Since a couple of days I have an NUC6i5SYH. Up to now (unfortunately) not a very pleasant experience. After freezes, reboots, M.2 ssd not found etc.etc. I just got a whea_uncorrectable_error and a booting loop.
My setup is;
Samsung SODIMM DDR4-2133 8GB
Samsung Evo 850 m.2 ssd 240gb
Samsung Evo 850 sata ssd 500gb
Don't know what to do any more.
Any suggestions?
I bought a refurbished Intel NUC (Model DC53427HYE) back in Oct 2015. It works great but the fan is getting quite loud and sounds about ready to fail. I'd rather replace it now before it goes. Does anyone know the part number for a replacement ? I see a few for sale on eBay but they don't list the models they fit.
Thanks in advance,
Glenn
Ich habe Probleme mit einer Windows 7 Installation. Bei der Installation sieht Windows 7 die SSD nicht und ich kann es nicht installieren.
Hat jemand einen Tipp?
Hi,
Short story:
I would like to perform a factory reset (aka CMOS reset) on this board but can't find any instruction not using the BIOS. So this is impossible on a bricked board...
The board bricked while following Intel® NUC BIOS Recovery Update Instructions to try to restore a previous version of the BIOS. But as soon as I removed the jumper, the board only started once, asking me to insert a USB key with a BIOS to restore (which I didn't, I was simply looking at this boot mode before using it). So I stopped the board, inserted the USB key, started it again and it no longer started. The board now always starts and stops silently after 4 seconds. No beeps, no blinking leds (just a normal blue one, as when it correctly worked). Note that before that I tried Computer Won't Boot After BIOS Update instructions but the BIOS did not offer the option "Press F9 to restore BIOS factory default values." as stated (I had "Restore Default Values" instead which did not reset the CMOS as stated...).
Here are two videos of the Bricked NUC - YouTube with and without the jumper. I also tried to unplug/plug every devices (keyboard, hard drive, monitor) and the result is the same
Longer story:
I just spent two crazy days debugging this board because of its buggy firmware. I had to upgrade to the latest firmware version to get rid of the headless mode bug but while it corrected this bug, it created a lot more (grub2 error about EFI services) et linux not able to stop the machine unless I put the OS type as Windows in the BIOS. This setting seems to change ACPI things... But with this mode, I can no longer boot from the eMMC ! So I decided to go back to the original less buggy version of the firmware and started a reset process described above.
I'll post EFI tests on another post for the record and your firmware team. But for now, this is a huge nogo on Intel NUC boards... We would be really happy to find a solution a least on this.
What driver do I need?
I have BIOS 0033 installed.
Does Windows need a separate driver for the m.2?
Is there anything else that I need to get Win10 on this thing?
Hi,
I have a new NUC5PPYB here which I want to use as HTPC (OpenELEC). Trying to set it up, I noticed that my USB keyboard (Logitech diNovo Mini) became slow after a while. Key presses took long to appear on the screen or were entirely dropped. Attempting to fix the issue, I went into the BIOS and found out that, after a while, the keyboard became veeeeeery sloooooooooow there as well. So I thought my keyboard must be broken and tried another USB keyboard (Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic keyboard). Interestingly, inputs with this became slow after a while as well. I switched USB ports for the keyboard transmitter, but that did not help.
Is there a known issue with the NUC5PPYB and wireless (Bluetooth) USB keyboards? The Microsoft keyboard is my daily desktop keyboard (Win and Linux machines), so I'm pretty sure it's not broken. But there must be an issue somewhere.

