Mine must be horrible too cause i have to be on 1.56v to b able to hit 3.3 (e6600) i dont know what week is but no way i can pass 3.4 ,using F8a
not sure but dont see that much or none dif from F6 that i was using i meant other than voltage options and stuff
I think my MB is one of the boggus DS3 ,
the DS3 can be flakey over 1.56v
and the mobo isnt going to help you lower the voltages much,
meaning if one board you have use 1.56v, then maybe is you switch to let's say the P5B Dlx your probably going to have to use 1.56v also but possible a litlte lower like 1.53 or 1.54v cuz its a more stable board.
but in general if you have to use that much voltage your screwed all around. its a bad clocker.
only way to change that would be to sell it and buy a brand new one or a proven one from the forums.
Tanx guys, New Updated List :

6.More/better Vcore selections between 1.600v and 1.800v (now it go's from 1.600v directly to 1.800v, huge jump!) in S3/DS3/DS4/DQ6
7.Ram voltage being displayed as failed over +0.325v in S3/DS3/DS4/DQ6 boards

15.BigTyphoon 120mm Fan dosent start while boot in S3/DS3/DS4/DQ6 boards
16.Creative Blaster Modems sometime cause crash whilst disconnect in Windows XP in S3/DS3/DS4/DQ6 boards
Wow! That's quite a list. Considering the Bios revs have cranked out 3-4 fixes max per...
@ the vista 4vs2 gig:
"A fresh install of Windows Vista Ultimate will hog over 1GB of system memory - just to run."
That leads me to believe they didn't bother to optimize the system. Surely there are tweaks in the OS similar to XP that can calm the OS down.
yeah 1.55 is harsh.
Yea Like Gigabyte would ever put that much work into a bios fix...
and to Jodiuh:
"A fresh install of Windows Vista Ultimate will hog over 1GB of system memory - just to run."
Running Pre-RTM build right now and only at 540mb ram used on a 2gb system and thats no tweaks, just installed and configured other apps.
Are running the "ULTIMATE" version?
Quote:
"A fresh install of Windows Vista Ultimate will hog over 1GB of system memory - just to run."
that is 100000% bullsh|t and who ever said that has no friggin clue and has never ran Vista.
500-700meg yes but a gig bullsh|t never nope sorry.
its rounded up if its more than 512 MB XD ....
Is this a list of items that need to be fixed or are being worked on in the beta bios?

