May pick up another board after the holidays. Probably go to that store also :D I'm in Lake In The Hills here.Quote:

Verify with CPU-Z, mine is an A2 yours hopefully is an A3

cant just yet. dont have all the parts yet. this is my first build :D
Tried to use another dimm ? are you sure all the required cables are hooked up ? unplug everything also PSU, even the CPU... verify if it doesn't have any bend pins in the socket area... then rebuild everyhting outside of the case with another dimm (try different ram slots too)Quote:

What's the trick to flashing an older BIOS? It keeps sayying my current BIOS is newer and won't flash the older.

I suppose you are trying to flash via windows then ? I would only recommend to use EZ flash via the bios... till now no negative experiences at all.
With windows update some dead boards due to corrupt bios
I always flash with No OC at all and one dimm ( so bios default settings loaded and just altered Dimm voltage to correct value ) I put the new bios on an USB stick and press Delete on the reboot, via EZ flash I had no issues to downgrade...
I was using the latest afudos with no luck. I even tried ez-flash 2 in BIOS and same results.

The problem was the boards response to some D9 GMH. I tried 4 sticks of Ballistix memory individually in every slot, no POST from any combination. I then used one stick of my friends name brand DDR2 and the board posted just fine. I just use 4 gigs of powerchips.Quote:

Ive been running Q9450 @ 3,2Ghz for 4 months with '1003' BIOS for Asus P5Q-E without any issues with the following settings:
CPU Ratio: Auto
FSB Strap: 333
FSB Freq: 400
PCIE Freq: 100
DRAM Freq: DDR2-801
CPU Voltage: 1.2
CPU GTL voltage: 0.630
CPU GTL voltage: 0.670
CPU PLL Voltage: 1.52
FSB Termination Voltage: 1.12
DRAM Voltage: 1.8
NB Voltage: 1.12
Everything else on Auto.
Today i had some 'crash' which made it impossible to boot, totally unrelated to my OC though. Had to reset BIOS to fix it.
Anyway, since it resulted in default Bios settings I thought I might as well update my bios from 1003 to 1406 at the same time.
The issue is, Im nowhere near stable OC with same settings again. Im not even passing the Windows loading Screen. I tried to up the voltages a bit on vcore, NB, PLL, but still crashing during windows load.
I got in with FSB at 366 (havent tested for stability since I just got in), but thats quite a difference compared to pre-update.
Can an updated BIOS really make that much of a difference? Any advice on which setting might be the culprit? Or if I should just downgrade to an old version.
Edit: Managed to get into Windows with FSB at 380. Prime survived for less than 1 min... feels like something is really :banana::banana::banana::banana:ed up :(
Sorry for doubleposting, but after reading more of the thread, regarding Q9450 and P5Q I thought it might be relevant.
After not being able to OC much at all (if at all, didnt try lower than 380 FSB, which crashed instantly) with 1406, I downgraded to 0803.
Now it seems to run perfectly fine with my old OC (400FSB).
Ive used 1003 until now though, which afaik did have CME, so I dont know if it is in any way related, but something was really bad for me in 1406 at least.
lol! I'm in Huntley, IL. here! Heh Reed Rd. / Route 47 :cool:Quote:

anyone here using 2x2gb muskin xp2 pc2 8500 for the mobo?
Yeh, me. 996599 model to be exact. Running at 1066MHz, 5-5-5-15 timings, 2.04V and 1406 BIOSQuote:

lmk how it runs. i plan on ordering my memory this upcoming week
Same issue here. I can not downgrade from latest bios! :down:Quote:

1) power off (pull the power cord)
2) remove the 2 bios (plz keep an eye on how to place them) chips : the pc boots from the right hand one so 1611 pull that one first and put aside
3) put the one on the left on the right hand side
4) Boot Pc and enter Bios
a) either you can continue to use this chip and flash it with eg 1406 or
b) you can open EZ flash to HOTFLASH the 1611 chip (that used to be on the right hand side) continue to step 5
5) no fear while the pc is running (in EZ flash tool) : pull gently the bios chip and replace it with the 1611 chip version
6) continue to flash 1406 or bios of preference
7) 1611 is reflashed with bios of preference
I just did this as the Asusupdate tool gave me some warning of it not being the correct eeprom and the above method worked fab ( I got one 0803 and one 1406 now )
Just make sure when pulling the bios chips that you don't use too much force as the pins bend easily (luckily they don't break rapidly)

guys i need ur help getting this rig to run at 3.6 stable, as u know ive RMAd the faulty dominator set and im waiting for the new ones, in the meantime ive reseated the mobo and the vendetta 2 with some silver grease and lowered temps a bit

ok that setup booted into windows at 1.16875 vcore, it wasnt very stable though, bumped vcore to 1.17500 and managed to get small fft prime stable for 5-10 mins before computer restarted on its own, bumped vcore to 1.18125 and again it restarted this time after some 15-20 mins prime, now im almost sure it wasnt the cpus fault it was restarting so i bumped vcore back to 1.17500 and raised nb to 1.3 and prime crashes now but theres no system restart so i must be on the right track, real temp is reporting warmest core at 61 degrees so thats sweet, what do i do to make it stable?

core temp is reading VID 1.2375v and im running 1611 bios, does the cpus vid suck for a C1 revision? how much more nb voltage headroom do i still have at this clock ?
In my opinion VID cant suck, it is what it is. But your temps are pretty high for just that voltage!Quote:
