just tried flashing to 1904 and am getting "image outdated" it's not letting me flash to it from bios 2001

same happened to me exactly , Im thinking maybe the secondary bios is the way to go if your using a earlier bios version , Im using 1405 on my secondary , and been using 2001 on my main , so far so good

I get the exact same error message when trying to flash from 2001 to 1904. Great suggestions "the_real_7" I will try flashing my secondary bios tonight from 1485 to 1904 and give it a test.

I believe 1904 is the finalized version of the 1850 Beta. I think we'll see this also for the P67 series.
I also think 1904 lack the 22nm support.

I agree, 2001 is also a bit more stable for me then 1850 was. One of my 2600k's would not for the life of me get LinX stable at 5000Mhz but last night it passed with bios 2001.

same exact thing for me , my three our prime where always stable but linx was a hit or miss at 20 times , yesterday with same exact settings clear it each time no problems same for prime , with no increase in vcore or setting changes . . . today i tried again at work using my laptop with teamviwer and asus rog just in case of a lockup . no lock up ever occurred , i think tomorrow im raise the multi a bit , and see how much v core itll take me to ride 5.0 again , so far at at 4.8 load im using 1.450 not a golden child but surely a average good 2600k . .

Sorry guys i have a problem. How do I flashed the previous bios. I flash 2001 and I can't return to the previous, possibly 1904. I get the message "outdated". Sorry for my bad english.

P.S. I found a solution to the problem

Uou all tempting me to switch to bios 2001. Im currently running 1850 but i have hard time running over 5ghz.

[l0ud_sil3nc3]

I have not tried 1904, but 2001 is good to go

Guys last night I got error code 00 on the debug and the board totally failed to boot. It had booed first time everytime with my current settings for over a month and was totally stable. First time I have ever seen this. I am on Bios 1904. I cleared the bios, tried the secondary bios chip etc etc etc. Nothing improved the situation. After about 20 attempts I press power on again and it suddenly started working again and again completely stable. I shut it down this morning and went back to it now and 00 code again. Anyone experienced this ?? any ideas whats causing it or how to fix it???

[bro20000]

Think it has something to do with mem if pushed to hard! Has it in past 00 code when pushing mem!

[donmarkoni]

Got post code 00 every time I pushed BCLK too far.

[Timoleros]

I wish that there is not problem with your cpu...
But I got post code 00 when my cpu died

[badatgames18]

same here 00 was a dead 2600k for me.. wouldn't boot on spare ud3p

[Martin.v.r]

don't worry Martin.

i killed mine on 1850 and that was because i put to much voltages into it on improper cooling

2001 is fine for me

[Martin.v.r]

ok,ty

[pazza316]

Guys I googled it and found several others with my problem. In my case I disabled the LN2 switch as many it seems have done and it solved teh problem straight away. Every boot since 100% fine.

It seems the LN2 option causes alot of problems with this type of thing so god knows why the board comes with it enabled.

[Martin.v.r]

start-up of motherboards
blck oc? my motherboard does double start, when I do OC with blck, it has it made with all bios, some who know or know of the error

[MonsterDK]

Is the "GO" button really a good thing to use for boosting to a higher OC temperariliy?

Also how does it work exactly. The manual says to press it while in OS. Does this mean the boosted OC is instantly effective and really safe to use for when higher OC is needed?

thanks

Hi. I've wrote on asus forums about the debug code 00 error some time ago:

Also happened to me. Seems like LN2 switch is the key...
