oh btw. my temp sucks. am getting like 55C idle CPU at 350FSB and vcore of 1.4625. Is my board/ram screwed ??
What is safe voltage for North bridge? is 1.65 really safe and what temps...
how can monitor temps of NB?
Whats ur temp in Asus PC Probe 2 under MB?Quote:

so I finally got my replacement mobo, and after a couple of bumps (some beeps, etc) I finally got to load BIOS 614, and setup the RAID volume, etc....
I start the windows setup, press F6, and then load the ICH8R SATA RAID drivers (which loads up som ioStor.sys or something like that). I press continue, and after a couple of more loads of drivers from the windows Setup CD, I get the freaaggin windows blue screen of death!!! :confused:
I tried that several times, and even loaded the ICH8R ACHI drivers instead, and the same shizznik happens!!!:help: :soap:
what's the deal here??
I swear, I've never had this many problems setting up a PC...:(
Start looking up the rest of your hardware and trouble shoot.
-RAM
-PSU
-IRQ
-Cables
-Optical
-HDD
etc, et, etc, etc......
Hey guys i have tried almost everything all Bios's, Almost all configs in the voltage/fsb selection screen, almost all memory timings (including spd), ive tried clock gen up higher, and i have tried all multi's, and i cant get my 6700 step 5 over 3.8 stable! i have even replaced the NB cooler to see if that helped. I have seen some good results that people have with a 6700 on a p5b-d but i have also seen alot of people having good luck with the p5w-dh... I really want to get a good clock with the 10x multi so does anyone else have some insite into this? or should i give the p5w a shot?
I know this processor is atleast capable of 4ghz on water, it has been tested before!
i know its not my gskill Hz holding me back because i can memtest at 3.95 but not boot into windows, and i get no errors!
so i am not really sure what other steps to take to try and get this mobo to work for me.

WOOHOO, FINALLY XS IS UP!
ANYWAYS, I'm having a HUGE issue setting up the RAID on this board.
Specs:
CPU: Core 2 Duo E6600
MB: P5B Deluxe/WiFi-AP
VID: eVGA e-GeForce 7950GT KO 512MB
RAM: Kingston HyperX 2GB PC2-6400 Low Latency Dual Channel DDR2 Kit (2 x 1GB, NVIDIA SLI-Ready)
HD: 4x SATA Seagate 7200.10, 320GB
I've gotten the system setup, Windows installed on a single drive..
I have no issues getting the RAID working and creating the array, I nlite'd the ICH6R drivers at first and realized they were the wrong ones (read the 8 in the intel bios as a 6), replaced with the ICH8R drivers, reburned XP, bam, 1.2 TB disk discovered. My copy of XP is mostly unattended, it does the first reboot, comes up, installs drivers, components, asks for username / owner info / network info, does its shtuff, and on the 3rd XP reboot (where you should get the OOBE or Welcome for corp) it has a STOP (BSOD) error (that I cannot read due to the fact the system immediately reboots after).
I can not boot in to any safe mode, and the XP logo DOES come up and do half the boot - when going into safe mode, I see all the textmode drivers load just fine (right up to MUP.SYS I believe, it crashes after, but I also thought this was the last driver a fresh XP normally loads).
I tried installing on the RAID0 a couple of times before just doing the single drive, once I got the single drive installation running, I updated the BIOS realizing that the first ICH8R drivers I nlite'd were version 6.1 and before my BIOS update the drivers were 6.0.
Realizing this, I had a huge glimpse of hope: I had just updated the BIOS version to the same drivers I put on the CD. Re-install again on a RAID, wait, wait, smoke some ;), wait some more, and.. SAME PROBLEM.
I never tried ASUS's drivers, I went straight to intel, however, after I updated my BIOS I realized the only drivers I could find on the site were the 6.0 drivers.
I just turned it on to get the BIOS version, and some how it thinks my drives are configured to AHCI, that I have a USB Mass Storage Device, my LAN cable failed (this part is actually probably true, haha), and that my overclocking failed (I have not touched the OC settings yet at ALL!)
Odd, anyhow, BIOS ver is 0614.
This seems to kind of boil down to this though, it seems like everyone's getting their RAID to work using the F6 method not silpstreaming/nliting, as far as I know, it shouldn't matter, maybe I'm using the wrong drivers somehow? I swear the version/chipset does match.
Could someone send me the drivers they used to install their RAID with? I will try nliting them, and if I get the same issue again, I will dig up a floppy and try the F6 method, if that doesn't work, perhaps I should swap the board and try a new P5B-D/WIFIAP..?
thanks..!
Some more, less important question's while I'm at it:
Fan included for one of the chipsets, worth it? My Scythe Ninja is in the way sorta..
Is it worth it to AS5 all the sinks? on my vid too even?
werd
SLI - possible at even 2x8x? I thought I read something about it with some work but..
With my P5B dlx, if i set my FSB up to 400 i have around 7300 in memory bandwith with sandra. if i set to 401 and up to 410 for example, i have around 6800.....so puting FSB above 401 because under 400 is bad, for me it's not good. more than 450 is ok.
Has anyone still got a copy of bios 0507 ??
Please I lost it :(
Anyone heard something when 0709 will come out...
0706 is ok
Anything newer than 706 yet?
wouldn't the bios detect that? I mean, everything boots up fine, and the windows setup is still in progress when this happens (text mode). :confused:Quote:

