Hi a213m I have an asus b760-I board can't clear write protection. Is there a way to do it? I can do testing on it if needed. I have couple ddr5 sticks with CRC errors and want to restore them. I can boot it even with bad crc to windows and reed spd but can't write to them.
Hi,
Clearing DDR5 RSWP via Smbus with SPD-RW is only possible with Asus's Maximus boards that have
MR_TEST2 jumper. Your best way is to either build an Arduino programmer and use that or physically short HSA pin on your DIMM to ground, boot with one DIMM and use Clear RSWP command. You can short HSA to ground right on the DIMM itself, motherboard's DIMM slot, or better - get a DDR5 slot adapter, and short its HSA contact to GND and install your DIMM via such adapter, then use Clear RSWP command as usual. By default Smbus RSWP command are disabled, to enable check
