Asus Z690 Extreme, RTX4090 boot loop

[Skhitzo]

This is no fix but I have been able to run a few games cosistently doing this.

At boot (if you have time) go straight to device manger and uninstall 4090 but DON'T delete the driver.
Then let the system redetect or scan yourself for new hardware.
Mine then works and temps and so on are again displayed on NZXT cooler.
Have been able to play a few games so far but don't think it's a fix in particular.

Hope this helps for now.

This does not help for me. Tried it. It doesn't reboot automatically that way but every 3d app or games crashes

Guess we have to wait for updates. What a waste of the weekend.

If it's an Asus problem, be prepared to wait months without any feedback from their counterparts

I tried it and it didn't worked. Using latest driver 522.25

Did you try with the new PSU?

Yes, same problem, it's not the PSU.
I tried my brother's PSU an HX1000 and a new one an HX1500i for my wife.
I have an HX1200i.

Three PSUs same problem

I have managed JUST to squeeze into the above PCI slot and it's working fine. Rubbish airflow but it's working.

Is there someone from Asus that can comment on this please?

I don’t have a 4090, but I ran across this video at YouTube which might help. ??

Note that in the video I posted that Jay is using different hardware yet has similar issues. I’m thinking a common thread might emerge to give everyone an idea about what’s going on.
