Aorus Gaming 8 BIOS resetting back to F3

Aorus Gaming 8 BIOS resetting back to F3
« on: April 19, 2017, 06:28:58 pm »
Hello,

I have had the gaming 8 since sunday and twice it has reset itself from bios F5 and downgraded back to F3 on it's own. What happens is I shut down the PC at night, come back in the morning and it's turned itself on and reset its BIOS to factory settings. I can't figure out where the issue is.

Thank you

You can always flash your back up bios so then it will just revert to F5. In the meantime you need to figure out why it is turning itself on. A good place to start is checking your start wire for a short on the motherboard or on the case itself.

I had similar issues.
What has the network cable got to do with this issue?
