hey peeps
i got a few bios updates for UD4/5/7 which should sort this S3 multiplier dropping to 35x after exiting sleep mode
give it a crack
I tested UD7, it works, just enable S3 in bios

my bclock also went to 107mhz from 104 with new bios
what does pll override do? I have it disabled, why should I enable it? Thx!
yup....:shrug:Quote:

time will tell
With AHCI enabled I freeze during the reboot process at "detecting IDE drives" on both F6 and F7B?
(I've already set start in msahci to 0 with regedit)
Didn't come across this with F3, annoying :(
Try F7f.Quote:

Yeah,but after F7.Quote:

Guys,
I'm having serious problems with this board and I need some help.
I bought the board last week, along with a 2600k.
Since I installed it on wednesday, my board is acting weird (it's the least I can say).
The major problem is that it won't hold the VCore.
The board came with bios F3. After installing everything normally, I checked voltages in both bios and windows (using HWINFO, CPU-Z and ET6).
My cpu has these VID's at specific speeds :
3400Mhz : 1.225V
3500Mhz : 1.245V
3600Mhz : 1.275V
3700Mhz : 1.300V
3800Mhz : 1.325V
3900Mhz : 1.335V
4000Mhz : 1.340V
4100Mhz : 1.340V
4200Mhz : 1.340V
4300Mhz : 1.345V
4400Mhz : 1.355V
4500Mhz : 1.360V
4600Mhz : 1.360V
Now here's the problem.
After the first start, the bios reads the default VCore at 1.212V, which seems normal.
After booting into windows, VCore drops at various voltages, I've had 0.972V or 1.140V etc.... (this is to make a long story short).
Now, after a restart, the bios reads the same VCore as in windows, which seems kinda weird to me.
So, after, f.e., ET6 or CPU-Z read 0.972V, the bios, after a reboot, would give the same readings.
I went from bios F3 to F6, then F7b, F7f, then back to F3, now on F2, but the problem won't go away.
Here's an example with pics and screenshots (taken yesterday):
After reboot, VCore in bios reads correctly 1.224V :

Other settings in bios :

Then I booted into windows, and VCore drops to 0.972V (idle and load)
http://www.abload.de/thumb/3400_autovcore_loaddm1b.jpg http://www.abload.de/thumb/3400_autovcore_idlehmvg.jpg
As you can see, VCore doesn't change at all and stays at 0.972V.
After a reboot, you can see that the bios reads the same voltage as in Windows, 0.972V
http://www.abload.de/thumb/f2bios-39412m8l.jpg
Then, I set Vcore manually at 1.320V :

But as you can on the pic below, Vcore still stayed at 0.972V :

I'm getting very frustrated with this board and I'm wondering what's causing this problem.
I reinstalled the CPU this afternoon, cleared CMOS and others, but the problem won't go away.
I'm considering returning the board and have it checked, unless the problem might be resolved very soon.
My first board upgrade in 2 years (coming from S775) and now this crap happens to me.
Anybody out here who might help me out?
well, must bad board i quessQuote:

I'm having a similar issue I think... My UD4 will not accept any change to vcore. I have come to the conclusion it's a bad board. so it's going back.
Hey big brother! You need to disable the last 5 settings on this bios screen. You have c1e & eist enabled. :up:Quote:

The board simply hasn't worked correctly since day 1.
Already called the store and informed them about the problem.
They'll have it checked and I'll probably get a new one (as this is only a couple of days old).
Well that sux balls! When you get a new one, let me know if you need any help. I got this board down pat now. She is screaming along @ 47 x 100 with 1.4v in bios, running WCG @ 1.392v. Temps are topping out @ 55c on my h2o system.Quote:

I noticed something weird earlier.
As I said before, the bios or windows wouldn't hold the VCore and after a reboot, the bios would report the same Vcore voltage as in windows.
Now, after I changed a setting and saved the settings, the system would sometimes shut down and reboot after a couple of seconds (mostly when changing C1E/EIST settings, or Isochronous "whateveritscalled")
After the reboot, the bios would give me the correct voltage (vcore set at Normal, DVID at AUTO or Normal).
Unfortunately, windows wouldn't and still report wrong voltages.
I had to repeat this, so the bios would read the correct voltage after another reboot.
Weird, but nothing I'm gonna worry much longer anymore.
The board is going back on wednesday.
If they give me a new board, I'm not sure if I would take another UD4. or try something else.
We'll see.
uninstall ET6 in windows and clear cmos and follow these steps and see if it still does it please

Thanks for this post dinos22.... I have had a go with your settings and my own issue remains.
I think my issue is different to others and I'm certain it must be a hardware fault. I have ordered another board which will be here tomorrow.
My issue is that any alteration to vcore will cause a bizarre result....
This is what I do, although I have tried many variations / bioses etc.
Clear CMOS for a nice fresh setup
Boot to Bios
Check settings (turbo and vcore) these show 1.188v vcore or 1.220 in the advanced voltage page (AUTO). Board reports Boot at 34 and Turbo at 35 - All as it should be.
Alter vcore (Tried all sorts but say 1.35v).
F10 and save - then re-boot
Comes back fine, but Vcore now reports as 0.98v and Board reports Boot at 34 and Turbo at 16???? WTF
If I then do F10 and save again... board will go into a power on and off cycle with no beeps or VGA
Just to add that if i leave Vcore on Auto and LLC to Enabled it works ok I can set turbo at 50 and boot into windows where vcore is reported as 1.38v
The chip will do 5.3+ on an asus P8P67 but needs 1.45 - 1.5v hence why i want to set the vcore manually.
if your chip able to hit 5.3ghz at 1.5v thats great. i can suggest some settings.Quote:

keep ram 1333mhz and standard performance
set multipler 50x for now.
enable llc for now.
all voltages auto except vcore and dvid.
set vcore normal (not auto)
set dvid (1.500v - normal vcore voltage in bios), if your normal vcore is 1.365v at 50x. set dvid +0.135v. (normal vid + dvid = 1.500)
use dvid to adjust %100 load vcore. monitor with cpuz.
your vcore now dynamic. when cpu is idle cpuz or hwmonitor will report 0.900v and 16x. at %100 load you will see ~1.5v vcore.
use intel burn test for %100 load not prime.
Not as i really care or it's a break deal for me, but do you know if the UD7 ( or other models ) will get EFI bios in future ( or the dual bios don't allow it on gigabyte ?
This will cause the Turbo / vcore issue and just cycle power on boot.Quote:

As I say I think it's hardware
how many time cycle? did you try wait for 5 minute? sometimes thats happen and will be fixed when you stop change bios settings.
please try wait 5 minute at least if boot fail try drop multipler abit

This happens with everything at stock too... so lowering multi is worthless
