If both BIOS chips are using the same build and are corrupt and you cannot use BIOS flashback from UEFI, you will have to RMA the board.

[donmarkoni]

What about borrowing BIOS chip from another board?

Fair enough Sergio.

FYI the 3 series BIOS contain a new Management Engine Firmware 8.x update so if you try to roll back to a pre 3 series such as 2105 it might be possible that only the BIOS region is flashed while the ME region remains at 8.x. This is why I was asking about ME version in the BIOS setup. If it's screwed then it might show N/A.

By checking MSR 0xCE it might be possible to see if the problem were ME induced or BIOS side.

Note that Asus BIOS might have a quirk that if you disable turbo boost then it removes the multiplier setting from the setup screen. However in your case unless your using a backup that setting should be reset to enabled by the flashing.

Hope you get it sorted soon.

Thanks everyone for the help!

No matter what I tried the setting was gone from the bios.

I bought the board from mwave.com for 179.00, its a refurbished board. Ill save it for building the wife a PC, it runs fine stock.

I ordered a new board last night, should have it by the end of the week.

This P67A UD5 has been a good board, but it does not seem to clock as well as the M4E, I was able to run the 2550k at 5500mhz easy on the M4E at 1.54vcore, the UD5 takes well over 1.6v and doesnt usually finish the benchmark before crashing.

that is the best idea I think

[Sauron_Vie]

i have problems also with 3202 and have to go to 2105 then to 2302 i was lucky to do it but not OC nub im trying my best to help but seems that bios stays the same

hi buddy,

i got also problems with the 2302 (BSOD´s always with 0x124). i used the the option "Copy current bios to another flash" within the flashback menu, because i had the 2001 @ Bios 1. It worked without problems. Can´t use OC Nub this option as well ?

cheers

[nascasho]

I have a dumb question, I probably overlooked it. But looking if there's a way to set the system to shutdown if it detects under a certain rpm for cpu?

I recently had my pump fail and want to prevent that experience in the future. I hooked up the 355 to the left most cpu fan header on the top right of the socket, board shows the rpm correctly as it reads ~4500rpm. Just didn't see an option for fan failure.

Any ideas?

I remember that I've seen it long time ago... Found it! owikh84 had BCLK stuck at 100MHz but I didn't see a clear solution, or maybe I wasn't looking carefuly. You can PM him to ask.

hello guys, it has been like 6 months from when i last played with my oc settings. What bother me now is that my 95% stable oc suddenly turn out to be non-stable? i passed 6 hours prime 95 Blend custom with 90% ram, and 1344/1792 FFT both 30 min tests.

What is the issue now? my pc randomly double boot on cold boot, and either bootup into windows after the double boot, or just freez on windows logo. I'm using the 1850 BIOS, which at the time was good for most of the users, and it was working fine for me.

Here are my settings.


VCCSA Voltage: Auto
VCCIO Voltage: 1.1
CPU PLL Voltage: 1.7
Auto PLL Overvoltage: Enabled
PCH Voltage: Auto
VRM Switching frequency: 350
Vcore PWM/Duty Control: Extreme
Vcore Phase Control: Extreme
Vcore Over-current protection : 140%
CPU Multi - 50 by all cores
CPU BCLK: 100
CPU voltage/vcore: 1.435v
DDR Voltage: stock volts 1.5
CPU Spread Spectrum: Enabled
LLC: Ultra High

So do you guys recommend some newer (more stable BIOS) and what settings could i change? thanks!

[Martin.v.r]

I use 1409/3202
you have 2 bios chip on your motherboard

Since you posted that 3202 2 of use went with bios corrupted Martin i dont think aint something to recommend

[psyside]

There is no 3202 BIOS at Asus page?

[andressergio]

no it was posted here and some of use tried and ended borking our bios chips

[l0ud_sil3nc3]

I posted a link from KPC, but there seems to be quite a few negative reports of using this bios so be warned.

[psyside]

Thanks for the answers guys.

So i'm left with what BIOS version from the recent ones? has anyone from you guys tested oc stability with latest version/s? how does it compare to 1850? i think it must be better cause is alot newer and not beta?

so sorry about that sergio, really weird that the settings aren't sticking in the bios but you can change them in windows.

maybe time for RMA?
