How To Launch CSM On ASUS Motherboard?

To launch the CSM (Compatibility Support Module) on an ASUS motherboard, follow these general steps if the option is grayed out and non-configurable due to a specific motherboard chipset, like Intel's 500 series:

1. Ensure that you are using a graphics card that supports UEFI VBIOS. According to the ASUS support documentation, Nvidia GTX 1000 series or above, and AMD RX5000 series or above are adequate. If you're using integrated graphics, a discrete graphics card is required.

2. Power off your computer and locate the appropriate BIOS hotkey for your ASUS motherboard, which is often F2 or Delete. Press this key during the startup to enter the BIOS setup.

3. Navigate to the Boot tab within the BIOS menu. This may involve using the arrow keys or other navigation keys.

4. Locate the CSM (Compatibility Support Module) option.

5. With your compatible graphics card installed, you should be able to enable CSM. If it's still grayed out, double-check your graphics card compatibility with the manufacturer's specifications.

6. Save and exit the BIOS settings; this can usually be done by navigating to the exit menu and selecting "Save and Exit". The computer will then restart with the new settings applied.

Please note that the exact steps and interface may vary slightly between ASUS motherboard models, but the core process remains the same.