Thanks for any help, Chris
I have an Intel NUC6i3SYH with GX driver 15.40.13.4331 connected via HDMI to a Onkyo AV receiver and my issue is same as the one below
When changing input sources on the receiver and then coming back to the NUC's HDMI source, a black screen appears.
The only way to regain a signal is to reboot the NUC but this is not desirable - I wish to leave the NUC running and be able to switch back and forth to other sources
As other people have mentioned it seems that is not an uncommon problem and some other NUC models are suffering from the same HDMI sync/handshake problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, perhaps a revised driver or BIOS is required?
UPDATE: The problem went away when I replaced the RAM with Kingston HyperX.
------------------------------------------------------------
Been trying to install some flavor of Linux on my new NUC all day but it keeps freezing randomly. Both mouse and keyboard stops working. Once it happened while I was in Intel Visual BIOS.
NUC6i3SYH, 1 * 4GB Corsair in lower slot, wired keyboard and mouse, wired ethernet, HDMI to monitor.
I managed to install Ubuntu 15.10 to an old Hitachi HD, but I removed it to eliminate it as a source for the problems. While I was booting off the HD I tried installing Steam and its downloader complained a couple of times about checksum errors before the whole computer froze as usual.
I have reset the BIOS (F9).
I can (usually) boot Ubuntu off a USB stick, but if I open Firefox and browse the web it freezes within a couple of minutes. The Ubuntu LiveUSB has an option to verify its files, and doing this tells me that some files are corrupted. However, if I run the exact same test on my PC it says all files are ok. I've tried two USB sticks, one USB 2 and one USB 3, with the same result.
MemTest86 has currently been running for more than 1 hour without any errors.
Possibly unrelated error:
Visual BIOS always says network disconnected, even though I have cable connected (leds are on, and it works if I run an OS) and disabled legacy boot.
Here are some of the issues witnessed with the NUC6i5SYK and Ubuntu 15.10:
By the way, I also have a Macbook Air that I use via mini-displayport with the Dell U3415W. Sound works fine, Bluetooth Keyboard and Trackpad also work flawlessly.
Any guidance with some or all of these items would be greatly appreciated!
I read the following
NUC NUC5i5RYH HDMI Sleep Issue
But my NUC i5 either doesn't wake up from a sleep (S4/S5 disabled in BIOS) or the screen is just blank/black and I cannot see it.
I just installed the 4331 driver.
Can someone confirm which version fixes the above.
I am ordering a new NUC, I5, 6th gen and question is, can I load windows 10 operating system using a portable CD drive connected via USB port?
Thank you
Emory
Hi, I have the model 5i7RYH for one year ago, I want to know how is the correct way to dissassembly all parts to clean them. I'm living near to a cement factory and there are a lot of dusty, so I need to clean my NUC. Some instructions to make it?
Thanks
hi i can't access bios by pressing f2, i have opened it up and moved the yellow jumper to the other 2 pins but still it boots straight to windows without displaying bios
the only thing i haven't done is connect it to a computer monitor via the hdmi ... all my monitors are vga or dvi ... will it not access bios on a TV connection??
thanks

I have just bought a NUC6i5SYK
First thing I tried was to install both my 1x 8Gb 2400Mhz Kingston HyperX ram and my OCZ Agility 120Gb SSD.
When doing this, nothing happens. No BIOS, no flashing LED's, no Windows.
I have tried removing both the SSD & the RAM, but here there's no change, still no BIOS, and the NUC doesn't complain with noises (Yes, I have tried with headphones plugged into the minijack) or anything else to indicate that something is wrong.
I have tried downloading this BIOS: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25550/BIOS-Update-SYSKLi35-86A-
And then follow this guide: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/boards-and-kits/000005532.html to upgrade the BIOS.
As I couldn't see anything on the screen, and no LED's were flashing, I just let it be for 15 minutes, then powered the unit off, put the jumper in place, and bootet up the device. This didn't do anything either.
I don't know what to try next. Does anyone have an idea?
Hey,
I'm using NUC5i7RYH in a vehicle, its power supply is wired into the ignition. The question is can i configure the NUC5i7RYH to turn on automatically (without actually pressing the power button) when i start the vehicle?
Thanx
My NUC5i3RYH running Windows 7, will not start with a USB drive attached; what should I do? I have tried a WD Passport 1TB, a Samsung 4TB, and a Samsung 5TB, directly connected and through a hub.
My NUC can connect fine on the 2.4 GHz band, but is unable to see my (or any other) 5GHz network. I have several other clients connected to it, so I know the network is working normally.
I am using Windows 10 pro 64 bit, and the latest wifi driver currently found in the NUC support site. Using instead the (newer) driver found by the Intel Driver Update utility makes no difference.
Any suggestions?
My core i5 skylake nuc's fan is constantly running at ~3000 rpm even when I am not using the PC causing a constant noise. It is getting annoying. In BIOS, the CPU fan is set at "balanced". Should I change that to "quiet" or something else? Any help is appreciated.

I want to run dual monitors in extend mode
The mini display isn't working...I'm using a Insignia™ - 6' DisplayPort-to-HDMI Cable - Black | Insignia...there doesn't seem to be a feed to the monitor and goes into sleep after boot Dell 24 Widescreen Monitor with Built-In Speakers – S2415H | Dell. must be failing handshake because of the initial signal sent at boot and then displays the sleep message...could the cable be incompatible?
HDMI works fine.
I have the intel diver update utility downloaded
My drivers are up-to-date...well most of them...these show up each time I check...others that were successfully completed disappeared... So I'm guessing that the installs have failed on the following:
-Realtek ALC Audio Driver for intel 6.0.1.7673 ...but seems to work...idk?
-Chipset Device Software 10.1.1.9
-Serial IO host controller 30.63.1519.07
-NFC 7.7.6.0
-Graphics intel HD Driver for Windows 15.40.14.4352...even tried downloading to the C:Drive...with no luck...the HD Graphics Control Panel says 20.19.15.4352
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks in advance
Hi, I have a NUC6i5SYH that since mid Jan. and it have worked fine so far. But since two days ago I get WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR evry time I start and the NUC shuts down. This is repeated over and over again.
I have tested the DDR4 and HDD through an UBUNTU 15 USB-stick. No errors detected. I also tried to install UBUNTU with poor result. What is wrong?
My BIOS is version 0028.
