[xirokx]

I have an dfi nf4 sli dr mobo, which one of those applies to me?

Its my first DFI mobo so I would appreciate all bios help

thanks

[Mussels]

this entire thread is about the board you have xirokx.

Dont update unless you need to (or really want to), because a few people every update have problems. the majority are all good but its best to be safe.

[Napoleonic]

There are many bios mods and specific ram optimized bios but latest one from DFI should be OK (if you buy it)

[Mussels]

saying you wont buy because of a lack of patience is pretty sad, even if someone had the exact same hardware as you, that doesnt mean the same bios will work the same. You have to try them out and see what suits you.

Edit: obviously the latest is a good start. I dont have an opteron, but it works fine with my venice.

[p3tar]

patience isnt the problem, i have lots of patience.Time and frustration is,cause i know i aint just that lucky to hit the right BIOS in short time(i am not quite an optimist. ).Ill buy DFI,and i guess ill try latest stock BIOS first.(improving my character ).

[Mussels]

time and frustration not equal patience? it does in my book :P

Hey guys!
I have a little problem i hope you can help me with:
My RAM/bios seems to hate any other divider then 100/166/200.
I got an awesome X2 3800+ that runs 3ghz ad default vcore primestable but i can't get above 3070mhz because my RAM hits it's limit there on the 166 divider.
If i could use the 140 divider i could max out the CPU and prolly hit 3.2 GHZ.

I am using 2x 1024 GSkill ZX modules on a DFI Lanparty 4 ULTRA D.
Used bios: N4D704-2BTA (BigToe Mod)

Is it even possible to run a 140 divider with that RAM?

[Mussels]

It's down to the CPU, as to what dividers work. So you're screwed on that count. I have some nice DDR600 that needs no dividers so can i have your CPU?

Are you sure about that? It didn't work with y former CPU either and i think i read in the G.Skill GBZX thread that many ZX users have that problem.

Anyways - i'd never ever give that CPU up. It's fantastic.

Its dependant on the ram controller, dividers dont actually affect the ram at all, except to change its MHz, the dividers are part of the CPU's ram controller.

SO yeah, its pretty CPU dependant, DFI just add the options in anyway in case you get lucky.

Hi guys, Got my 'NewEgg Special' LanParty UT SLI Expert on the way now. Is it safe to say that NF4ED406 BIOS has been out long enough now that I should be ok to flash it if needed? I need to use the floppy method or is WinFlash ok to use? Who the heck still uses the floppy drive?!?! LOL TIA

[Magnj]

What would be the best bios for a DFI nf4 Ultra-D to go along with 2 x 1Gb G-Skill 2GBHX and an Opteron 165

Normally the ram should have Infineon BE-5 chips + Brainpower PCB.

Hi 2BIG4U

I am using the DFI Lanparty NF4 Ultra-D - so practically identical to your motherboard but with a few bits missing (!!) - which I recently bought on Ebay.

I updated to:
http://http://eu.dfi.com.tw/Support/Downloa...=A &SITE=UK
Listed under unidentified in the 1st post sticky (naming it NF4LD406.ZIP is a bit of a give away I think to the version number - no?).

This is a great BIOS. Loads of RAM strength tweaking options. Just flashed the BIOS under Windows (sweet no floppy !!) I got a Athlon 64 3000+ Venice running at 2.5Ghz with the FSB 1:1 @275Mhz (2x 512Mb good quality Kingston RAM sticks) @ CAS3.0/2T, with 3V. Super PI of 36 seconds... I built the board up for a guy at work... but I wanted to keep it myself!!

DFI are really great... They even sent out the Karajan audio module and the motherboard I/O plate out free of charge to me within a week of me emailing support!! Bloody E-bay sellers losing these important parts...

im using the latest stock bios and I just resurrected my system

I booted from CD and installed FreeNAS onto my USB stick. I took two 7200.9s and made them a RAID-0 array. I'm just testing before I buy 4x Samsung F4 2TB drives. But after I formatted and made those 2 drives a striped array in ZFS, I rebooted and now I get perma stuck at the BIOS splash screen.

Does this board freak out with ZFS or something? I decided to screw it and pull my USB stick and boot with 1 drive only, even if it kills the array (just testing data anyway). No go. Either drive = stuck at splash screen.

What the heck??? With the drives removed it boots into FreeNAS just fine.

[NEOAethyr]

Where's the bios'es I made for those boards .


I made bios'es for all those board's including the umm, what was it called, the venus.
Plus I made a diagram to show how to mod it into the pro chipset.
I made a bios for those pro modded board's too "I think", not sure anymore though...

The only thing I can remember is someone stealing stuff out of my bios..., I remember that...
Ohwells, that board is so old anyways, still...

[techtrancer]

So bad to read this

Your Mod Bios should Live!

939 & DFI was the best Socket & Bios ever
