with O-ROM > 10.1.0.1008 after initial successful flash there is no go for raid crtl - i it freezes. not worth trying.
Hey I told ketabout my problems of testing on p5q deluxe atm, the psu for that rig burned and I wonīt buy new 1 at least till I came back from holidays but the little I could test that rig was working perfect even with last intel orom, right that I couldnīt test raid configs, but reading you maybe would be good to stick this mobo with version 9 orom, or each one can really go trying some versions and choose the right one for his config, itīs very easy replace 1 rom vs other with mmtool.
With P8Z77 Iīm using orom 8086-2822-11201527 and working perfect, with p5q I have 8086-2822-11501414 and at least Crucial M4 and WD black and green working great on single configs.
Regards
did u made the 11.5.0.1414 orom patch yourself? can you confirm that it works on raid0? it will be great to have raid0 trim support on asus p45. i know it does work on DFI LP DK P45 T2RS.Quote:

any chance of seeing soon the mBios-es? .. P5Q-Dlx in particular?
ello, greetings from Spain, this is my first post, but I have a lot of time reading and working with the bios "Ket" in my Asus P5Qpro (thanks for your work). Recently acquired two SSD of 128 GB each to put them in Raid0 with intel controller board. Researching the net I found a lot to the famous "o-roms" intel, and the problem with their latest versions with raid0 (in normal mode work well), but if you try to put two SSD in Raid0 with any version "or -rom "intel to 10.1 over the computer at startup will crash and we will remove mode" raid "of the plate to take over control of the system as it becomes very unstable and only work in AHCI mode or IDE .
Sad to see that you have a computer powerful enough to keep squeezing the most and that neglect is not possible to update the controller BIOS to the latest version (thanks Ket by minitutorial I read in another post on how to use the mmtools) .
I've tried all the bios or official intel-roms that are in "win-lite forum" and station-drivers ... any and all functions are blocked in the boot, except to version 10.1 as indicated above Ket.
My question is ... if there is any way to edit or intel-ROM, or if there are any changes to these to make them compatible with Raid0 mode.
I've done a thousand tests and it is clear that with the latest version of the BIOS modified Ket the latest versions of "0-rom" intel and go great with TRIM support without blocking, but in normal mode, not raid.
There must be something to tell us why crashes, the P45 chipset is problematic but not old enough to ignore the thousands of users that remain with this chipset, so I have not lost hope that somewhere Intel then update their O-roms compatible with all chipsets.
greetings.
I suspect that the problem is not the P45 chipset, its the size ~120KB of the new O-ROMS (in uncompressed data) that no the fit the rezerved 90K ROM resulting in the board reading at the wrong address from the ROM module.
So the only chance to make it work for P5 motherboards is to somehow shrink the size of the o-rom (?! abbreviation the txt strings inside) to 90K.
True, the P45 is not the problem apparently actually read that a P45 gigabyte or msi, which had been operating the Raid0 with the latest intel O-ROM on these motherboards.Quote:

I also read somewhere that some motherboards like asus deluxe p5 series were able to work with the latest raid0 mode or-rom, but that this had to change your classic bios to UEFI bios, which launched the first asus when imposed this standard, but they were not really tested in the deluxe asus p5 and gave a lot of instability problems, plus it would lose the optimizations applied "Ket" these plates, as new memory tables and a more refined OC .
I'm looking to go out where the hell all o-roms and can not find them. We all know that Station-Win-lite drivers and have them on their websites, but the intel site is almost impossible to find the happy o-roms, to find a publisher for such changes.
http://www.win-lite.de/wbb/board208-...ady-extracted/
http://www.station-drivers.com/forum...hp?f=32&t=3910
I do not give up, keep looking for a solution there, and as I said before, we could buy new motherboards and change teams, but when a team is so optimized and that works really well ... I hate not being able to debug more.
Had asus p5qpro UEFI bios or other p5q UEFI bios compatible with p5qpro?
PS: Sorry for my English, not to sound rude to some expressions.
Greetings and thanks for answering.
I read that some users are looking for the mBIOS, but link are no longer available. I have a backup file of the all P5Q-E mBIOS, If it can help I did an upload here:
http://d01.megashares.com/dl/7w9eUiw/P5Q-E mBIOS.zip
P.S. Why i can't go to page 98 and 97 is incomplete?
At the top there is: Results 2,401 to 2,425 of 2434.... but I can view only from 2401 to 2407 in page 97... and if I click page 98 appear the same page 97 with only 7 posts
... oh and now I am in 2408... strange thing:shrug:
Hello! I'm using ket's m-bios for P5Q- Deluxe for a couple of years now with no problems. And i want to thank him fro that! Now, i want to buy a SDD and after a lot of research i can't decide which o-rom sould i use. I'm not interest in raid 0. From what i have read they say that it's better to use o-rom 11.2.xxx and RST 11.2.xxx for older motherboards than the 11.5.xxx o-rom and RST. Does any one here tried o-rom 11.2.xxx in P5Q Deluxe? Does it work in AHCI mode? Does even Ket's latest beta m-bios work in P5Q-Deluxe in AHCI mode?
It dosenīt work in raid mode with o-roms 11.2.xxx but if you donīt wonna raid mode... it works fine in single sata ahci mode with all o-roms... last o-roms = trim support.Quote:

