ASUS P5W DH - Problems + Fixes Thread

[sesdave]

you can use 1901, newest and the most stable, but you will need to update, just dont forget to clear the battery and jumper.

Maybe the beta bios was good and only was need is a cmos clearing, but i wont touch the beta ever again.

personally I would recommend 1707 - its hard to find any bad post about it and subsequenet BIOS dont seem to have any significant changes. Still horses for courses - what works best for me may not be best for you!.
I am suprised you managed to reflash to lower BIOS without renaming BIOS to P5WDH.ROM. You just cant trust anything these days! On another note - you could try unistalling both the DVD drives in the Device Manager then once both are removed scan for new Hardware. It should redect the drives. Might solve your pronlem - might not but worth a try. It not a physical problem so it has to be windows.
