Massman Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Hey all, Just browing through the Fatal1ty Z87 Professional bios and found a tech support section. Seems like you can send an email straight from the BIOS to request tech support. Does any other board have this? It's a genuine question - first time I ever saw this but I don't usually look for it. It's not really a super-useful function for us overclockers, but pretty neat idea nonetheless! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoF Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Wonder how they use internet / wifi there to actually send it out?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 You can set up the internet connection in the BIOS as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanCutress Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 It's on all the boards, and in the A-Tuning OS software on the disk http://anandtech.com/show/6989/11 The UEFI Tech Service option is designed to send problem reports to ASRock directly from the BIOS. This feature only works if you have a wired Ethernet connection to the internet, and sends ASRock an email with the BIOS information used as well as a description provided by the user. There is a similar feature in the OS software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calathea Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Oh I can see how this will work "Hi ASRock, my cpu can't overclock to 5 g, what's wrong?" "Hi ASRock, how do I flash bios?" "Hi ASRock, todays it's raining outside can you do something about that?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobnova Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 The Z77 board had a tech support emailer program for Windows, but not BIOS. That's kind of cool. Wonder if their tech support is actually worth talking to. I could have sworn I read somewhere about a tech support chat built into BIOS on something. Don't remember what or where though.
