help please...
Anyone have Crucial Ballistix DDR2-800 working on this board? And anyone with a HR-05 SLI hooked up to the southbridge?
Rename the .b06 to .binQuote:

if you look.... the last 2 numbers now are 00
before the flash with the original bios the last 2 numbers was 10...why??
and why if i open the flash utility now....read 10?? and not 00?

I finally got my QuadGT.. What a bunch of problems I have/had..
Am I the only one here, who can't get Vista installed properly on this mobo?
It doesn't go any further, at the last step.. Completing installation
It just sits there and doing nothing. I've waited for over an hour just to see if something should happen, but nothing happens.. it just sits there.. but not frozen.
I now have installed XP, and it works just fine!
Any1?
Vista would not install for me on my Quadcore. You would need a dualcore to run vista for now. Some other people have also claimed to install vista on 680i boards and a few others though. I tried with my dual core and it worked fine. I'm not the only one with this problem too.Quote:

Certainly hope the upcoming bios will fix it?!?
Vista installed just fine on p5B-d + C2Q
Is it just the install that's the problem? Would it be possible to install vista with a dual core, and then swap in a quad core after it's been installed?Quote:

damn the digital pwms get hot! Especially the middle ones. Got up to 100C. Has a hard time staying stable. Need to find some way to help cool down the components.
Interesting thought Damnnit, but I was thinking more on the lines of installing the os with a Dual Core 6600.Quote:

From what I gather and reading over at Anandtech though, the lastest bios b06 has resolved this issue. No?

tonite i'll be testing more...
@ 450x8 on my 6600...
my Spi_1m is @ 14.176s...
on my commando its 14.4++s...
a what speed is those temps? mines are 50 and below at 401x9Quote:

im going to add another fan just like the one i put on the NB to the PWM
Eva do you test Abit GT with Q6600, and is it beter of P5B DLX or commando, I think is this Mb can do beter FSB.Quote:

haven't tested Q6600 yet only started to really play with quadgt last night with E6600 first hehQuote:

Thanks I will wait test, and hope that 1066 strap is beter for Keintsfield CPU-FSB WALLQuote:

Vista ready? Quad CPU ready, Highly Overclockability, YEAH RIGHT!
I updated to Bios B06, and finally succesfully installed Vista.
Then I tried some OCing.
1. Set the FSB to 400 and 1:1 to on the mem ( DDR800), which my P5B did without any problems!
QaudGT reboots as soon as Vista start.
OK, then I set the FSB to 366, and set the mem to DDR¨1050 ( My mem can do 1150 on the P5B, but the QuadGT restarts. Then I put it back on to 1:1. Ok now Vista boots. I started som Orthos, and was getting excited! temps where good, stability perfect. BUT, then I fired up CPU-Z, and to my horrible surprise:
2. The multiplier is set to 6x no matter what setting I use in bios . Yes I disabled thermal Control and EIST, so the CPU is only running 2196Mhz. No wonder I had those great temps!
I was able to go as high as 450FSB with my P5B-D, but why change it to QuadGT, you might ask. Well, the P5B-D suffer from a tremdeous vdroop with a Quad cpu, and according to this thread, QuadGT has very stable vdroop. Thats why I decided for the QuadGT. The FSB performance should by no means be worse than P5B-D, with the C2 chip, right!?
thanks you are a gentlemanQuote:

I think most of us are still on XP and no real problems. RMA the board and see if the problem persists. I like the Abit a whole lot more than the Asus.Quote:

I'd like to install a HR-05 on my NB for better temperatures, but don't wanna loose my warranty on the board.
