So... I just had a strange situation with my motherboard just now, I was just testing this new bios, reapplying my overclock, and then suddenly when playing a game, the PC start to smell of something burning, So i switch it off from the mains ASAP!. so I tested see if it still works, I disabled all the PCI-E lanes part from my main GPU, and also reset the bios, computer booted fine... got into windows ran a quick bench all was fine still, rebooted with all PCI-E ports enabled... and now the PC is running like normal... But now the case smells of burnt plasticy smell... Im worried lol

I tested the 2105, with the default settings, there is no difference in boot time

2003: Post for 5 sec
2105: Post for 3 sec

With 2105, there is no red background with the logo Rog (Rog just the logo)
If I disable the "full screen" (post in 5 seconds by default), there is nothing, no POST (difficult to get into the bios) but I feel that it is faster

Someone has good settings to speed up the boot?

Thanks

It would be better if we can see the post screen.

I would have to make a picture :p:

With bios 2105, if I leave the default settings (full screen enabled, and POST to 3 sec), there is no difference in boot time with bios 2003 (full screen enabled and POST to 5 sec with 2003)
If I disable the full screen with 2105, POST to 5 sec, but at boot, once it starts directly on the Windows 7 logo animation, once I have the IDE indicated. But I feel that it is faster

And with 2105, there is no ROG red background with full screen enabled, just a ROG logo on a black background

EDIT:

Boot: 35sec (to the desktop windows)
Reboot: 25sec (to the desktop windows)

This is the initialization of boot that is long (no initialization for reboot)

Sorry mate. You mistaken my point. What i am trying to say that I would like to see the post screen appear. After the update. I cannot see any post screen and I dont enabled logo screen at all.

The post screen appear before the Windows logo? (sorry for my understanding of English)
You want a screen of the bios settings, that I have?

For me, with full screen I just see the ROG logo before the Windows logo (mode AHCI)
Without the full screen, I see indication IDE (and sometimes I see nothing at all)

It seems like my memory overclocks with the same timings/voltages aren't stable since flashing to 2xxx...

You can adjust post delay time to be longer (if for example you find it hard to enter BIOS)
You can disable Fast boot to make it post not as fast during resets

ONLY IF 2003 BIOS or NEWER
To Flash back to 1xxx.ROM, Rename 1xxx.rom to ERALL.ROM and Use USB Flashback

Hello!
I have problem with new bios 2xxx my i7-3960x ES (QA8V) doesn't works with new bios: it shows the post code 00,01. On the 1404 BIOS it works fine but then I flash 2003 it stops working.
I try to return to the 1404 by the method You wrote but I can't. Can You help?

P.S.
With all Serial CPU's like 3820,3930,3960 MoBo works fine!
And the CPU i7-3960x ES (QA8V) work on the MoBo with 1404 or later BIOS.

I just mounted the MIPS Full Block on my RIVE and am happy with it so far. For whatever reason, I can't link the page to it directly, just search for 'ASUS Rampage 4 Extreme Cooler Set Nickel POM Black' on www.mips-computer.com (under 'Mainboard Sets'/'Nickel POM Black').

Is there exact CPU support list?

And I also can't do by this way:
To Flash back to 1xxx.ROM, Rename 1xxx.rom to ERALL.ROM and Use USB Flashback

Now I have 2105 bios.
I'm using usb 2.0 flash with fat32 insert in white slot. The led blinks but at the end nothing happens and I still have 2105 Bios.
