Thanks :hehe:
Posting from work.
When I get home will flash to this bios.
make sure you got backup bios before you do it :)
just for pre-caution ;)
Nice, might just buy one.
Tictac --> Check your PM/Accept me on MSN please.
I wouldnt do it. I heard from the Intel Fatalitys that the special bios is registered to the serial number to your motherboard. So basically you are flashing someone elses special fatality bios on your AN8. This might cause it to stop working.Quote:

Um this is just a regular bios bud not the "SSB" as some of us call it the super secret bios or stupidly secret bios which is a rumor and apparently doesnt exist. Its rumored that you can't copy the SSB to disk so if you can't then how am i uploading a 512kb bin file to an ftp for people to dl. And I've compared the boards to each other they are 100% identical from pics shown. The only diff is the nforce 4 chip versus nforce 4 ultra and the few extras u get from it etc sata 300. It even uses the same damn sound card.Quote:

And I'm sure that if it does use a serial # either I or tic tac or another of the bios modders out there can crack it :)
Just an example k8ns ultra 939 versus k8nsxp 939. I have the k8ns ultra 939. I'm using f8 bios from the k8nsxp 939.
2.8v max doesn't suck?Quote:

2.5-2.8 vdimm however your forgetting ddr/ref volts setting which is adjustable from +10 to +60. and also the same for vcore.Quote:

I cant wait to see what happens to this guys board :) BUD
well ya :banana::banana::banana::banana: can go wrong but if he has a backup chip with the bios on it he should be all set.
LOL ok cool .
Tictac if you want a copy of the AV8 BIOS lemme know either here on OCforums. Ill host em as wellQuote:

i havent check it yet...
will check it later next week... when i'm back at home ;)
No luck using winflash an8 bios is 512kb fatality is 513kb.
Wondering i fI should try force flash in dos.
If the file size didnt match your bios... it wont let you flash it :-/
and 513KB sound wrong for a bios file... now this make me wonder....
sound like ABIt adding extra security to prevent plain AN8 flashing Fatal1ty bios on their board :hehe:
If that is it really sux.
About to test the booster see if it works.
ok let us know if it work ;)
Just to add up something... the bios that chew* link to us is taken from AN8 Fatal1ty ROM...
not the plain flashable bios from Abit ... :(
Booster doesnt work.
Everytime I try it it gives the code 83.
This board needs a bios update badly.
Hopefully something can come of the board.
At stock its a great board.
They have to fix the multipplier issue.
Hopefully vdimm can be increased, by bios but i doubt it.
Vcore seems to be rock steady at max 1.75, vtt tracks very well.
the ddr/cpu ref does nothing at this time.
A new bios better increase the options or its modding time.
yah gitzum copied the bios file from his existing bios basically like backing up a bios to floppy from dos. Although i just tried flashing my K8ns ultra to a k8nsxp from dos other day and it wouldnt work. I had to force flash with the windows flash utility to do it.(I hate windows based flashing).Quote:

maybe you can do the same with your bios and upload it to me maybe me or tictac can figure out what they did.
you should back the bios up to floppy anyway and see what it names it. Maybe if you rename the file it will work. I find it odd it says its a 513kb file.
In fact im gonna see if i can force flash that bios onto a chip right now with my nf7-s. I got spare chips for that board anyway.
I renamed the file and it still says 513kb
