it passed 10 hours and 8 minutes before one of the cores crapped out:ROTF:
I'm calling it stable:D
Gonna check out the USB3 P45 mobo "for real" (maybe) this weekend, with qcore action, etc.
Meanwhile, I'm familiarizing myself with F2d bios.. and here's a question -> "Is it supposed to be legacy-incomplete?" :down:
Where's L1/L2 disable? Where's Gate A20? Where's ZIP100? LS120?
Is it possible that this mobo, while supporting LPT/COM, does not support the full legacy-Award-suite in BIOS? (?!?!?) I hope this stuff is hidden in there, somewhere...
Some (ancient) software/hardware could use such options, Gigabyte.
IMHO, the past should be fully respected on mobos with LPT/COM action as selling points.

for those who want to help me and help others running the EP45 USB3P i made a thread here to ask GIGABYTE a new beta bios

thanks all mates :up:

Well, if you flash to my special super bios you will be forced to upgrade to x58. The chances of your board surviving the flash are slim to none. End result....you will have a faster rig.
Ill make a deal with you, you get an X58 board and Ill give you a chip for it.
Yes!!! Whatever it takes to get you to upgrade my friend.
i got some spare x58 boards andressergio:D
i got some spare ram too:D
p45 sucks:rofl:
Sergio, you were meant to be on i7!!!!
I cant give you this chip, but I am serious about a 920, I have 2 and dont need them both. You tell me when you order a board and Ill bubble wrap the chip and send it out.
guys where's the tRC that CPUZ shows ? there's a specific value to each speed and radaja just told me that could be the reason and he maybe true...but i cant find it on bios :shrug:
maybe your p45 dont have it.i know my ST needed tRC set manually or it would set 20 or 21 instead of the SPD of 37

Hello everybody,
I just installed a used GA-EP45-UD3P with Bios F10 and having a problem with a long beep at intitial powerup. I press the power button on my compuer and as soon as it gets to the part where the monitor gets a signal I hear a long 3 second beep and then the system goes into loading bios and then straight to XP and everything is fine. I encoded four movies last night and everything went fine plus I get no BSOD's while I'm using the computer. The computer runs really good while it's on.
I checked all connections and a voltages are all fine.
I'm using a E7500 CPU with Kingston DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) value ram.
In Bios everything is in Optimized State.
Performance Enchance --Standard
mCH frequency Latch --Auto
System Memory Muli --Auto
Mem Freq 800
Cas Latency Time --6
tRCD --6
tRP --6
tras --18
Load Line Calib -Disabled
All Volts are set to --Normal
No-Execute Memory -Enabled
CPU-Z reads:
Dram Freq 400.MHz
FSB 2:3
6 6 6 18 tRFC-52
Command Rate 2T
1.8V
I'm wondering if the board just doesn't like the value ram but the system is running great with it except for that long beep at bootup.
Thanks
Can you get some better Ram? I bet that will fix it.
That's what I was thinking.
Is this ram good for the board

In two months I will be getting a Q9650 so I want ram that will work with this chip really good to.
My board is Revision 1.0, Are there any settings I can use to get rid of the long Beeeeeep? Maybe the board has configured the ram wrong.
