    LOL! - ya'll sound like a bunch of limp wristed hayseeds...

    Both ASUS FLASH BIOS Utility (in 1901) and AFUDOS 221 did not work when trying to revert back from 1901.
    - error message said some silly nonsense like: "firmware older than motherboard...."

    AFUDOS 217 worked for me, reverting from 1901 back to 1707.
    - FTP: ftp://dlsvr02.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/f...FUDOS_v217.zip
    - also uploaded to: http://premium1.uploadit.org/bichi007//AFUDOS217.zip

    Also, had no issues nor improvements with 1901 with my sissy QX6700 OC of 3.0G
    - did notice ASUSFlash utility inside BIOS seemed to find flashdrive much quicker than previous versions.
    - going back to 1901, after testing "retro-bios...."

    No problems here with 1901 bios. With 1707 i got unstable in 400x9 and 2.20 vdimm. I needed 2,25 vdimm. With this bios and 2,20 vdimm is fully stable.

    I hope for advanced timmings in new releases.

    Bye !

    Yep, but thanks for info on setting up a safety net for next time, since I'm back to 1707. I'd never bothered with AFUDOS due to USB updates going so well. Now at least I know I can try again with the next released BIOS and worry less about trying it out...
    P5W DH Deluxe 1.02G
    Q9450 @ various settings like underclocked to 2.32Ghz until a good BIOS comes along...

    An update to my OC decrease:

    I tried a different PSU that I had here and I got the same results. So I went to Fry's and picked up an eVGA 680i board and just got it all hooked up. My overclocking is back! There is definitely something wrong with the board. I guess I will RMA it and sell it. I removed the covers off of both the heatsinks, anyone know if Asus will refuse the RMA because of this?

    Well, I guess it's time to put everything back inside the case. Thanks for all the help everyone.
