So I found a solution using these HEX codes, which ofcourse didn't work for me.
HEX = Volts HEX = Volts
00 = 1.5500 14 = 1.3000
01 = 1.5375 15 = 1.2875
02 = 1.5250 16 = 1.2750
03 = 1.5125 17 = 1.2625
04 = 1.5000 18 = 1.2500
05 = 1.4875 19 = 1.2375
06 = 1.4750 1A = 1.2250
07 = 1.4625 1B = 1.2125
08 = 1.4500 1C = 1.2000
09 = 1.4375 1D = 1.1875
0A = 1.4250 1E = 1.1750
0B = 1.4125 1F = 1.1625
0C = 1.4000 20 = 1.1500
0D = 1.3875 21 = 1.1375
0E = 1.3750 22 = 1.1250
0F = 1.3625 23 = 1.1125
10 = 1.3500 24 = 1.1000
11 = 1.3375 25 = 1.0875
12 = 1.3250 26 = 1.0750
13 = 1.3125 27 = 1.0625
1. Enters Advanced Mode and enters new HEX Code (stock is 1E - 1.175v).
2. Computer shutdown, followed by computer turnon and all fans running at 100%.
3. Only way to solve it is Clear CMOS.
4. I come back to BIOS and now the HEX code is set at 00(1.55v). Save and Exit which will result in 2. again.
5. Now I need to remove the MB battery in order to reset my NB-VID back to 1E.
And this is where I am. I have tried with several HEX codes, but none seems to work as i get the same result all over. I am using the latest BETA Bios on DFI's webpage 1/20/2009.
Am I doing something horribly wrong when applying these codes, cause it seems to work with others who use the same board as me (in signature).
