Wow great job Gigabyte! The new @bios won't let me flash my S3 with the S3 bios! I just switched to test the F10 DS3 bios again, updated the @bios and now it won't let me switch back to the S3 F8 bios. Says Wrong part number(award)! and stops. It used to give that warning put would give you the option to continue flashing.

In regards Revision 1.3, i assume it's an updated PCB version for the original Revision 1.0 PCB.

If you see the image it has the same orientation on the IDE connector, so we might also see Rev 2.3 etc.

Since we already have Rev 3.3 i don't think we'll see a Rev 3.33 will we?

:-)

**Richard Dower** · 03-20-2007, 04:55 AM

Man, why even bring out a Rev 1.3?...i'd assume they would just stop selling/making Rev 2.0/1.0 and just sell Rev 3.3?...unless a Rev 1.3 PCB was made and came out after the initial release of the DQ6 Rev 1.0, does anyone have this PCB?

**1heone** · 03-20-2007, 12:02 PM

So I set those 667 sticks to run at 533, Single channel mode, CPU not overclocked, still getting memtest errors. boosting volt to +1 or +2 doesn't help. WTF is going on with this board?!?

AMAZING!...Realtek have released yet ANOTHER driver, version 1.63...just four days after the last!

Realtek does that. They have been doing like weekly driver updates for years. I'm not sure what the deal is with that. Their audio drivers certainly suck though, nevertheless.

Suckyness is subjective and relative.

**swaaye** · 03-22-2007, 01:27 PM

lol. true. But if you expect Realtek's DS3D/EAX support to work right, prepare for disappointment.

DS3 rev1 F10

hey, that's what happened to my ds3 board as well. Although it still "works", there's sign of water on the socket, so I doubt I'd be able to rma

**LordShadow** · 03-25-2007, 02:17 AM

So when exactly are we getting new BIOSes? It must be well over 2 months since we've had anything new....

**Hutch** · 03-25-2007, 06:48 PM

Are there still issues with the DS3/S3's and D9? I'm about to get some D9's for my S3 Rev1 C1 but wanna make sure the issues have been fixed before doing so.

**Hutch** · 03-26-2007, 11:40 AM

K I'm gonna get some firestix. Price is too good ($163.99.) Finally replacing this absolute POS psu (Coolermaster 430W 19A 12v) My 12v rail drops below 11.6v under load!

F8 S3 bios has been the most stable for me. The F10 DS3 (same thing) gives me a load of problems. Failed OC = need to clear cmos.

My oc has been limited by my junk ram and psu, hopefully will be able to do 4ghz with some D9 and a better psu... I've got the CPU and cooling for it (L628 B2 E6400.)

**JumpyJim** · 03-26-2007, 04:44 PM

I recently updated to 4 x 1 GB GeiL 6400 DDR2 800MHz RAM and ditched my BFG 7900 GT for a sexy ATI X1950XT-X. Lovely jubbly.

However, I had to pop out and purchase an Intel Pro 1000 GT NIC to replace my onboard NIC - which has decided to remove itself from my BIOS. The option to Enable/Disable is gone - it does not mention LAN at all now.

Madness.

**Richard Dower** · 03-29-2007, 09:31 AM

Bingo...any new beta for the DQ6?

Hi Richard and hello everybody!
Looking your sign seems you have the latest beta bios for the DQ6 at the moment...
I would ask you to send it to me, but before I need to ask you what differences have you found and if it seems syable or not...
thanks a lot!

**riv** · 03-29-2007, 02:40 PM

ok, second posts on the board and first problem:
I clocked my E6600 to 3600mhz and I have only this problem: when I power on the pc, it starts normally but under Windows (Vista or XP is the same) only one core is working...after a simple reboot also the second core works.
Using lower cpu clock doesn't give this problem.
Higher vcore, and other system voltages, doesn't seem matter for my "cold boot handicap".
Any suggestions will be very apprecieted

thanks anybody

Beta bios for the DS3:

Dumb question guys. After switching over to f10 bios everthing was great no more cold boot issues. However, just ran cpu-z 1.39 and noticed that the command rate was 2T instead of my preferred 1T. Then i went back into the bios (control F1) and didn't find the command rate option anymore. How do you set it to 1T?
