MODERATORS
Was that a specific bios/uefi setting(s)?
yes, but IDK what it's called off the top of my head. I got suspicious after noticing firewall logs to asus before the spamming Microsoft logs. the setting also lets the bios talk to the os by providing drivers during the Windows oobe, it will inject the Asus software like it's preinstalled like OEM supplied. pissed me off because I have a iso of windows from ma visual studio download that's basically the latest widows patched.i was like ....blank slate, should just be Microsoft wtf is Asus junk software doing there?!
