    Have you contacted Gigabyte support for a BIOS version that works with Shogun2? Most posted on their website don't but they do have a link.

    Here is how old the problem is. http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...2-Incompatible
    AMD dumped the problem into the board makers' laps instead of fixing it themselves is the bottom line.

    All you have to od is update your BIOS.

    Don't blame CA. The game was released two months before AMD released their cpus knowing there were problems with these chips and made the board makers the scapegoats after the fact.. This one is squarely in AMD's lap.

    Did you contact Gigabyte's support people or just take what was posted on their site?
    You have to cnotact them and specifically request the BIOS for Shogun2 for your board. Anything else will get what you just experienced.
    Gigabyte has been the worst of the bunch about this. No trouble with ASUS, Acer, or MSI to mention a few.
