G28 bios
improved Memory compatibility
Also solved solved Patriot DDR3 1866MHz hang-up on memory sizing issue.
G28 still wont boot my Corsair TW3X4G1800C8DF. G26 at least boots em.
huh?
How about G27?
So you cant even get the board to boot with G28? very weird... all that was changed was to ignore XMP afaik... so how could that make things worse? :confused:
Will give it a try when my QX9650 arrives :)
Thanks.
Big thank to you Peter:up:
G27 make my cellshock 1800 can't boot more than 800 Mhz with 54 code :(
This G28 make it run 880 Mhz CL6 rock stable. :D
You did the great job man.:clap: But I will wait for >1000 Mhz Bios next time.:p:
Thank you very much again.:up:
Will post my findings with OCZ 2moro after trying :)
thanks guys! :toast:
could you try again ric?
maybe it was a bad flash?
did you load optimized defaults after flashing the BIOS and then configured it all again?
I cant boot G27 or G28. Just error 54 and continual beeping. There is no option to enter the BIOS to load defaults.
G26 is ok though
what happens if you clear cmos?
Can you try this?
shut down the board, turn off the psu, remove both BIOS chips (actually the left is enough, thats the one you usually boot from), wait for a few minutes and then put it back in, turn on the psu, turn on the board and boot up.
why does G26 work and G27 and G27 dont?
that doesnt make any sense... hmmmmm
Clearing the CMOS doesnt have any effect.
Removing the reinserting the BIOS chip in the left socket doesnt have any effect. It still boots with error 54 and continual beeping.
I believe the modules do have an XMP profile on them.
When it successfully boots with G26, the memory settings which are chosen are 8-8-8-24 @1.801V
Have you tried to put your rams into the WHITE DDR slots?...... :)
can you try to flash the BIOS again?
maybe it was a bad flash? did you flash at unstable speeds maybe?
good to see you around george! :toast:
I am having a really nice time with G28. I am positively loving the new options in it. It definitely made my CPU 4.25ghz Mem 2000mhz overclock Superpi 32M stable.
Thanks!
Edit: Somehow now I am unstable.
good to hear! what mem are you using again?
From what i've experienced it's always better to use the slots father from the socket.
@Furious: Which mem? Can you please share your settings?
hmmmmm rich, could you do me a favour and post a memory SPD dump here?
just download spdtool from www.techpowerup.com/spdtool and then read the spd and safe it, create a zip with it and post it here.
You could flash the CellShock SPD to your Corsair sticks... or you could use Typhoon SPD burner to edit the Corsair SPD and remove the XMP profile, which i suspect is causing the problem.
still, its very weird that the memory works with G26 and does NOT work with G27 and G28... maybe there was something else changed that affects this that im not aware of hmmmm
Oh and could you post a detailled list of your system config?
thanks!
Saaya, i ahve been trying to use this G28 BIOS wih my Cellshock....but not evenstable at 400 FSB which i was able to do with G27...Any advice..have tried to leave settings on AUTO and playing with control, clock and command skew as it is called in this BIOS as oppesed to dll in the G27 bios..
Any help or advice?? Getting rather tired of this whole mobo memory problems. It runs fine for a few minuted them BOOM....................i get BSOD forno apparent, I know it is to do with memory. I keep hearing how these new Cellshock modules should go up to 450 fsb on dualcore procs BUT i can hardly get the damn thing running at 400 on a quadcore...............why is this. Don't you guys test these modules on quadcore procs also....
Most people on this particular thread run dual core and get pretty high FSB...what about quad cores and cellshocks and this Blackops mobo????
the memory modules dont run with an FSB... memory speed and fsb speed are related depending on what memory divider you use, but memory doesnt run up to a certain fsb, it runs up to a certain memory speed.
to reach ddr3 1800 you need 450fsb.
to reach ddr3 2000 you need 500fsb.
dualcore cpus can reach a higher fsb than quadcores, dualcore 45nm chips can go up to 500+ while quadcores are limited to 450+
please post a list of what you set the memory and cpu to.
what cpu multiplier, fsb, memory divider, memory timings, dll adjustments, what cpu voltage, vtt voltage, gtl settings, vdimm voltage and nb voltage.
does the system run stable at stock speed with everything at auto?
just load optimized defaults and lt me know if the system is stable at that speed or not.
Just received my replacement board and flashed it to G28..
At stock settings the QX9770 is running at 2402 with the multiplier set at 6, is this right surely it should pick up the correct settings by default?
Ok I got my chance finally. This BIOS improved usage of OCZ-2000 CL9 kit specially with my E8400. With QX9770 I am not sure why but is far from stable even @ just 1600 CL7, will just restart while opening few folders or loading cpuz. :rolleyes:
SETUP:
E8400 Q748
BlackOps - G28
OCZ 2GB Plat 16000 CL9
GB 9600GT TurboForce
Corsair TX750
Volts set in BIOS:
vCORE: 1.3125v
vNB: 1.5v
vDIMM: 1.8v
NOTE: I was checking how Vantage looks and then was lazy to install XP again :shrug:
Pi @ 1600 [more in MEMSET and it crashes :p:]

Everest @ 1800 (Pi32M is in works as stability is an issue past 1600)

1. make sure that you select NATIVE MODE at the EIST FUNCTION under CPU Feature in QUANTUM BIOS
2. You'll need to go into the OS control panel then select the POWER OPTIONS, now select HIGH PERFORMANCE.
That should get you your correct cpu speeds without the throttling going on...:up:
