Revert back to 1001 official, 0x124 is less often with same settings. I am convinced that i have to go back to 0803, because 0902 introduced latest microcode and so 0x124 programmable errors.

I'm also selling my mobo, it has been 3,5 years now that i have it. I'm gonna try a other brand i think.
I wanted to ask if the rampage formula got shipped in a antistatic bag or not. I can't find the antistatic bag so i think that the mobo never had 1 when i buyed it
Could someone please confirm it?
Yes was only plastic cage cover it.

@SoLoR
What's new in BIOS 1002b-R4 ?
There's a new Intel RST driver and a new Intel Chipset Software installation Utility available that fixes the issues that I had with the previous versions.

Just wanted to post to say how awesome this motheboard is. I'm still using it for 3,5 years and never failed, just had to replace battery once and lost all my settings xD
I'm changing platform soon and will try other brand, but this x48 is the bomb .
BTW, never updated the BIOS, never had issues so didn't want to mess with that

Intel RST driver 10.8.0.1003 and INF Update Utility 9.2.3.1022.
Uninstall the old Intel RST driver. Update the INF Update Utility to version 9.2.3.1022 with the -OVERALL command. Install the Intel RST driver version 10.8.0.1003.
Cheers A-Grey, what problems did they solve??
And SoLoR i take it BIOS R4 has an updated rapid storage ROM?

Guys, I have this kind of problem:
After installation of Solor's BIOS software 1002b-R3 and R4, my BIOS stops recognizing DVD-drive. But in Windows I see my optical drive and it works normally. Reverting back to 1002b-R2 changes situation back to normal. I shuffled between those three versions twice to be sure. Request your feedback on this one.
I've been playing around with my OC again recently, working on tweaking things with LLC off in the hopes of getting rid of the random 0x124 BSODs... Anyhow my question is this: What the heck is up with this board? I'll run LinX and everything will pass, but I can come back the next day and run it on the exact same settings and it will fail on the first or second pass, then the next day it passes again.... I'm not really sure whats going on here. I ran several passes of memtest with no errors so I don't think its related to that. I'm seeing the same issues at 3.2 GHz so I don't think its the CPU being pushed to the edges of its capability, and 400FSB should be no where near a wall - I mean, this board supposedly supports 1600FSB. RAM is 1:1 @ DDR2-800 4-4-4-12. CPU temps @ 3.6 [9x400] are 70C max in LinX, @3.2 [8x400] they are 55C so I don't think temps are causing the problems either (CPU and push/pull washermod TRUE both lapped... so I'm out pretty much out of ways to improve the cooling except gong to water... and if I could afford that, I could afford a new sandy bridge cpu/mobo/ram). Running BIOS 0902 still.
If it doesn't appear to be a CPU or RAM problem, it would have to be something mobo related, right? Any thoughts? I haven't had any crashes playing games since this latest round of tweaks, just LinX weirdness.

Guys, do you have any ideas?
Unfortunately IDE dvd-drive, it's connected to the MB via blue IDE connector. I read few posts ago you've had answered to someone that it's possible new Intel option rom doesn't support sil3132 controller. Am I correct?
Copy that. So I should stick to 1002-b2 rather then trying newest ones?
Little offtopic. I assume new optical drives use sata connections. If I decide to change my dvd-drive (to be able to use newest bios in pursuit of the stability), which one you suggest to head for? Right now I'm considering use a ide-sata adapter.
