Hi JCris3,

Thank you for posting in the Intel® communities.

According to the SSU report, the system is in Legacy mode. This may be the reason why you cannot set up the module. The Intel® Optane™ Memory is compatible only with UEFI mode, so you would have to set the system to UEFI mode and not Legacy mode.

Please follow this guide from ASUS* to configure the BIOS correctly: http://dlcdnmkt.asus.com/microsite/Optane-Memory-SOP.pdf

You have to make sure as well that your drives are using GPT partition style and that you have at least 5MB of unallocated space at the end of your primary drive, just as in the picture below:

Once you have done this configuration, please try again and let me know if you are still getting the same message.

If you have any doubt with any part of the configuration, feel free to ask. I'll do my best to help you.

Have a nice day.
