Problem related to motherboard. Please help!

[Andy543]

So I am trying to install Asus Ai Suite 3 for my Asus H81-GAMER motherboard and it just says "Can't open AsIO.sys !! ( 2 ).

Can someone help me please? I would really appreciate this. I've seen some people saying that after a Windows reinstall it worked but I really don't want to do that because I would need to install back all the drivers and do all the settings all over again and that takes me between 1 and 2 hours...maybe even more I don't really watch the time when I do that but it really feels like ages. So if someone can help me I would really really appreciate it.

Try running the "Setup" application file instead.

What version of Windows are you running? The H81 chipset is pretty dated, only thing that I can think of is that version of AI suite isn't supported by your version of Windows. I don't even think the AI suite link on your motherboard support page is still updated. You may need to find a newer version that may have a better chance of being compatible.

I just went on the support page on their site for my motherboard and downloaded Ai Suite 3 from there.

Is the version of AI Suite 3 you're downloading the one from your motherboard support page?

Ok that's why, that's an outdated version not compatible with Windows 10 1909 you need to download the most recent version of AI Suite.

And where do I find that? Can you link it here or something?

Do I download Ai Suite from other motherboards? Because the one that I downloaded is the newest one for my motherboard and I can't find a download Ai Suite general if you understand. I think it's motherboard specific or something.

I can't find any that are up to date, I don't think it's a currently support program, everything I have read says that Asus' new utility is Armory Crate. Unfortunately I don't think it's going to do with what you want due to the age of the motherboard and it not being supported anymore.

Well that sucks. This motherboard+processor+ram was everything I could afford when I bought it, couldn't afford anything newer so yeah. F Ai Suite and F Asus for not supporting it anymore. Thanks for all your help guys! Sorry to take your time...
