I love seeing an active Abit thread, and even though I never owned an IP35-Pro I have owned five IP35-E boards and still have an IX38 Quad GT running strong.

so I just got back from vacation with 16GB of pictures and every time I look for a picture, my thumbnails loads very slowly (approx 1 min).
mucked around my BIOS, loaded Ace-a-Rue suggestion
Good: Thumbnails now loads uber-fast
Bad: It also cleared all my recent programs....FF3 bookmarks...forgot create a restore point
Good: Got tons more space on my HD
well after loading some my backups from my USB flash drive, I forgot to remove it during restart.
Now LED post is at 50, which says I have to clear CMOS.
So I did with the external RESET button, the inside RESET button, shorted the 3-pin, removed the battery for 5 secs....and I'm still stuck at 50 error...the only thing USB connected is my kb/mouse
any other suggestions?
advance thanks

Stock, or "ZZZ" versions from here?
Not sure if this is bug or not. I am running the Beta 18 bios.
Ive been using a WDC 250GB for my boot drive for the longest time now. and just got around to upgrading my HDDs in this rig from 2x250GB and 4x500GB (all WD drives) to 4x WD 1TB Tried using one of the 500GB drive for a boot drive. Here is my Problem.
Regardless of the OS i am using, i can install my OS to the drive. but the on the next power cycle the bios fails to boot from drive. i don't get the "BOOT DISK FAILURE" the bios just freezes and at the top screen i get 2 red lines and the Post LEDs read FF. i went back and used one of the 250GB WDC drive and it work just fine and will boot on the next power cycle. I tried using a WD 320GB and its fail on the next power cycle. i can still use any of the drives as storage drives just not as the boot drive. so any drive larger 250GB regardless of manufacture will not boot if use as the boot drive.
I tried looking thou near 300pages for something similar but couldn't find any thing.
Image of Bios screen trying to Boot from the WD3200AAKS, screen is the same with any drive larger then 250GB

Did you try both IDE and AHCI modes?
Yes, all 3 modes; IDE, Raid and, AHCI mode all have the same problem. Ive even used a PCI and PCIe sata controller and even still get the problem. even used and IDE 500GB and get the same problem.
Not sure if i can roll back to an earlier bios and see if the problem arises.

What changes are in the updated storage controller ROMs? I am currently using the stock 18 BIOS from the Abit website, but I'd be willing to try the 18.ZZZ with updated ROMs.
Thanks for your offer!
Honestly, I have no idea. Somebody reported a massive decrease of RAID rebuild time using 8.9.1.1002 ROM with a different motherboard, but that same ROM does not seem to function with RAID on the IP35 Pro. The latest fully working ROM is 8.5.0.1023, and that's what would be included, along with JMB363 ROM 1.07.14 and Phoenix AHCI Option ROM 01.06.70 (dated 08-13-2008).
Hey... people are still playing around with this board? Good on you guys. It's too bad Abit don't make Mobos anymore... they made some of the best boards for tweakers.
I even used the M629B18.ZZZ bios and still no luck. I went as far back as M629B14.bin, Ive even removed all other HDDs, DVD roms. I even tried USB HDD boot and even the esata and still nothing.
Sigh I really liked this Mobo, it has served me well for the last 2 years. well I guess this would be the best time for looking in to upgrading. funds permitting.
Normally I can figure things out and fix them on my own or with a bit research. but this has got me. with my luck its something stupid simple that I am forgetting.

Is there a way to check which BIOS version I am using? I'm kinda curious. Also curious it seems like the majority of people for the most part use BIOS v17, how come BIOS 15 are on the website for everything?
Also when I'm doing something if I need to shut down or if my comp messes up and shuts down and it gives me the Windows has shut down blah blah it will start as normal in 30seconds or push any key. (More or less) Has any of the BIOS updated so a USB keyboard can work for this? My old school one works for this but not my USB one.

MSI GTX 460 Twin Frozr II. 1TB Caviar Blue.
Corsair HX 620, CM 690, Win 7 Ultimate 64bit.
CPU-Z will tell you your BIOS information.
BIOS 15 does not exist, what are you talking about?
Unfortunately nobody has attempted to fix the glitch with USB keyboards not being able to enter BIOS (seems like that's only the case if AHCI is enabled). I think BIOS 16 and earlier are unaffected.
I have an IP35-E, and just installed a Q9550 in it, see cpu-z pics.
I'm posting here so others that still have the IP35-E will know that they can install a 9550. There was very sparse info on the web. Mild overclock to 3.2 (missing 8.5 mulitplier). I have some more tuning to do, ie memory and vid card, but I'm quite happy right now.
