P67 Pro3 UEFI 1.90 here, I'm trying to flash to 2.02c with Instant Flash. I can't get it to recognize my UEFI file at all. I have it in my c: root and on an USB stick, I also tried renaming both to extension .rom and .bin. All I get is "no image file detected".
If I can't get it to work, where would I want the latest DOS flasher?
You have to format yours pendrive to FAT32 or find another one and try. Also use USB 2.0 ports.
Actually my stick is FAT32 but I guess because of disabling USB legacy it didn't work in bios. Anyway I put the files on a FAT32 HDD and that solved it, thanks. I can also report that problems with Xai mouse and legacy support seem to be solved.
Hello guys, i need some help with the performance of my new brand SSD, i will details the things that i already do.
1 - Set on BIOS, AHCI Mode to the intel controller.
2 - I verify on windows device manager if the driver loads ok and its ok.
3 - TRIM are enabled.
Now i gonna to reinstall the SO and remove the OC that i set on my 2500k and Extreme6 to see if this things are affecting to my ssd perfomance :(.

Can somebody help me?
Have you looked for reviews of the SSD you have to compare read/write performance? It'll help give a clearer picture of things at least. If you aren't already, also make sure you are using the latest UEFI for the Extreme6 and make sure all your drivers are up to date.
The SSD seems fine to me, what problem do you think you have?
I already look for pictures of benchs on my ssd and thats the reason i discover my ssd get something wrong. Im using the 2.1 bios version of my p67 extreme 6 mother.
Thanks anyway, y already figured out, it seems like the ssd came with a 512k of allocation size, and when i install the os on it i forgot to format to the default allocation size, now i do that and all the numbers of all benchs change for best.
In a few moments i gonna post a picture of atto with the numbers that i getting righ now after a format and reinstall all.

So I have been following the thread for a while (I have an P67 Extreme4 Gen3) due to constant USB3.0 issues. Nothing I did would work. I upgraded to latest BIOS v2.20 and my front header stopped working in 3.0 all together (would only work with 2.0 devices). So I emailed ASRock and told them my delema. They emailed back and told me they would send me a BIOS chip with version 1.0 on it. It arrived yesterday so I plugged it in, powered up and guess what, it's version 2.20. I was pissed, for a minute. Set the BIOS up the way I like it, wiped my drive and installed windows 7 64-bit. Installed etron drivers version .109 and all is well. All of my USB3.0 ports work perfectly including the front header. I don't know what gives, but all is well now. Maybe there is a corruption in the 2.2 they have on their website? I don't know, I just know everything is currently working fine.
My story and my first post, I think!
Here you got, don't you think there is a little difference betwen this both pictures?

So is it now 1024?
It might be too early to "celebrate" but my 1st impression is with these drivers and Legacy mode disabled on uefi, ALL my 6 usb3 ports work ok!!!! omg.. after 1++ year... with acceptable dpc latency, and no crakles (till now) on sound.
Thanks!!!!
update : during gameplay (BF3) + voice, i saw on dpc latency spikes up to 2134μs, twice as big as with NEC usb3 controller i had measured, but still acceptable* (i mean without noticeable pop and crakles on sound)
I can well imagine manufacturers who chose to use the EJ168 are more than a little pissed at all the issues so its no real surprise a Etron driver appears in double-quick time when a issue is reported. Funny enough, that 1.113 driver came out 2-3 days after me telling my Asrock contacts about the Xonar issues when its plugged into PCIE1 and a Turtlebeach headphone issue. Coincidence? :p:
That should stand correct IF ONLY... that issue with EJ168 had appeared a week ago... the FACT is that issues exist SINCE march 2011 i bought this m/b... so it wasn't so "double quick"... ;)
What exact issues the xonar has..? apart from the bug (fixed via uefi update- i had kudos them in this thread) with upper pci-e 1x slot being disabled affecting all cards, (and saw that most P67 m/b had this issue with initial ivy bridge support uefi), mine works fine, in all slots.
I never had any issues with the Xonar in th top PCIE slot, although on the Z68 and Z77 boards if the Xonar is plugged into the top PCIE slot sometimes when the system boots you'll get VERY fuzzy audio and other times no audio at all. The solutions are to either simply restart the system or switch the Xonar to a different PCIE slot. The issue is being looked into so hopefully there will be a fix soon. By double quick time, I meant how Etron seem to release a new driver every few months, or in some cases days after issues are reported to them. Sadly all I and my contacts can do is tell Etron what problems there are and how to reproduce the issue, its up to Etron themselves to come up with a fix and release a new driver.
New link is up for driver and UEFI downloads.
Ket, can you help me? Where can we order Asrock BIOS chips with older UEFI? Some P67 and Z68 users have upgraded to Ivy Bridge compatible UEFI, but they want now to go back to the earlier UEFI.
Contact Asrock.
I really see no reason at all in trying to downgrade to older UEFI version.
New UEFI works just fine with SB.
If some people got problem it's because they don't read :banana::banana::banana::banana:in "how to flash those new UEFI" pop-up on ASRock website.

Has anyone tested the above driver? Is it better?
I have problem
asrock p67 performance, ivy 3570k uefi 2.1 & 2.20
memory 2200mhz 10 12 12 1.55v stable, 2400, 2600.. not post. Code 23
Maximus mv memory can 3000 mhz for test 2600 stable ;/
24x mem multi in asrock not found ? :shrug:
pll overvoltage on/off , vtt, vccsa 1.1- 1.25v, subtimings edit & no effect :(
P67/Z68 motheboards where not built for runing memory above 2200-2300Mhz. The multipliers appear in bios up to 2800 but it's just from cpu. The cpu can but the motheboard can't.
Z77 motheboards have much better circuits lanes from dimms to cpu.
I have an ASRock P67 Extreme4 Gen3 that I haven't updated the BIOS since I purchased it. I believe the current BIOS is 1.10.
Currently I have a 2600k but now I have a 3770k coming my way and it seems that if I'm to use my new Ivy with this board I need the 2.10 or 2.20 BIOS.
I have always been leery of using Windows to update the BIOS but looking at the BIOS download section that's my only choice.
I haven't booted into my UEFI to know for sure but some of the screenshots and the manual show an Instant Flash option.
Does this option exist and if it does where do I find the BIOS file to use it?Quote:
Instant Flash is a UEFI flash utility embedded in Flash ROM.
Any recommendations on which version to use?
