Is there a mod that stabalizes low voltages? Because even running 1.85v I see my vcore dip as low as 1.65vcore at times, and it isn't my PSU.
Afaik there's only the vdrop/overcurrent protection and vcore mods... as well as vdd, sb vdd and vdimm. Try to ubercool your mosfets, that may reduce your drops a little, a fan blowing to them would be of assistance too.Quote:

The bios 5/5 (be careful) stabilizes vcore voltages too, but maybe you won't see this in hardware monitor cause the monitoring chips are sometimes cr*p...
hey SAE, should i disable "Onboard FDC Controller" in my integrated peripherals? everything else in there including onboard serial port 1, onboard IRDA select, and onboard parallel port are disabled. that sound about right?
in my genie bios settings, where I can disable/enable SATA, above that is "IEEE1394 chip control". can i disable that? and do u have FastWrites enabled in your bios?
Fastwrites always off, as they tend to lock my system up in windows or even before.Quote:

Genie menu showing sth like sata mode/raid directly at the end of the list (scroll fully down)... this has to be disabled as well. (for me it's to diasble the whole list under the voltage settings in genie menu)
...you can disable floppy controller too. But I dunno what effect it has. Never do that cause I need it to transfer bioses and 3dmark files quickly to my internet rig :D
thnx. do u disable the "IEEE1394 chip control" right above the sata/raid option?
Everything in this list ;)Quote:

In the light of the turn of events at the Amdmb/DFI forum, I think we should be prepared to kick things into a higher gear here with regards to getting our heads around the DFI sisters and continue to improve them as benching tools.
It would appear that DFI have such poor QA and PR, that they have upset a great deal of people. The resulting backlash of which seems to have put their online support over the edge. I think that the more enlightened (e.g. the people who are members here) may have to continue the level of user support and build on it in the potential absence of any tangiable DFI support.
With the lack of production bioses, the ignorance/apathy of the TW offices we have been pretty much on our own already and the signs are that they are washing their hands of us. So lets continue looking after each other guys. At least the ranting will not find its way here, so it cannot be used as an excuse (not that it would here) for us to turn a blind eye to ourselves.
No problem, Gaz. I am really fed up with those rants, unkind and offending speech (swearing)... I feel really sad and understand why AG and RGone act like they do. I hope everything gets fine again, and all those peeps hating dfi (it seems) go away. :DQuote:

We stay together, we die together. Bad boys for life ;) :D
I get the feeling that AG didn't realise what he was getting himself in for. It is clear that Taiwan themselves are not interested in helping us and I can see why that would frustrate AG.
I do not believe that DFI Tw have never seen things like the cold boot issues or the incidents of bios hosing like they claim. That is a whitewash.
But at least we can rely on each other here.
btw, SAE. Stop browsing the forums and go and find 2 more 3Dmarks. :p
Yeah. AG is really f***ed...Quote:

P.S. I already found more than that, but cpu variation error. Go and watch my thread ;)
yeah.. he looks pretty pissed off. but he should understand where the ppl are coming from. u will see like at least 2 ppl posting a thread EVERY day there regarding the cold boot or 4 LEDs of death. dfi TW needs to pick it up.. theyre just making us theire guinea pigs.Quote:

Clean this forum up. No longer will I accept anything but users/customers seeking help. You want to discuss how crappy DFI is, go find another forum/section or complain to the company offices.
Your :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:ing and moaning belongs in an email to DFI.
This forum is for help. Not for you to complain to me about how much you hate DFI.
You dont like DFI, you have three options:
1. ask for help. We (RG and I) will do our best to help you out.
2. sell/return your motherboard and buy something else
3. write or call the DFI offices.
My job is not to filter out all the bs that is going on here. My job and RG's job is to try to help people fix issues.
We do not get paid to listen to your opinions of how crappy you think we or our company is. That is what management gets paid to listen to.
We are DFI techs to try and help customers solve issues.
WHen you plug up a forum with ranting and raving all it does is make it impossible for users to find the help they need.
So here is your final word on this. Police yourselves and clean this place up and use it strictly for what it was intended for, or we (the DFI reps) will vacate it and you will be on your own.
This is exactly what has happened at the Abit section, and all the other sections that have lost their reps. They moved on to a place they had complete control over so they could actually help customers.
That is exactly what is going to happen here if things persist in the manner they are going.
Before you reply back with any rude comments, remember that there are hundreds of users that come to this particular section. Don't bother opening your mouth if its going to be something that ruins it for everyone else. Because it will ruin it for everyone else.
Mods and admins here are not going to police you like you need to be policed. I cannot police you here.
I can choose to move on to a place where I can police you and the content you post.
Its up to you. Make your choice and remember that many many others depend on this forum for help and insight and discussion.
PERIOD. END OF DISCUSSION. Take it or leave it, it is entirely up to you as a community.
They Qualify for xtreme methinks and would add yet another dimention to thinks here (mispellings intentional) Should be fun heheheheh....:frag: :bounces: :wierd: :explode:
P.S. Drag Evilous in here too, need someone to help tinker w/ biosi.
(I really have to get my pile of parts together so I can play coherently)
SAE : where can i get dfi beta0505 bios thanks
My DFI contines to amaze me.
Running 240fsb one stick of 512mb CH-5 and 2 sticks of 256mb BH-5. Prime95 stable. 11-2-2-2-2 timings with CPC disabled (havent tried enabled) 3.3v
:toast:
Im in the DFI camp just in time for them to stop support? heh
Shiny new Infinity going to be mod'd tommorrow. LPuB already tweaked and screaming.
I give up on ABit, huge investment awaiting a simple bios tweak, fk them.
nice mods there Lastviking. there were realy somthing i could use there!
I got the
dfi infinity revA+
2 *256 KHXpc2700 (BH-5)
xp2500m
watercooled and put heatsinks on northbridge/southbridge
The best I can do stable is

I am not running any special bios as of yet I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction as to which one?
Also what do you recommend high FSB or clock speed? Also I can get 240 FSB out of my memory and run for hours, but if I restart my rig it fails to boot... =(
Also I have a cold boot problem, the first power on fails to boot, so turn off and on again and I am solid.
any tips you guys can give me would be awesome and much apprieciated.
ps. I am also having trouble with dual channel, my machine will post but after windows start up splash screen it crashes and restarts.
TO ANSWER THE ?
It is 2*256KHXpc2700 double-sided.
Thank you very much for you help
For best overall stability use 1-21... here: http://www.dfi-street.com/bios.htmlQuote:

Is your KHX single or double sided? And a very special question ;) :
what exactly is the the best you can do stably as the link does not show any pic for me... ? (he edited :D )
P.S. Welcome to the sickness :toast:
responded in previous post thanks SAE
Thats the official infinity bios 11/27 for u. It really is a stinker. Any other bios helps the problem (at least they will warm boot from overclocked settings). The latest 4/29 & 5/5 solve the cold boot issue altogether for me but they do have a failure rate when flashing. No one can say which bios suits ur board, u just have to suck it and see.Quote:

I got the 1/21 bios flashed and its running sweet, I am still having problems with Dual channel, I have double-sided KHX pc2700 it will post, then boot windows and crashes right away. I am running CPC now with the new bios and I no longer am experiencing cold boot problems.
here is a link to my setup right now

I haven't yet messed around with anything new except for CPC and trying to get Dual channel to work properly I hope on of you guys gots an answer for me:stick:
Thanks guys
Late
I would check stability in single channel first, cpc off. Put both sticks in the close set dimm slots (dimm 1 & 2). Then move the middle (dimm 2) stick to the right (dimm 3) and run in dual channel. Find ur max o/c. Then turn cpc on and start at 200fsb and work up. Then when u find ur max o/c with cpc on (in dual channel) decide which gives the best performance: the max fsb with cpc off or cpc on.
If u have trouble with dual channel its the board's fault if u can run nicely in single channel. Double sided ram and cpc enabled can work if you are lucky, but its generally the norm the cpc is off for ds ram. I believe the Kingston ram is double sided even with 256Mb, unlike my twinmos bh-5.
not really sure about that.. i tried it and i lost about 500 pts in 3dmark01..i was using cat 4.1:)Quote:
