Still testing........

great ! can be used normal or just touch ?

[stasio]

It's modded BIOS Z68X-UD7-B3 - F6c with Hex Editor.
BIOS working in normal way and Touch BIOS working well.
Let me test a few more things....will post link soon with detail.
Edit:
pic above I already flashed in normal way with BIOS F6.

[stasio]

OK,here is modded BIOS Z68X-UD7-B3 - F6c with Hex Editor XVI32 (working only for P67A-UD7-B3 BIOS):

http://www.mediafire.com/?43stclpfddy5d1p

Before flashing,set in the BIOS "Optimized Defaults"and Disable "GSATA" and "eSATA" option.
Before flashing in Windows,with latest @BIOS 2.12,
Untick "Load CMOS Default"!
(Tick Clear DMI data Pool if you want that CPU-Z show Z68X-UD7-B3)
After restart,BIOS will "hang" on BIOS Screen for about 2-3 min.
"OROM UI and Banner"should be Disabled with latest Touch BIOS
in the Windows.Also Disable anything what you didn't use.
Restart and after should be OK.
Flash with latest "normal" BIOS F6 (Main and Backup).
Later on,I'll make modded BIOS,for flash back to P67A-UD7-B3 BIOS.

thanks stasio but it works as a program inside windows like ET6 ? or its another interface for a touch LCD or whatever

sorry my ignorance

Yes,is working inside the Windows,as ET6.
Download and install as usuall.
Not working with P67 BIOS....yet.
Edit:
as mentioned above....still testing all small details.

Still testing........

does it crash when you set overclock in realtime ?

[stasio]

does it crash when you set overclock in realtime ?

It's not in realtime....every setting should restart.

So basically with the modded Z68X-UD7-B3 bios on P67 board you can use all future Z68 normal bioses?
I gotta try this.

EDIT: First start with optimized defaults OK, some minor bios options missing but works. Set my 24/7 bios settings, boot to windows and most of the bios options, almost all bios options are missing. Basically can't do/set anything. Going back to normal P67 bios. Will wait for proper P67 support, I hope...

The flash worked fine, no hangups on first reboot. New TouchBios looks nice, Thanks for the hard work Stasio.

For those who didnt like bios f4, you wont like this bios either. It has 10 LLC options and again I cant get into windows to bench at 55-56x. Tried LLC 1-10 again and for me, it is not as good as F3H.

But for those who had good results with F4, this should be nice to play with.

[Falkentyne]

(yes I know, wrong thread, but with all the fun people in there, I thought I'd ask why I'm able to resume from S3 sleep with PLL overvoltage ENABLED (on F3g...on F5, it just boot loops and reposts to BIOS...)

[OC Nub]

Boot from bios 107.9bclk on new bios, vcore is kinda high. Will give it more time and see how it does.

Maybe clear CMOS after the flash, with power supply off and board drained of power for a minute or two with power on button? Then load optimized once you reboot back to BIOS (Waiting 1-2 minutes to get there )

No problems here, even with a B2 board, but I did not use Stasio's BIOS though.

[sin0822]

lol so you got Touch BIOS on your UD7 B2?

[Lsdmeasap]

Hehehe, yes

I'm sure they will release soon for P67 anyway, haven't heard when though?

[Dumo]

Anyone with touch bios for UD7-B3?

Thanks

I got most of BIOS function with Touch BIOS (cleared CMOS and drained power).

[Lsdmeasap]

Ya, no BIOS or Touch BIOS issues here, all seems to work just fine. So if you are having issues be sure to fully clear your CMOS then once done load optimized and reboot, flashing the backup to Z68 may help as well but it worked fine for me even before doing that.

[nijel]

You guys are right... Those P->Z->P bios flashings are really weird. Now I'm back on P67 F4 bios and CPU-Z 1.57.1 still shows my board as Z68X-UD7-B3 and reads VTT as Vcore... Clear CMOS didn't help.
Gonna see if removing CMOS battery for the night will help.

[Falkentyne]

Reflash with FlashSPI, and do a 30 second clear cmos after the flash is complete (power off, unplug PSU, press case button while unplugged, then short the clear cmos jumpers for 30 seconds).

This will fix that completely.

[OC Nub]

Anyone with touch bios for UD7-B3?

Thanks

Trying it now on UD7 B3 Dumo, it works fine. I am still using bios to oc, just wanted to give it a try.

[Dumo]

See the end of page 94 Dumo

Thanks Lsd

@OC..Did you see any diff. in 3Ds? Seems like cpu scale up better

[Lsdmeasap]

Anytime man, I thought maybe you missed it
