Modded ASUS P5Q/Pro/Deluxe/Premium BIOS

[Dee]

Hey Ket, do any of the P5Q-E BIOS "officially" support our CellShock PC2-8000? Not that I'm having any issues, it's running great. Just wondered.

[carepolice]

My five cents.......
Whit Intels 0803 i couldnt even look at memory tweaks/oc, But now whit your 1306 P5Q-E Mbios i can easily go nice mhz whit low volts (doh my a-datas are rated 1.8->1.9 )

I am pretty unhappy that you are goin to do better versions for only p5Qpro and dlx. But no chance to complain, after all i cant even belive that this all is only by one person cheers!

[Ket]

The Cellshocks arent in the QVL, but Micron D9 ICs are, so its the same thing really Oh and the new stuff I'm trying will be for other boards as well, its just the Pro and Dlx for now.

Ok, i have a P5Q-PRO so i'm on the list

No worries bro, I'm happy with 1306 for now anyways.

oh snap

I'll try to start work on the "uber" BIOS in the next few days, once I have something it will be posted. Naturally, with the BIOS that will be released proceed with EXTREME CAUTION! I do not know what may happen when ppl try it.

Thanks a lot for these Can't wait to flash my incoming P5Q Pro with them.

Easier way is to flash with afudos and extra switches

afuXXX /i<ROM filename> [/o<save ROM filename>] [/n] [/p[b][n][c]]

/n - don't check ROM ID
/pbnc -
b - Program Boot Block
n - Program NVRAM
c - Destroy System CMOS

Not sure about the system clock but all other settings are cleared with /pbnc ( or /pc ) and never needed to move jumper or remove battery after flash. Few times after too aggressive OC though

Have to check the clock thing next time when I flash. Never really paid attention to it so not sure. But never had posting issue with those extra switches so far

[Dee]

Seems unnecessarily complicated. Using EZ Flash tool built into the BIOS is easiest and safe.

[Ket]

People can argue all they want, after all the disecting of the P5Q series BIOS I'd hope I know the most effective way to clear its CMOS by now

Shouldn't that be...Xtreme Caution!?

[Vazovskiiii]

thank's ket you are the man
but plz don't forgot poore people wich have p5q non pro
can you arrange the more overclockin features in next p5q non pro bios like in p5q-e there is a lot of things for cpu overclocking
yes you are the really best asus need to get you on the job

so what you meen in uber bios what is it? i'm sure you'll do the best but what is it ? and will be it for p5q non pro?

thamk you

Is anyone experiencing issues with the P5Q Pro not POSTing when setting NB voltage to 1.7v+?

[xdan]

Yes, i've tryed once with a fan on Nb but it didn't post. And another issue
is that at 1.36 Nb i can raise the PLL voltage more than 1.6 because it didn't post either. May be i get a P5Q-PRO moore unstable at voltages
And the Nb is also unstable at hich than 1.42 V, it freeze after 5-10minutes,
even with a fan on heatsink.
As a fact after i get that the NB heatsink and heatipe are pretty hot i've put a small fan (froom Fx5500) on Nb.
A good question is this: Is the NB heatsink made from copper or from Al it seems to be to hot at not so high voltages ?

Hi, I have a P5Q Deluxe with a X6800 B2 Step. 6. My P5K-E runs at 500x7 with an e6750 24/7, but I am having trouble getting my P5Q posting at 500mhz. Can anyone post their settings for a stable 500mhz fsb?

Here are a couple of videos that show my issue that I have uploaded to Youtube so Asus can see the issue for them selves easily.

Video#1 = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27uHHbx1Jk0

Video#2 = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVDBZWfmz4o

Video#3 = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fR5HcbHZTY

Four will be up soon and it shows me going right back into Vista on the 0803.

Enjoy,

truehighroller: no idea about the cause of your problem, but since it's clearly specific to your hardware maybe booting vista in safe mode will help identify the problem, by either showing that safe mode works or hanging on a device driver. I also noticed you use grub. how does linux react to the various BIOS versions?

[Kain665]

This board fails so much... I have a hard time posting at 400mhz at any voltage. Im trading this to a friend for my good ol' P5K-E.

[waynetu]

it seems that the board has no good compatibility with 65nmcpu. but with e8200 or 8400, situ turns to be good and stable, as all you can see through this forum

[Mask]

can someone tell where P5Q vcore measure point?