Last thing: Dont know if the drivers are screwing it up, so I will download the new RAID drivers. Can I install windows normally, and THEN change the volume to RAID in windows? I recall something like that was possible :confused:
YES!...increase your ram voltage if you are overclocking...i normally set mine to at least 2.1v when doing a setup of windows even if i am not overclocking..
and you are right about the cpu, it will stop at the initial post screen if one pin is not making proper contact.
Peoples. Say me plz, which BIOS for P5B Deluxe better to use? 0614 or 0706.??
news keeps getting better and better for me........ :(............someone just shoot me already, I beg you! :explode2:
So I'm trying to put the brand new Saphire X1900XT card, and i just realize that my PSU doesn't have a PCIe 6 pin power connector!!!! So, now I gotta buy ANOTHER freaking component, a PSU!
looking at these guys.....which one is the best with the least amount of probability of giving me hell with this mob?:

others????
I've got a few issues, odd ones to
Processor E6400 @ 450*8
Bios Revision: latest (0614)
Memory: 2x1024 SuperTalent 800 (KNOWN to do 1000 @ 44410, 2.25V)
Configured Voltages: vCore, vFSB, vNB, etc. 1.65 Core, Default FSB, NB, Etc, except 2.3V mem)
Configured FSB: 450 (i have the blanking issues, more later)
Configured Ratio: 8
Configured Memory Timings: 4-4-4-10
Any other applicable configuration modifications: Fans over HOT spots.
Alright, first off i have the damn "ghost boot" (starts then shuts off, then starts again). Next, even at STOCK everything, Orthos still FAILS within 50 minutes. After that, i have the FSB hops - 300FSB is stable, 333FSB needs MAXed volts for all items, 334-399 is unbootable, 400 is perfectly stable, with all stock volts. I can't pass 450FSB.
With the OC in place, Orthos doesn't even last 10 seconds, BUT. Single stability tests will go for HOURS if designated to one core or another (single prime, single s-pi etc), but if a SECOND test is run on the other core, failure in seconds. The mobo IS inverted, but i have the squirrel cage on the PWM, and an 80mm over the NB. What in the hells is going on with this mobo? I mean, if it can work for a daily driver with NO data corruption etc, yet fail stability tests...
Edit: CPU is WC'ed with a Weapon 302, dual SD Aces feeding off that, a MCP600 pushing the H20, and an Apogee on the chip. About 55c full load
Why Wont Anyone Hook Me Up With Some Fn Drivers
Please!!
315X9
dram freq = auto
pci express freq = 97
pci clock = 33.33Mhz
Spread spectrum = Disabled
Memory voltage = auto
Vcore = 1.325
Fsb termination = auto
Nb vcore = auto
C1E Support = Disabled
All ram settings = auto
Above 315X 9 at the above settings, system will reboot itself INSIDE XP
Any hints to hit a higher FSB ?
i have 2 IDE plextor dvd-rw drives and i plan to run them off the sata ports via a converter
has anyone had any issues running optical drives off sata via a converter?
thanks
Seasonic S-12 600W here doing fine, probs only 60% used even at mad clocks.Quote:

After a few days of folding, 614 BIOS.
400x7 rock solid, can't wait for my Tuniq Tower to get here with my SATA DVD-RW, no ATA boot screen and 3.2 and possibly 3.6ghz!!!
Anyone actually managed to get decent readings from anything?
Everest shows the most out of speedfan etc:
Mobo: 27C, doesn't change much, any ideas where this point is?
CPU Core 1/Core 2: Both around 40-45C same as Coretemp.
GPU: 37
GPU Amb: 37
GPU VRM: 47
74Gb Rap: 21
CPU Fan = 2045, but no other fans are read, even tho there are 3 connected :S
CPU Core: 2.43V (Must be mem voltage - 2.35V in BIOS)
Aux???: 3.63V
+3.3V = 3.2V
+5V = 5.38 (5.05 on Multimeter)
+12 = 10.34 (12.02 on Multimeter)
-12 = -10.74
-5 = -4.02
Also AI Suite will not install, saying my BIOS needs to be updated. Well it is!!!!!!!!!!!! :mad:
