:(
yes my card is DOA..... all fan +hdd+++ starts but no picture..... tested with 3500eb and some Twin mos, 9800pro and x800pro, 2 x 3200+ Claw cpu but nothing happend... just black screen....
@H2OGun:
what the DRAM Drive Strenght does exactly?
and which options are available (grr...still waiting for my board.....i hope, it comes tomorrow....)
I got mine and in my version so far I have found the only BIOS problems to be is if I change any AGP settings int he BIOS it will not POST. Everything else is fine.
I havent had much time to even mess with the board yet...I have been able to get 2.35 so far but that is playing with it for about 10 minutes. Hope to get more.
small update:
mach 1 R507 // no mods
http://www.xs4all.nl/~famchow/A64_3400/DFI/3GHz.JPG
It seems this board is quite vurnable... want to know more about this.

While I get warm boot issues when switching settings, rarely (<1%) do I get really wierd stuff happening.
WRITE DOWN ALL YOU SETTING AS YOU CHANGE THEM!!!! :hehe:
I have had 2 occasions when the DFI UT screen suddenly comes back up after a setting and bios setting are now back to all defaults so if you DON'T write your settings down you may be :bananal:
i just got my 250GB in the mail today, will be settin it up this evening. i cant wait to test this thing out....
Yes....Quote:

I use a old 3200+ Claw and tryed Muskin level 2 BH5- Twinmos 3200 (samsung chip) and OCZ 3500 EB no boot.
I hawe ordred a 3700+ today and it wil be her on Friday... hope my DFI works then
Any other with this problem?
Man, the Orb seems to have a hard time reading this thing. I made a couple runs, first one's stock,(9x200) then @ 9x245. Especially check out my vid clocks, stock in both runs. :shrug: http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=3106945 then OCed http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=3107674 Obviously, the vid drivers aren't FM approved, but you'd think it could read the board's settings better. :lol:
Well its only PC2100 speed but check the timings ;)
heh, thats just sick.
Got my board running, so far its runnin great with my 2x512mb mushkin level 2 BH-5
my 3200+ C0 1mb and my 9800pro
THE POWER LED will be blinking between cpu is up/running and finished memory testing ...Quote:

At least that means the cpu core is running the bios code ...
put a pc speaker to see if their is a continuously beeping sound ...
If the anwser is yes , that's dram issue ...
Try to clear cmos and put dram in slot1 or slot2 or slot3 to see if the system can pass the memory testing sequence ...
im really liking this board. almost beating my watercooled 3200+/9800XT scores on air. and i still havent even done the performance aniso tweak or tightened my ram timings http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=8117896 :)
Nice, you're beating my X800 Pro in SOME tests. ;) :thumbsup: http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=8117930 I'm pretty happy, I broke 25k. :bounce: Hey bigtoe, did it actually boot with those timings? :slobber:Quote:

Shouldn't be a mem issue as Kakaroto is running the same RAM (HyperX 3200 BH-5 2x256) in the same board w/o issues.
My CPU worked well with this mem in my old mobo.
Any clues?
edit:To clear confusion, i'm talking the powerled of my case that's blinking, not the onboard DRAM powerled or standby powerled.
I know you mean powerled of case , if the onboard DRAM powerled or standby powerled is blinking , your chipset on the board is " burned out " ...Quote:

1 . Take off the board , remove any thing including retention kit come with the board
2 . Turn the board to back side and check carefully if there is anything short between all the DIMM/AGP slot pin ...
3 . Put only the MB on an safe platform , remove AC power cord first
4 . Plug the ATX 20 pin and ATX +12V 4 pin power connector
5 . Install the cpu , put the cpu heatsink on it carefully
6 . Install one DIMM in DIMM3
7 . Plug the spreaker or buzzer on the front panel connector
8 . Plug the AC power cord
9 . Boot up the mainboard to see if there is any beep sound
10 . No beep sound or continous long beep sound ? Return it to your reseller and ask for an exchange ASAP ...
11 . 3 short beep sound ? Turn off the power and install the video card , it should be able to boot with display card if there is 3 short beep sound without video card on the MB ...
OSKAR_WU:
This is Probly a Simple Question for you, But..
On the DFI, the Bios chip is 4mb? and the bios is 512k, So What happeneds with the extra 3.5mb?
Kinda curious, i mess with xbox bioses and such, so it came to mind.
Thanks for your time & GREAT work!
