@Morpheas

I'm happy to hear the driver worked for you.

@infuscomus
Upon testing, I discovered that 2 of the 6 USB ports in my m/b back panel were only operating in USB 2.0 speeds (even though they are 3.1 Gen 1).
So I had to remove the drivers for 1 of the 2 hubs (In device manager) and reinstall my old one. Luckily, that one was the one that was digitally signed.
I am not 100% sure why there's different drivers for the 2 hubs, but I suspect 1 is controlled by the Ryzen CPU and the other one by the m/b chipset?

Either way, ALL the drivers are digitally signed, and so far not a single BSOD.
I've been gaming for 7 hours straight, lol.

Thank you again.

P.S. Basically I mixed the 2 different drivers. 1 for each hub.

@cityhopper : I was able to flash 2.60 thankfully with no problems. I have another question though - I think the USB drivers that I slip-streamed are not working. Once setup is done loading files and I get to the setup screen, I have no USB and no way to input as I have a USB keyboard and USB mouse.

Which USB drivers did you use (the modded ASRock, AMD 1.0.0.13, or AMD 1.0.5.3)? I have the pack from canonking. Or did you have to use a PS/2 keyboard and mouse during setup? Were there any settings you had to change in the BIOS (I have CSM enabled).

I'm guessing I'm missing or forgetting something important (or I have something wrong).

Thank you for your help so far! I was literally about ready to either send the board back or sell it to someone before I learned about the earlier BIOS revision.

I haven't visited this thread in quite sometime and see that canonkong has updated the driver packages, however after downloading them I no longer see the 2.0.0.49 drivers and none of the other packages seem to list 149C in their .inf files. Are any of the current driver packages on page 1 for use with the X570 chipset with Ryzen processors?

EDIT: On second look I found it in the 1.0.0.13 drivers. Are these drivers better than the 2.0.0.49 drivers?

Thanks Morpheas,

I've actually been using the modified Windows 8 drivers from mydigitallife for about 8 months, but am always on the lookout for better drivers (the Windows 8 drivers allow the use of UASP whereas the .49 don't). I appreciate the information about the 1.0.0.13 not working (which saves me from fruitlessly testing them), but I'm surprised that canonkong's download package no longer contains a working 149C driver.

hi guys i have a question i have asus crosshair VIII Hero Wi-Fi i have managed to install win 7 on with canonkong drivers-thanks mate- i also downloaded other drivers from station-drivers.com it's working fine but the audio driver is not fully installed it's lacking sonic studio 3 and sonic radar is there any way to install them on windows 7 ? i have already tried x470 audio drivers but no it said device is not supported

According to this link,



Asus Sonic Studio 3 3.1.3.38259 is suppose to work with and is in use with Windows 7 so you might want to check your version. Also if you could be more specific as to which audio chip's driver didn't install someone might be able to help you find a Windows 7 version.

Hi Morpheas,

The drivers which worked well for me on my MSI X570 Gaming Plus Ryzen 3900X system were the 2.0.0.68, 2.0.0.49, and of course the modified 6.2.9200.22453 (Windows 8 driver). All were stable without BSODs or freezes. Each having both advantages and disadvantages:

The 2.0.0.68 was the fastest for transferring small files, didn't require forced installation, but added 15 sec to my boot time (35 sec total on an M.2 Drive)

The 2.0.0.49 were quite good, booted fast (17 sec total), but like the .68 drivers transferred files with USBSTOR as opposed to UASP and didn't recognize Attached SCSI drives.

The 6.2.9200.22453 are the best so far overall and allow the detection of Mass Storage Devices with UASP transfers.

As to better USB3 drivers, none of the above drivers allow trim on attached SSD drives relying solely on the drives built-in garbage collection, though a poster on a different forum was convinced that it wasn't possible on Windows 7 without changes to the kernel.
They also have poor interaction with the recycle bin when files are deleted on the external drive.

I know, but I can keep dreaming (you can't find anything if your not looking). :-) As to Windows 7, I'm in total agreement. I simply don't know how anyone can put up with the constant merry-go-round of Window 10.

Good!! Very VERY Thank You!!!!

Interesting observation: upgrading to BIOS 4402 on my CH7 fixed my hanging on startup issue with Windows 7, before that I had to reboot and only then Win7 would boot properly.
