Regarding the floppy drive, just go purchase a USB floppy drive.
Plug it in, rest it on the top of your case, and then when you are done unplug it and store it away until the next time you need it :)
Ive LOVED the fact that I have a USB floppy drive at my disposal whenever I need it for BIOS flashes/etc......
Is it 100% necessary? No....but it sure does make life easier sometimes :)
The days of the floppy are over :) Im glad they are....such a pita, im glad we can flash from USB flash drives now
Ok guys, I think I have my overclock set stable and at the speed I want.
I am currently at 378x9 = 3.4ghz.
I have core voltage at 1.3175. Lowering the voltage 1 notch will result in significant errors in Wprime and Prime
I have run prime95 for over 4 hours on this O/C with no errors. Wprime will do the little test in 12 sec and the longer one in 400. My temps are in the high 30s at idle running up to high 50s under full load.
anyways, my question is regarding my ram. I currently have my timings set at 5-5-5-15 running in 1:1 mode with 2.1 Vdimm. I cannot raise my ram multiplier at all or the computer will display POST error code C1. If I set the timings to auto I can run up to ddr 968. I believe my benching scores were a few seconds faster with timings set to auto and using a higher multiplier. My Gskill ram is supposed to me pretty good, any ideas????
one other thing. I have a WD 500 gig that is hooked up via SATA and I am running Windows XP. I believe I had to set the drive up in a certain way that it is slowing it down. I cant really explain this any further because I really dont understand it. Something to do with XP and Sata drivers...
Yep...not only did I get my OS (and new build) up and running without one...now I have an ISO bootable WinXP SP2 CD with the drivers built in in case I ever need to reinstall.Quote:

Hello...
I have one question
In next day i will buy scythe infinity, and I don't now if have problems to install that cooler?
Hi
I have the Scythe Infinity. There are no space problems. You can install the cooler either way. (blowout top or back). Keeps my E6300@3.28Ghz quite cool (coretemp 45C, ambient 18C).

Just do it out of the case. You have much clearer picture there.
Be careful with the capacitors (like in any other mobo)!
anybody know which version of the thermalright mosfet cooler fits on this mobo? http://www.petrastechshop.com/rahesp.html
err i need help guys
i was trying to flash my bios, and everything went fine until this screen came up and asking me to input file name? On top theres a box that already has the file name m629b)14.bin...
on the bottom the sentence "please input file name" just keeps flashing, and the computer seems to be on halt... what do i do? help plz!...
Hm....It should say M629B_14.bin. The ")" might be the problem. :)Quote:

i had that same problem....i just had to manually set the voltage to 2.1 in bios and then when i restarted the alarm was set to 2.55 lol? makes no sense to me....so im assuming its a known problem
Thanks for the tip. I'll try it.
edit: Just tried it. No go. I ever cleared cmos again, load defaults but all i did is mess it up more. Now temp alarms have gone to 255'C... :p
Going back to 14 bios for now...
i ignored the beep and it went away...smile...don't know how but it did go away!...maybe it was the voltage adjustment...who knows...grinQuote:

How did you get your BIOS to flash from a USB flash drive? I tried, and can't.Quote:

Follow the directions in Ace's sig labeled "ABIT IP35 PRO BIOS FLASHING PROCEDURE"; he has the steps spelled out there.Quote:

Sure would be nice if Windows could do that with its own native utilities.
Or if the Abit board just SAW a USB drive attached to it like an Asus board does.
