OMG, I tried reverting from bios v 2206 to an 1506 using 2 different afudos versions (the one posted by lwarywild, and the one from the asus website) and each one gives me an error: BIOS does not support AFU
WTF?!?
I'm beginning to get frustrated here :mad: , has anyone experienced something like this?
UPDATE: Tried downloading the AFUDOS v4.xx utility from ami.com same problem
Try using ASUSUpdate and set the options to 'allow downgrading bios'.
I have not had problems flashing BIOS with this utility.
Thanks for the advice,Quote:

I aslo tried the awdflash utility which states to support the winbond chip used in my mobo, bud with no success, as it keeps telling me the: bios is not award bios, even when I use the "don't check for compatibility" flag :shrug:
It seems the Hothardware got a Yorkfield running on a P5W64WS which is also a 975 board, so there might be hope for the p5w dh as well :-)

Ok everyone, I've been getting lockups lately and so far my best guess is that it's because of my bios version. I'm using 2403.
I bought 2x2gb sticks of ddr2-1000 from g.skill and the system didnt read all of it. I was ignorant and thought it was a bios issue so I flashed from 1901 to 2403. I could never get the sticks stable to I put my old 2gb in and I'm sending the 4gb back.
Prior to flashing to 2403, my system would run orthos stable for over 12 hours and now, orthos shuts the computer down after about an hour. This morning I woke up, turned my monitors on, opened up team speak, connected, started to broadcast to my friends, and the system froze. It's frozen a few times now.
I also recently purchased an 8800GT, which might be a cause, but I dont see how since it passes visual stress tests for over 12 hours.
Is 2403 unstable at all? Is 2004 ok for EVERYONE? I just built a system for my little brother using the same motherboard, but his still has the 1901 bios chip in it. Would it be ok to put my 2403 into his system when his is not overclocked at all?
im running bios 2403 no problems make sure you have your ram timing right and the volts

Well if you're running ok, perhaps its an 8800gt issue. I bought a preoverclocked card (its all newegg had available at the time) and now I'm thinking its freezing the system. But again, the video card passes the video stress tests.Quote:

Does anyone have a JPG that shows where to measure the Vcore on this board?
Hi guys,
Does this board support four gig of RAM? I have four gigs installed but the bios only reports 3200 upon boot.
If I go into the bios, it lists this.
Total: 4096
Appropriated 896
Available: 3200
Am I pretty much hosed is there some way to unleash the rest of the RAM?
Thanks in advance.
If you have a 32-bit OS installed it will report only 3 gigs of ram. That doesnt mean you cant use all 4 gigs, it means you can only use 3 gigs per aplication.
To "unleash" the rest of the ram you need to install a 64-bit OS.
EDIT: If you are already using a 64-bit os, then enable the memory remap function in the bios.
It doesn't. It means that Windows will allow 2 full GB to the application, which is impossible (of course) with only 2GB RAM installed. With 4 GB, XP 32-bit will see and use 3.2 GB, no more.Quote:

EDIT: here's another link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555223Quote:
Windows and the applications that run on it have bumped their heads on the address space limits of 32-bit processors. The Windows kernel is constrained by default to 2GB, or half the total 32-bit virtual address space, with the other half reserved for use by the process whose thread is currently running on the CPU. Inside its half, the kernel has to map itself, device drivers, the file system cache, kernel stacks, per-session code data structures, and both non-paged (locked-in physical memory) and paged buffers allocated by device drivers.
Well thanks for clearifying. I was told its 3 gig per app but it seems i need to slap the one who told me that. :P
did you clean the old video driver before you installed the new card?Quote:

Steps:
1) BIO > JumperFree Configuration > AI Overclocking > [Manual]
2) BIO > Advanced > Chipset > Memory Remap Feature > [Enabled]
Has anyone used this board with E6750? This board won't overclock well past 3.2ghz with any voltage. In addition, to get it to 3.2ghz stable I needed 1.425vcore.
It is technically.. but Windows is an app itself ;)Quote:

Not big difference wit 2 or 4 sticks.Quote:

Hello fellowmodders.
Yesterday my voltmodded P5W died.
When I took a close look at the board I saw the volt. regulator at dimm 3 was burnt.
Also the Cap. near de vdroop mod did not seem well.
The red arrows in the pic point out the 2 components.
Can any of you guru's tell me what replacement components I can put there?
