a number of people have had to reload after installing bios 305 #9

Hello, myself and numerous others had to reinstall windows after bios was installed. I believe the issue was Core Isolation not functioning correctly after the update, and it being turned on by default with a fresh load of windows and breaking. It usually takes a bit of time to show up, but will end up showing up, so it might be worth recommending that people update the bios immediately or be prepared for this to be potentially necessary if they update bios.

Wow that sucks... So let me see if I understand. The new BIOS v3.0.5 once installed it has an issue that prevents windows from starting and it breaks it. And the solution to this is doing a fresh windows installation? And to prevent this from happening you mention to update the BIOS but it is already updated so I assume you meant downgrade it to something different than v3.0.5?
