I was able to recover from the 99,7 bug on my TP67XE by flashing new BIOS, poping off the battery and clr CMOS for a few minutes.

Well thanks namegt for BIOS 126. I'm liking this board alot, simple yet powerful. :)
I'm sorry if we all kind of hi jack this thread but it's the only one going on about this board.

Thaks everyone else too. I am stuck without a 1155/1156 bracket for my TRUE till next week so all I have is the stock cooler for now. I got 4400mhz but can't play to much till I get my TRUE on there :)

I have one over here http://www.overclock.net/intel-mothe...-thread-w.html

This thread here is for the extreme guys and I think we should just let them have their fun here and us mere mortals can get some valuable nuggets of information here and there on this thread. I just try and stay out of their way. ;)

Thank you. Good information;)

To get BCLK un-stuck from 99.7 ?

Is it:

1. Flash new (which?) BIOS
2. Remove battery
3. Be happy

Is this method working 100% for people, or as suspected is there damage done to the eeprom?

Good mobo,but needs a bios as soon as possible.My issues:

Cannot run CAS6 stable
i get huge voltage spikes,like 0.1 from idle to load
Random shut downs,for example even at stock volts and frequency,randomly it shuts down for 2 second then comes up alive...

Sometimes forgets profiles and they are all erased and you need to save them again...

Otherwise good mobo,simple and efficient.

Oh and i forgot to say,that UEFI layout is awfull,there is a tiny space for selecting options and rest of the page is emty...

Also, ability to lower BCLK below 100, and lower CPU PLL lower than 1.700 would be wonderful. ;)

I have recovered twice. Flash 126 BIOS, pop off battery, set jumper to clr cmos and wait a few minutes. After that, bclock works again and I flash back to BIOS 118 because it runs tighter memory and I dont like the UEFI.

I agree, we need a BIOS capable of bclock lower than 100. Loadline also could use some tunning, we need something between enable and disable.

There are some things to be improved, but the board is a great clocker!

Thanks for the info on recovering BCLK.

Agreed on the LoadLine tuning. Here's what it says in the BIOS manual on the CD (ENUTP67XE.pdf) on page 27 it says this:

CPU VCore LoadLine
This item sets VCore LoadLine.
Options: Enabled (Default) / Disabled / 87.5% LoadLine / 75.0% LoadLine /
62.5% LoadLine / 50.0% LoadLine / 37.5% LoadLine / 25.0% LoadLine
/ 12.5% LoadLine

So it appears to me they have it planned, but not implemented yet.

Another BIOS bug I found tonight. Someone may have pointed this out already, if so please ignore.

BIOS 1/26, with DIMMs in slots 1 & 3 or 2 & 4, the Command Rate setting for memory is ignored and set to 1T. This issue does not exist in BIOS version 1/18.

Anyone seen any new BIOS later than 126 or 128 ? Did Biostar stop development during the recall ?

After having this board since Feb, the "B2" version and now the 3/8/11 bios, I love this board and want another one. I will buy the B3 version when it comes out. When is the B3 version going to be avaible?

IMO Intel has to do much more then just a new revision of chipset :down:

Nice and dirty server 2008 :D Am on xp now. 2 more cpu's coming in a few hours hopefully better than this one :shakes:

1.7v on the ram, more's not really helping, really having to slacken off on the trrd and tRas to get stable.

Can't get my hypers 32m stable on that divider to save my life so I'm eating my words Leeghoofd :rofl: for now.

This Board for $200 cheaper than a M4E can do 5.15GHz on Water. However, a M4E can do 5.30 GHz on water at the same volts.

Here are some results from my Biostar P67 Board that just arrived from Newegg.
