Asus P5N32-SLI Deluxe

[BiFfMaN]

Sorry to bring up a dead subject about this mobo....but the 0212v BIOS seems to run just fine for the system i built for a friend with the Intel Pentium D 920 Presler..stable and loaded up windows XP just fine..just posted this because i have seen alot of posts about others with this same problem.

BIOS 2020 will not post with the new duel cores(920,930,940,950)....you need to use a older 775 chip just to load the new bios...asus really dropped the ball on this one IMO.

This only confirms my assumption. All 800fsb preslers seam to work, but 1066fsb cpus do not...

Anandtech had this mobo checked for maximum fsb frequency and he could only reach 261mhz, which is not enough for 1066fsb (=266mhz) cpus. Maybe that is why i can sometimes boot and sometimes not (but alway unstable no matter what).

I will check this week if i can get into bios, quickly change fsb to 800 (underclock), save and then watch what happens afterwards...
