One problem that I have with my new machine (other than not plugging in all of the power connectors at the start...) is that I am getting a μCode error on POST.
Seems like the BIOS needs to be updated for the latest Intel CPU stepping. Fine, no problem, I can do that.
Friday: Just go on over there to the ASUS support site... Hmm page not working. Saturday: Cool, page is up, search for P5B Deluxe, click on the WiFi edition... Click on downloads... hmm timeout. Saturday afternoon, Sunday: Nice, the downloads page is working now. Find the latest BIOS, there, download from USA - nope timeout, Global - instant timeout, Europe? - nada, China, Japan? - nope and no. Grr. Today: Yeah hay! It works... Well... from the Europe link anyways... But they (6.6MB, 9.6MB, 4.3MB) are downloading at 3.3KB/sec...
This is gonna take a while.
