    GA-Z87N-WIFI - dual boot question

    I have successfully built a new computer with GA-Z87N-WIFI and Intel Core i7-4790K. I partitioned the 1TB HDD to 599GB for OSX Mavericks and 400GB for Windows 7. I installed Mavericks and got it all up and running so that it would boot into OSX from the HDD etc. Then I created a bootable USB...

    GA-Z87N-WiFi - new build won't power up

    I must report my progress at last. I installed a Celeron G1820 and was then able to sucessfully get into the BIOS, which was F2, and successfully flashed it to F5. Then swapped the CPU back to the i7-4790K, and I'm currently back in the BIOS. Now about to setup the BIOS and then install...

    GA-Z87N-WiFi - new build won't power up

    Hi josiah10000 - I've installed a replacement mobo and at last I have lights and case fans spinning. It won't get to BIOS though so I guess I need to flash an F5 BIOS, so will order a Celeron G1820 for that. Will let you know how I get on... Will appreciate if you could do the same on your...

    GA-Z87N-WiFi - new build won't power up

    I take it that the GA-Z87N-WIFI mobo comes with BIOS F4? If I get a cheap Celeron CPU, e.g. G1820, I would be able to flash the BIOS ok then?

    GA-Z87N-WiFi - new build won't power up

    I have an Intel i7-3770K on my other Hackintosh that has the GA-Z77X-UP5-TH motherboard, would this new motherboard take this CPU to enable me to flash the BIOS to F5?

    GA-Z87N-WiFi - new build won't power up

    Thanks, I'll bear that in mind. At the moment the motherboard doesn't even show any signs of life, CPU cooler fan or case fan doesn't even attempt to spin. I'm waiting for a replacement motherboard now. What version of the BIOS does this motherboard ship with? I see it needs F5 for the i7 4790K.
