Then remove the link!!

Did a little searching and found this first thing. Gonna keep looking around to see what else is out there. Now I'm at work so I can't check if it's corrupted or not yet.
ftp://ftp.asus.com.tw/pub/ASUS/mb/so...5E/P5E0605.zip
omga that seems to fail for me & the old one posted by intrepid is still up & bad
I some good news about P5E w/bios 602!!
I was never able to get a 3.6ghz stable OC from my P5K Deluxe board w/Q6600 G0. The P5E is running stable at the speed!
Same memory and proc.
seems to be re-upped.
The new one is not corrupt.
Not at home to try it BTW :-(
Asus not providing detailed bios change logs is very unprofessional.
i'll be the guinea pig, if i don't post back it means it's bad :D
off to flash 605
haven't seen any changes in the bios so far, we'll just have to wait ASUS for a LITTLE information
here's a mirror for the lastest bios, i know we all hate to download from asus ftp
http://mkultra.qc.to/P5E0605.zip
im also with bios 0605 , samething as 0602 ( 4:5 divider no go , only with bios 0107)
regards
Interesting, from the 600 series only 605 is left on the ASUS ftp.
all the others were beta, it probably means this one is final
502 602 605 i got em saved on my desk top 602 installed think i'll wait to see what happens
Flashed the 605, but the 4:5 divisor still broken; unbelievable. After bios 0107 I lost this divisor and my top overcloking.
Thanks to Asus I miss the good old days with my Opteron and DFI
Tonight was all about 3D testing, but after I ran out of LN2, I did one run of SPI before the pot got to warm.
Not a clean boot, zero tweaks in use, mem was only running about 500Mhz cas 4, but there maybe power in this board after all.

Sorry guys, but I was wrong, the divisor that is not working is the 1:1. For some reason, when using high FSB, the board doesn't post using this divisor.
This is my setup:
Multi 8 x Bus 456 =3648. At 333 strap I can choose: 993, 1095 or 1460. For some reason 993 doesn’t work, only 1095
Went back to 0170
Anyone here Using the P5E3 and able to downgrade from BIOS 1001? Old AFUDOS do NOT work, neither does old ASUS Update Tool.
Any idea anyone? :(
hey askimo leave your strap setting on auto. just forget the damn thing.
Go straight to the divider you want and go from there. I repeat leave the strap setting on Auto!.

I already posted this reply to your last post:

AFUDOS should always work. Don't know why you're having trouble. Flashing a bios regardless of date or bios revision will always work with the DOS flash utility. What exactly is happening when you use AFUDOS? By the way, I assume you've tried ASUS EZ Flash 2 in the bios. I've never had a problem flashing to an old bios revision using ASUS EZ Flash 2.
May I suggest you download the AFUDOS flash utility directly from American Megatrends here:
AFUDOS v4.xx: http://www.ami.com/support/bios.cfm
Read the instructions and then click on "AFUDOS v4.xx" to download.
ALSO notice that they have AFUWIN v4.xx - BIOS utility with GUI interface
It has same command line parameters and behavior as AFUDOS plus a simple graphical interface
NOTE: I have not tested these utilities. I'm not sure if the AFUWIN will work with your bios. AFUWin (run from windows) states it doesn't support my bios (P5E). If you still have problems, check the forums and email Asus. Good Luck and let us know when you find a solution.
Hi.
EZFlash says "ROM is older than existing ROM" - and thats it. AFUDOS gives the same message. Switches /n or /pbnc do are not allowed. I used every afudos version I could get my fingers on ..
But I found a possibility: It is possible to flash the same BIOS version that is already installed, power off the system during flash and then the CrashFree BIOS function uses the mainboard cd to recover the BIOS. This "workaround" works ..
But also, Qfan does not work and all the temperatures do not change any more, regardless of the used BIOS version. CPU-temperature is always 26°C. No matter how hard I overclock or if system is idle. But it was like this since I did the first BIOS flash. With the release version, Qfan did work, but my CPU was not recognised correctly, so I flashed to 1001. I think I got a little buggy one here ..Now I'm making my way down the BIOS versions, trying to get Qfan and temperature reading working again.
Despite all this, the board runs fine, my E8200 can be pushed to 4GHz and Board reaches a max FSB of about 520MHz without changing a FSB related voltage setting. Not tested further yet, because of the temperature problems. Its not easy to overclock save, if you don't know about the temperatures .. ;)
flashed to 605 & Boom dead machine !!! right off the bat !
no setting for DDR1002 either
back at 602 I KNEW I should have stayed there !
EDIT >>>>
i had success on the flashing of the BIOS
but I could not set the DDR to 1002 with this new BIOS
& on the older BIOS(502 & 602) i was able to set the DDR at 1066 let it fail ,get the failed O/C page,then hit F1 to go back to the failed settings & THEN go into BIOS at the failed setup & then it would let me set it to a bunch of different setting that i could not set on the :confused: 1ST setting of the DDR
but with the NEW BIOS on settingg DDR to 1066 the machine failed & Died ..no way to get anything, BUT black screen, led lights & spinning fans
< -> NaDa ,nothing could get the machine to post
I finally had to switch the CLRTC switch to off & wait 5 minutes before switching it back on & then it went into default settings & posted
\at that point it booted into auto at the stock settings ...
then i flash back to 502 & do what i had done before & got stable DDR1002 soo I flashed agin to 602 & got the same thing >stable DDR1002< also there SOO I;m Sticking with 602 :cool: as it lets me play around with settings that are not there in the New Bios
Wierd is all I can say ! :eek:
I think it's the X38 chipset & they are wildly different from each other
Dudes, Are there any software to monitor NB & SB temps & voltages and Vdimm with Asus P5E3 WS PRO? Everest doesn´t detect those sensors.