Sorry, my english is terrible.
Thank you for your reply. I'm asking cuz i read that P5Q Deluxe does not even boot (Power Up) with o-rom 11.2.xxx. But it does boot (Power Up) with 11.5.xxx. I'm only speaking for P5Q Deluxe. Because if i flash ket's latest beta bios with o-rom 11.2.0.1527 and my P5Q Deluxe does not boot (Power Up) i'm pretty much screwed. :(Quote:

Hello again! I bought Samsung's 830 SSD 128Gb and everything is working perfectly fine with the latest Ket's Beta m-bios for P5Q Deluxe in AHCI mode! Just letting you know guys! Thanx Gordon1 for your help and thanx again Ket for keeping our motherboards alive! :)Quote:

it's the one with theses changes:
- Replace memory table with P5Q Pro Turbo 602 table
- Update Intel RST O-ROM to v11.2.0.1527
- Replace P6 table with P6 table from P5Q Premium 2406
- Update JMicron to v1.07.28
- Update Marvell 88SE6121 to v1.1.0.L73
- Update Marvell Yukon to v6.6.2.3
I'm running it succesfully with 4x 1TB Samsung Spinpoint in AHCI mode.
btw, somewhere on the internet I've found P5Q Deluxe EFI Bioses (revision 0221)
moded with Intel RAID ROM 10.1.0.1008 and 11.0.0.1339
filenames are:
ASUS_P5Q_Deluxe_0221_IR10.1.0.1008_OROM_MOD.rar
ASUS_P5Q_Deluxe_0221_IR11.0.0.1339_OROM_MOD.rar
you can just google em :)
If anyone has experience running P5Q Deluxe with EFI "bios" (or moding EFI bios), plese post your experience :)
ASUS_P5Q_Deluxe_0221 EFI does not start with FSB 400 + DDR-2 800 + FSB SRAP 400 :(((Quote:

I'll be finishing these mBIOSes later today, consider them a early christmas present and the final mBIOS files I will make - the P45 is 5 years old now, its got all the improvements it can handle with these mBIOSes. The reason intel O-ROMS newer than 10.1 don't work correctly is partly down to the size of the O-ROM, but also the BIOS itself with the P45 boards. In some cases there just isn't enough space on the ROM chip for the larger O-ROM, in other cases the problem lay in how the O-ROM is read. The "ideal" O-ROM to use on the P45 is 10.1, no newer. Its highly unlikely intel will change their O-ROM to work with boards such as the P45 simply because its how intel operate - they like forcing users into going and buying new hardware. AFAIK even the Z68 chipset doesn't get trim support willingly. Modders have to inject new O-ROMs themselves if manufacturers don't do it and last I heard intel were unwilling to add trim support to the Z68, only the Z77 onward.
Well, that was faster than I expected, but FINAL versions of the 5th anniversary special mBIOSes are now available from the first post. Beta versions are still available for anyone that wants the newer intel O-ROM (11.2). The only change to these final versions is the O-ROM has been downgraded from 11.2 to 10.1 for maximum compatibility and hopefully, zero problems.
Has anyone tested the beta BIOSes on the P5Q Pro Turbo yet?
I am using mine as a RAID5 NAS and I guess I will have issues with > 2.2TB drives unless the updated intel Option ROM works.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_...ger_option_ROM
I would like to switch from these 500 GB drives to 2/3TB drives at some point in the future without needing to purchase another LGA 1155 machine to run them...
Thanks a lot for the BIOS work Ket.
I am kinda afraid to test myself first since I don't have a floppy drive lying around for recovery that I know of.

Simplest solution: Buy a pre-flashed EEPROM chip for your board as backup, they shouldn't cost anymore than about ?/$10.
Hi, flashed the P5Q Series 5th Anniversary BETA mBIOSes for my P5Q-E so far so good, thank you Ket for the Christmas present. :)

Hello Ket,
I have a question that I really hope you can help me out with. My motherboard is P5Q Pro and I'm currently running the latest official bios version 2102.
I got a 3TB hard drive today, the bios recognizes the disk as 801GB capacity while windows sees the whole 2.72 TB. I'm wondering if it's a problem that the bios isn't seeing the disks full capacity? ( Eventhough in windows everything is cool )
Would updating to any of your modded bios'es fix the problem?
Thanks a lot in advance man,
A quick question, when I updated my BIOS to Ket's BIOS, should I see a different BIOS number or name/ date?
Modded BIOS might help you out here, problems like that are usually due to a outdated intel o-rom.Quote:
