Wow, that's bizarre, it wasn't there or on the ftp site when I looked earlier. I must have the pages cached.
Thanks, I'm going to update today.
it's never been on ftp site that i know of ftp://ftp.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/socket775/P5K_Premium/
btw be sure to use ezflash not windows update
Rich
Easyflash'ed without problems.
Thanks Rich.
np always glad to help if i can
Rich
Anybody have any luck messing w/ NB or CPU skew?
I'm thinking of trying some random combinations and seeing if anything helps me get the FSB higher on my E0 Q9550.
it dosent seem to do anything for me but maybe on newer chips it will let us know i'll be going e8400 or e8500 later this year
Rich
Don't use windows update with 0702 I destroyed 2 boards trying to flash through windows.
i always use ezflash and flash drive no way i'll use windows flash
Rich
use the kodakey to flash all asus mobo ...
Easy flash to go forwards, Koda key to go back, had to do this once with 0612 back to 0402.
its sure nice knowing you can flash back if need be but im very happy with 0702 bios
Rich
I didn't try every combination, but it didn't seem to help much. It might help get a MHz or 2 on the FSB at 300-400ps (for me), but that's it.Quote:

Hi Guys,
2 days ago I bought a new HDD - WD6400AAKS 640GB. I made an image of system partition from old HDD and put it into new hdd. But new drive behaves strangely for example, max transfer over a copy at TC I have 50MB/s and Event Viewer I have some errors associated with the drive ("The driver detected a controller error" or something like that) ...
Previously, the system was installed (Windows 2003) on the old disk with IDE mode in the BIOS and I did not install any drivers (F6). I thought this might be the problem? That drive was SATA1, this new one is SATA2 and NCQ is.
I was thinking what to do:
1. Download and install the Intel Matrix Storage Manager?
2. Download, install the Intel Matrix Storage Manager and set AHCI mode in the BIOS?
3. Set AHCI mode, install a new system by pressing F6 and install the drivers from a floppy disk (with Intel Matrix Storage Manager or JBM36X Raid Configurer??).
4. Leave IDE mode in the BIOS, install a new system by pressing F6 and wgrywajac appropriate stery (Intel Matrix Storage Manager or JBM36X Raid Configurer??)
What do you think?
PS. Sorry for my english...
try a window's repair with f6 driver's with ahci if that dont work try ide then ahci later

no one using this board anymore guess im a little late getting a e8400 in my board but this mb still rock's
Rich
Im running one right now in one of my systems and have no reason to change it. This board rocks indeed, running my Wolfy at 4500 24/7 since january with zero problems on water. Max with this older SLAPL stepping is 4900 but Im getting in a fresh EO 8600 any day now to play with as a gift. Its a very solid board.
glad to see someone beside's me is still using this mb it's been a great mb for the last 8 mouth's or so i'll be keeping it for sometime with the e8400 it's all i need may up grade the video card
Rich
Since bios 0702 this MB and me have been friends :)
Still using it with a E3110 @ 4,0 24/7.
Did bench my Premium against my old P5W DH - latter was actually slightly faster
in syntetic benchmarks. Maybe due to tighter latencies in the northbridge?
Have a WB on the NB - never bothered to find max FSB, but it's high (well over 500).
Overall, a very stable MB - will stay for at least one more year ( I think :rolleyes: )
yeah i still have my old p5w dh also its my back up still running strong and i plan on staying wit this mb for sometime to come 445 fsb is good nuff for me
Rich
I am still on this MB and no plan to go anywhere soon-lol! Am not that interested in benches just the fun of trying to overclock so this board work well for me. Was going to get an E8400/E8600 to play with but from what I have read , apart from seeing higher overclocks, its doesnt seem to give any real benefit over an overclocked quad at 3.6 on games so I havent bothered. Will stick with this until the new range of CPU's/MB is out next year and see what that offers over this. Might get some higher spec drives and play with the MAtrix raid some more for faster performance though.Quote:

Hey guys, having a weird issue with this board, after playing around with a gentoo livecd and then proceeding to reboot as normal, well it won't! It will power up and stay powered on but no post, no video, no power at the usb ports, nothing but fans/lights to indicate it is switched on.
I have switched cpu and ram out to no avail so im pretty sure it's the board.
A bit of a shot in the dark but maybe somebody can help, I'm all out of ideas...
have you tryed clearing cmos by pulling power from wall then remove the cmos battery and setting ctr jumper on 2/3 for 10 to 20 min.s
