Reply To: X98 Plus Tricks/Tips

[Jakob]

Hi everyone!

I try to follow MadMax’s steps to set the x98 Plus up. Thanks Max for the list!

The dead pixel test went fine, but I got stucked at the BIOS-Update. When I stard the program, there are only weird charcters and numbers. After I gave in the model number, there is proper English text. But still I’m afraid to run the update since it can brick uourndevice. So I wanted to ask whether it’s normal tht way? Shoud I make a backup before I get started? Is an image of the hard drive good enough? Do I need any external devices for the update or the Windows restet, like a USB keyboardor mouse?

Thanks a lot,

Jakob
