I'll do my 3.4Ghz Q6600 when i get a chance, although since ASUS won't do anything about it is there a point??

The point is that if they won't do anything about it they're going to shoot themselves in the foot. We're not talking about adding new settings we're talking about wrong or outdated code in the BIOS that should be fixed. ;)Quote:

its-332 released with these changes:
*
Update MSR Consistency tests to exclude additional MSRs which may be inconsistent but do not indicate issues with BIOS initialization.
*
Updated the test_options function to include definitions for verbose levels and corrected the default value.
It requires a spare USB Key (flash drive/penstick) to boot with.

Never mind, last night i was sleepy :shakes: Shame on me. :ROTF::rofl:Quote:

Risk of OS timeouts exists with this observed latency (ideal is < 150us)
Very strange result with this new version. MSR 0x0 and 0x39 don't fail anymore but now 0x40 fails. :confused:
The SMI Frequency and latency is exactly the same.
I'm not sure i can be any immediate help with the bios code, however i have a maximus formula(x38) running modded rampage formula bios 1002 and would be willing to try some stuff.
I would be willing to help with oc testing and adding that info to a general pull of data as i would love to be able to boot into windows with my chip at or above 4GHz .
cheers A Grey
testing shall begin
I have not heard from ASUS support for more than a week :(
Has anyone else heard from them?
John
Same here.Quote:

ASUS sent me an email in regards to the Intel Bios Test errors and it looks like they're interested in testing that and possibly fixing those errors. They are not interested in the ODT timings though.
At least it is a good start though. They have not commented on whether they will fix those errors on the Rampage Extreme :(Quote:

Who cares about their future boards? :shrug:Quote:

The fact is that they don't want to do anything about the BIOS and still expect from us to buy their new boards. :rolleyes:
Well, i sell my Maximus Formula 75€ :rofl:
PROBLEM SOLVED !
THANKS ASS US !!
What Board should i pick now ?:shrug:
DFI OR GIGABYTE ?
Just get a Gigabyte socket 1366 and you will be happy:D
Or wait a bit longer for SKT2011
Anyway a new version of BITS has been released today.
Alien? have you managed to run this on your RF?
I am at work now so sadly cannot run it, but I am curious to see what results you guys get.
John
I think that Gigabyte is the better choice. DFI Lanparty doesn't exist anymore so the support is going to be bad.Quote:

Thanks Alien
I have reported these issues to ASUS on a Feedback form for the Rampage Extreme, I also mentioned that Rampage Forumla users were having very similar issues too.
John
It looks like ASUS are keen to fix the BITS issues as i've had constant contact with ASUS support over the issue and have given them all the results on this forum.
How can i help? I have a x38 converted, but use the 1002b bios.
