Hi ByteSlinger. :welcome:
There is indeed a newer BIOS: 3003 2015/11/23
Now you've got 1104, 16/07/2014.
What can you try before updating bios (that could be risky) and drivers?
1) Load optimized defaults (in your bios) and check if the problem reappears.
2) Try to switch the RAM sticks to the black slots (although the red slots are recommended) and check if the problem reappears.
I can't check the other drivers, see:
MAXIMUS VII RANGER | Motherboards | ASUS Global
You have got a bios usb flashback port: check carefully your manual before updating the BIOS.
There are also other methods (chapter 2.2 and 3.11).
