[SOLVED] Bios Mode locking/freezing up during Profile lselection.

Hi everyone.

I have been testing my new PC build over the last week or so to iron out any bugs.

Motherboards is a MHVII and one bug that I seemed to have stumbled on is the fact that I can make the BIOS screen lock up when attempting to load a previously saved profile.

The lockup/freeze occurs when switching from my saved default bios profile to my overclocked saved profile.

The freeze occurs as soon as I hit the enter button when attempting to load a saved profile either from the onboard EEROM or a USB stick.

Once frozen - I have to clear cmos and manually re-enter the overclocked profile data. Once I have done this I can then successfully reload my saved OC profile without issue.

Anyone else experience similar issues?

Fixed my issue by selecting onboard graphics in Sytem Agent Configuration (vs Auto) rebooted, then reselecting Auto. All the while switching my display cables to view POSTs. In the end I was able to DISable CSM and post successfully. Profile lock ups have also gone away. Hope this helps someone.

I had the same problem on the ASUS Z170-DELUXE motherboard that purchased 2 weeks ago and with the latest BIOS.
It is unfortunate that this problem is still present.
Anyway the solution with CSM toggling worked for me, thanks!
