Id, there is something wrong with this bios. I just flashed to 2205, immediately after reboot, when I entered windows, it said: "Found new PCI-Device" - I was like "wtf?". I took me a while before i recognized it was one setting in bios that wouldn't be saved; more exactly "Disable onboard sound device". This is freakin' irritating, since I have X-Fi and don't want to use the onboard, it keeps popping up on every reboot. I haven't had any problems with anything else though, but this problem is extremely enoying.2205 is the worst bios ever for me
EIST does not work unless you turn C1E on too, multis screw around on my E6600, disabling onboard devices doesnt work, windows is telling me it's finding new devices.. 2103 f*cked up my rig, i have no idea how but it's unstable as f**k now, even after flashing back (too coincidental to NOT be 2103, after i just flashed to it 10 minutes earlier) and now 2205 is just SH*T.
WTF
I'm forced to just "disable" the yellow "?"(PCI-Device) in Device manager to keep it from popping up on every reboot. It helps, but I hate to have yellow "?" in my Device manager.
I have tried to revert back to 2004 - but I haven't figured out how to do it. When I try to flash back with Asus Update Utility(even with "Bios downgradable" enabled), It says: Warning! Bios date is older etc etc. Please use ASUS DOS. And when I use the Asus Ez Flash utility, it says the same; "Bios is older than current version" - and program ends back to main menu.
I really would like to flash back with AFUDOS, in DOS mode; however here comes my problem: How can I flash with a bootable floppy when the bios file is too large to fit on a floppy? I mean, I made a bootable floppy disc and copied AFUDOS on it - but the bios file is over 1 mb large, so there's no space for it?
If anyone could explain it for me, I would appreciate it - and surely try to revert back to 2004.
Hope someone is able to help =)