EIST CE1 must have control over the voltages when you manually set it, that shuts down the throttle functions.
again.. you overclock.. you lose the throttling ability. and throttling on an overclock isnt smart anyways. i dont think i need to explain why.
ok guys i've said this many times and most people overlook it so i'll throw it out there one more time.Quote:
10.Intel AHCI bios needs to be updated from 4 Aug 2006 to the newer 13 September 2006 in S3/DS3/DS4/DQ6 boards
the S3 and DS3 does not use the intel SATA controller nor the intel SATA/AHCI controller. i am not so sure that the DS4 does either.
you will know it uses it when you have to install INTEL.. let me repeat that INTEL ahci drivers. neither the S3 and DS3 do that. you have to install the JMICRON drivers. lets say that again. J M I C R O N drivers.
if you have to install the jmicron drivers on the DS4 and DQ6 then guess what your not using the intel SATA/RAID/AHCI controller either.
im sorry who's boot time is slow. my boot time is fast enough my monitor isnt even on until its about 1.5 seconds prior to XP loading.Quote:
11.Speed up the boot time in S3/DS3/DS4/DQ6 boards
slow boot is caused by enabling AHCI/RAID. you want raid/ahci.. guess what you get a slower boot. once again this is the result of enabling a controller that has to initialize and read any disks that are attached to it.
you cant fix this. period.
another major issue of slow booting is USB devices and especially usb devices hooked to a usb hub.
once againnnnn.. this is unavoidable. the usb bus has to be initialized and it has to be given time to read the devices.
this cant be fixed. but sOME usb devices take longer to initialize. and some usb hubs.. they are a HUGE pain in the arse as the bios has to see the hub.. then querry the hub for any devices,,, then see the devices then querry the device to know what it is and if it should use it as a bootable device.
again,, punishment for adding external devices that have to be added to the boot sequence.
ok wait what ? ok,, what ?? what?? ok lets start by saying that 1) i hope your not talking about overclocking. cuz we dont oc and flash the bios kids.. right ? god i hope you know this.Quote:
14.After flash to F7/F8 beta when system get restart it cant boot and should do turn off and again turn on to boot in S3/DS3/DS4/DQ6 boards
after flashing these last few bios's there ae absolutely zero boot issues. if your system powers off then on again do i really have to say why ? its resetting the strap setting and voltages and timings and adjusting to what you have set in the bios to what it thinks it should be using ...
i've never heard of this issue and i think you guys are confusing the natural state of things with a random issue 1 or 2 guys have.
please tell me you tried a different fan cuz the Big Typhoon is not the issue the issue. the issue is the way the board boots up with the fan controls. and the fan doesnt need to be on until the tmep sensor tells it to come on and if the bios is set to turn the fan on at a certain temp.. guess what.. it aint coming on until that speed.Quote:
15.BigTyphoon 120mm Fan dosent start while boot in S3/DS3/DS4/DQ6 boards
ok wait.. a creative 56k modem.. sh|t i havent seen one of those for YEARS and that was only at walmart or big time el cheapo mom and pop pc stores.Quote:
16.Creative Blaster Modems sometime cause crash whilst disconnect in Windows XP in S3/DS3/DS4/DQ6 boards
lets be real this is an old modem.
and i have no clue what you mean and neither will gigabyte.
the system will crash when you disconnect the modem ? WHAT?!
the creative modem is an internal PCI modem im sorry but wtf did you think was going to happen if you removed the modem with the pc on.
ok gentlemen lets be real here and look at this from a Manufacturers perspective.
why do that ? cuz there are only like 2 or 3 LEGITIMATE issues in that entire list.
the others are bogus 1 time 1 person issues and gigabyte is INSTANTLY going to remove it from the list.
they will also remove and forget about EVERY single issue that you dont have documented proof of. dont think so? i can guarentee you they will do that.
i see only 2 or 3 issues in that entire list that are happening to more than 1 person.
that entire list is going to get thrown away if you dont have a large number of people with the issue, and if you cant back it up.
im not trying to be a :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana: here but you cant submnit a list like that to a company and expect them to do anything about it if you do not list for them VERY specific information about how this happens and when , and who, what where when.
if you dont.. then they will laugh at you and throw it away.
im not saying those things are not happening, but i am saying that too many of those are a one time one or two person issue that giabyt eisnt oging to address. and to be realistic no company in the industry is going to. and no company is going to address any of them unless you provide proof of those claims.
you also need to stop addressing the issues as S3/DS3/DS4/DQ6 when they are not they are localaized ot only 1 board or 1 or 2 boards. not all the baords show the same issues.
i persoanlly find the creative modem issue extremely laughable.
you didnt explain what you mean and its 1 person correct ?
what do you mean by sometimes crash whilst disconnect ? disconnect what ? its an internal modem there isnt anything to disconnect.
and you need to list the EXACT specific make and model and revision and what drivers that person is using and what exactly they are doing when it crashes in windows.
your far to vague on nearly every issue.
i applaud the effort i truly do but i have worked for these types of companies and am in a similar position now, and unless you go into great detail, and prove it, they wont do anything about it.
for one what this is saying is after i flash the bios not OCed and i just boot up like i did today and it took 3 resets to get the computer to beep up, or if it beeps up it hangs at the windows loading screen or it gets past that and locks up right after that screen and my monitor is off, so im sorry you are in the wrong here this is a issue, so dont falsely accuse.Quote:

You're right about your problem Gooface, but I have to say that Lestat is making a good point here. And I don't really agree with most of your posts Lestat:toast: , but these are quite good points here:fact: .
If we would drop this list at Gigabyte they would probably toss in into their virtual trashcan because of its ridiculesy (if that is even a real word:p: ). If we want the list to be taken seriously we would have to put on serious (read real) stuff on it!
By disconnect the modem he could be referring to a server connection. Disconnecting from the motherboard would cause his whole world to come crashing down around his ears. Anyway this is probably a driver incompatiblity problem.Quote:

Most of those problems listed won't get fixed without a more detailed discription and the likelyhood the BIOS is the cause.
OK, dammit to betsy....bios update!!
Is anyone still mirroring the beta bioses? I started on the first page and the links there are dead/files deleted.
Is anyone gonna buy the new OCZ 850W Gamextreme?, i changed my router again!...sorry, OT --> bored!
richard update is coming... thats all i can say

the next question is, and probably more important than any other question is. Who is his internet service provider? and is he using THEIR software.
if he says AOL im done. lol.
disconnecting from the service provider wouldn't, under any normal circumstances, cause any issues to happen.
if the modem is bad, if the drivers are old, if the ISP software is crap,, then this could cause any number of issues.
this in no way shape or form is caused by the motherboard UNLESS!!! its an IRQ issue.
tell the guy to check his IRQ layout. if that thing is sharing an IRQ with something tell him to pull it out of the slot its in and move it to a different slot.
They are still there m8 http://cranox.com/Gigabyte/DS3/Quote:
