What FSB's are you guys running?
DOn't know about anything else, but the boot-up/start-up definately became faster with 0903 BIOS. Enough for me to actually notice it.
903 is great for me! With previous BIOSes my max OC of D930 was 4.1Ghz and now i can run benchmarks at 4.3Ghz ;)
Is this a beta BIOS or has Asus properly tested it? They are still showing 0801 as being the latest on their website.
The testing department is the consumer at ASUS :slapass:Quote:

Thats about the third time you've said that with the silly little smiley. I think we get it. As always this is beta so if you're not comfortable using something like this then don't use it ok?!Quote:

Noticed a faster boot here too. I will be able to give it a more meaningful review if I ever get my E67.
do you guys mean that it gets out of the monochrome screens faster, or that the windows blue line screen gets over with faster?
i dont restart much
when i do, im not looking
I meant it takes a few seconds less to get to the XP loading screen, that's all that has changed.
is this supposed to be the latest bios currently out for testing, and then the most stable atm?
I mean, if i would ask: "What's the newest, even beta, bios i can use for P5W DH Deluxe and Conroe E6600?" - would you answer with no doubt: "0903!" ?
Sorry but i have a little headache with all these bios release, i still dunno what release i have now, i think the 0701, i flashed my bios already 4 times since i bought the motherboard.
Now (today) i got my E6600, and i'm going to put it in my PC tomorrow morning, and exactly after installing it i want to flash P5W DH Bios with the latest, most stable, best one.
:D
why does all these bios release on the german site fisrt instead of the regular or all? gonna test it out i guess
Seems to be all about 'Who you know'Quote:

0903 : I noticed a definite change in boot up speed... both the black Asus post, getting to the XP Logon, and Post Logon to get to XP. Don't know why but things have been running smoother since 0903. I just built my rig so i've been doing a lot of setup & installation, with a lot of rebooting & settings. Probably that's why i'm noticing the difference.

Got my E6600 and put it on my P5W DH Deluxe, with Artic Freezer 7 pro + Artic Silver, got the other hardware still the same (2gb crucial ballistics ddr2-800 and gf7950gx2).
The bios is the 0701 (probably) and i have resetted it, so there are no previous settings i was using with the D805.
Now the pc boots up, i can see it running, fans etc, but i have nothing on my screen, i don't even have any error message and i don't hear any bip or sound from the mobo. I just don't see anything on the screen, and i don't even think it's running well since i don't even see the leds on the mouse and on the keyboard, that usually turn on after the start-up checks and stuff.
Any help please?
Your problem could be something entirely different, but i've experienced the exact same thing that you're stating, because of the way the motherboard was placed in my case, where it was touching the surface area of the case, thus shorting the board. It was an electrical issue.
Just like you said, the board would power up, fans rotating and everything, but it wouldn't boot up and you won't see anything on the screen.
I just had to adjust the way my motherboard was screwed in my case, specifically, made sure there was a padding rim covering the holes in the case so the motherboard wouldn't touch the case at all.
The fact that you mentioned there is no "beep" sound makes me think it is what i'm saying it is. You should definately hear a single beep if there is no electrical issue. BIOS and everything else comes into picture AFTER the first single beep.
But like i said, your issue could be completely different.
