when ever EHCI handoff is active, when I switch viewing screen or viewing mode's

Hello Genesys,

Thanks for the information you sent to me. After reviewing your case it looks like a BIOS issue. This is because the GOP firmware can be updated through BIOS update only. For this specific issue you are having the best option would be contacting ASUS* directly so they can try to reproduce the issue in their lab with the same motherboard model. If they can reproduce the issue in their lab then they should be able to find the root cause of the problem. Regards,Fred

ok thanks I will try that

It will help if you on behalf of Intel

would connect Asus too and ask them to explain why do their BIOS releasing process

does not include intel firmware update on this model Asus z97 pro gamer

since1st BIOS release 0202 till this latest 2203

intel raid + sata firmware is the same

intel GB network i218-v(2) firmware is them same

intel MEI firmware was the same (I have updated it manually to latest allowed by chipset)

intel CPU code was the same (got updated when I used gigabyte motherboard and did a BIOS update so cpu got a new micro code)

intel GOP + VBIOS is the same

the only thing I noticed that got updated was the number of the BIOS version ?

can you open an investigation ?

Hello Genesys,

What happens is that we just provide the components to them so they can build their systems. Each computer manufacturer will decide what updates they will include in their drivers and BIOS versions. The best option would be checking with ASUS* if they can reproduce the issue in their lab. Regards,Fred
