I disabled the Generic Microsoft Basic Display Adapter and all good.
Thank you both for the quick great help.

One last question (I hope). Is it normal on these ES processors for Device Manager to show the attached:

That's a new one for me intel inf.
So, the leftover is Quick Assist Tech that aren't identified because of ES? Do they do anything?

Windows 10/11 is not a server OS. no drivers for anything....
the QAT drivers are not included in the ASUS motherboard site because Xeon Ws do not have QAT, only the SPs which normaly not work on W790.
if you want to remove the question marks visit any C741 motherboard support page and DL the Intel QAT drivers from there.
Windows
Linux
what you install first after windows install on every motherboard in the world.
from what planet are you from ?
I always install the chipset and assumed that covered it all. Never had unidentified items after chipset install.
you never installed a unsupported CPU on a motherboards, that's all.
QYFS is for C741, not W790. it works by mistake/history of architectures.
Hello everyone,
I got hold of Asus Pro WS W790E-SAGE SE quite cheaply (not 100% guarantee it is functional) and now I am trying to get it to work.
I tried to test it with Xeon W3-2423 processor that I borrowed, however I did not realize that this socket does not have a tensioner frame as any other LGA seems to have and the pressure on the CPU is solely generated by the cooler, thus I performed only a rather crude test - I placed the CPU to the mounting frame, carefully placed it to the socket, took an Arctic ThreadRipper cooler, placed in on top of the CPU, just to get 00 code. Then I placed a heavy power supply (AX1600i with a cable pack) on top of the cooler which made it go past 00. I tried it with one stick of SAMSUNG M321R8GA0BB0-CQK 64GB 4800MHz, tried it in like 4 slots but in each case it gave me code 53 (incompatible memory). I got the same code when running without any memory at all. I don't know if it is due to rather crude CPU mounting, or the memory is unsupported (it's not in QVL) or the board has an issue.
Anyway, I ordered ARCTIC Freezer 4U-M Rev. 2 cooler and would like to order one of these ES CPUs to test it with. I have read quite a bit in this forum (thank you all for sharing your experiences), but still want to make sure of certain things.
What caught my attention is this offer on eBay for a QYFS: LINK - any experience with the seller? The CPU is sure cheap as hell for what it is, or should I order from someone else? Does the CPU work out of the box with any BIOS version? I know that there might be some C-state issues when installing Windows, but is there any BIOS hackery/mod necessary before mounting the CPU? Is this CPU/platform picky about the memory? Since I am in the EU, I can order and return if not compatible, any recommendations? I need something to at least test the board with, ideally a stick that has good compatibility.
I am actually surprised that this CPU, clearly intended for a different platform, works in this motherboard...
Thank you

Hey guys, did any one have an issue with the asus ws W790E-SAGE on 0215 bios and the QYFS going into the bios and have rhe system freeze up and not respond to the keyboard?
Normally, yes, but in this instance it does not seem to work. I can get into the bios but shortly after the keyboard stops responding. Tried multiple ports and keyboards.
