| 1123417 | 2010-07-30 11:51:00 | Can someone please tell me how to turn off that quickstart thing ASUS has that lets you hit the internet etc without booting up? | DeSade (984) | ||
| 1123418 | 2010-07-30 15:21:00 | I'm guessing there's an option in the BIOS somewhere (but I don't really know) | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 1123419 | 2010-07-30 20:46:00 | Its probably in the BIOS (Express Gate) ? | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1123420 | 2010-07-30 21:46:00 | Yes Express Gate is the name. Trouble is this bypasses the bios so I am not sure how to access it. |

| 1123421 | 2010-07-30 22:02:00 | Well, it's either in the BIOS (look in the BIOS), disable it. Or you can install it. If its installed, uninstall it | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1123422 | 2010-07-30 23:05:00 | thought express gate was stamped on a chip? | nedkelly (9059) | ||
| 1123423 | 2010-07-30 23:41:00 | It is a chip that allows some things to run without booting into windows. And I am sure it is bios controlled as there is nothing in software. But the issue is the Express Gate bypasses all normal boot screens so I cannot see anyway into the Bios. |

| 1123424 | 2010-07-30 23:48:00 | Might be lurking under services, either under Control panel - Administration Tools - Local Services; Or Msconfig then services tab, where can be stopped/disabled. Or try a utility like what's running net (www.whatsrunning.net/) to pinpoint it for disabling. I had similar issue with adware after uninstalling it, there were references hanging about, but found it remained under services. Or unless there is a removal tool, similar to Norton's... |

| 1123425 | 2010-07-31 00:08:00 | Maybe a anti virus boot scan may be able to detect/allow removal. I used Avast 5 and set to and run for boot time scan - and found a few fragments/corrupt files. Also Sysinternals Autoruns might help diagnose. | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||
| 1123426 | 2010-07-31 00:21:00 | Its either an option in the BIOS or you can install it (its also a program). This mobo supports it, but I've disabled it. Because it doesnt support AHCI, or RAID mode | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
