the fans are working and the Q-Code is 05. I think it's started since I was putting my computer to sleep instead of shutting down and now i'm trying to shut down it restarts or its sleeping kind of.

Exactly the same here!! Hoping someone would know. Was hoping Asus might actually respond as they haven't put the q-code in the book!!!! got £600 quids worth of equipment that im close to sending back. Massive disappointment so far. Just hope its something simple.

List your equipment and maybe we can help you, or send the stuff back and go a different route. Ultimately the consumer has to be happy with what they buy you know what I am saying here.

I have no idea how you or any other user get code 5, it has to be a hardware compatibility issue but just what I do not know.

I thought i am alone having that 05 code...OR had.

Finally i changed my GPU from Asus 8800 GTS 512/256(very old) to Asus GTX 760 2Gb/256(made this year)...I never had a 05 code with the new GPU...Even my CPU and MB temperatures have fallen significantly...These are the temps now as i write this down: MB temp from 24C to 26C, CPU Temp from 34C to 39C and GPU temp from 29C to 31C with 8 TABS opened via Google Chrome,Control Panel Opened, running an MP4 movie @1574x1063 and AIDA64 opened.
I also played ANNO 2070 @1600x1200 on max graphics for a few days...at least 8 hours a day...I wanted to make sure i don't have that code, thinking that playing that game will stress the system in giving me a 05 code...Done some benchmarks as well...Even had my "Kill a Watt" device in the wall socket while doing the above but still no 05 code...My tower only consumes from 107W to 126W just doing the above..add 30w the monitor and 35w the audio system doesn't reach 200w...I have them all under the same device measurement...Played ANNO 2070 is a diffrent story...only the tower consumes from 320 to 378W...Turns out my PSU is more than enough.

In UEFI: Ram @1600 CAS 9-9-9-27
NB Clock @2400Mhz
HT Clock @2600Mhz
EPU Disabled
Cool&Quiet Disabled
C1E Enabled
Core C6 State Enabled
The rest is on AUTO


I will get back when ever I'll get that 05 code again...Still want to know what was the cause for that code because I'm still not sure what caused it in the first place.
I guess it was GPU related and not PSU...Boy,it made so much noise and heat that old GPU...good riddance.
BTW...the GPU came out with a game coupon....Batman: Arkham Origins witch will be released 25-October-2013 if i don't mistake...Sweet.
