I got to many cpu's,2 months ago I got 2 8400's at compusa when they price them wrong at 139.99. I think I am going to put one on the x48t when I get it back and I was looking at a Intel x48 MB to put my x3360 in.
no wonder why COMPUSA is going out of business!
Yea, I think they fired everyone at comp because tiger direct called me to honor the deal.Quote:

funny thing, the board is only 3 days old, and was only turned on today for the 5 minutes it took to be updated (qflash)...
whos the bios maker ? award, phoenix or AMI ?
perhaps a recovery disk would work

what a huge :banana::banana::banana::banana:up, gigabyte.
oh me, oh my!
Somebody saw this?

Bottomline: DO NOT FLASH YOUR PRECIOUS WITH BIOS F5.
Here is a fixed F5 bios.
ALERT: for those who had a bad flash try the below...you might make it into the bios.
they bring up a good point, short out (Clear) CMOS while trying to start it to see if the 2nd bios tries to cut in...might work...even if you get into the bios, you can reflash with a previous bios.
mine is already boxed
someone care to try?
efficient!:D
what? the quick posting or the method ? :D
How could you do that, just start with a jumper on cmos and leave it on to see if the backup kicks in or what?Quote:

sooo, does it work or not?
Mail leaves in one hour. I still have time to pick her up, but not to mail her again if it fails...
edit: what does he means when he says the board keeps files on the HD? HD the harddrive?
I think I'll just send my in for repairs.

Oh, ok. I won't waste my time then. I'll let gigabyte sort it. I have another board to send anyway so I'll save on shipping.Quote:
