P5K Premium won't change FSB

[jamiee]

Just an update..... Looks like everything is working properly now.

The PC still won't cold boot after being overclocked, but I had the same issue when running a P5W DH Deluxe with early BIOS revisions. Hopefully Asus will get the P5K-P up in good standing order with a new BIOS revision soon.

Otherwise all BIOS settings are sticking nicely (currently @ 9 x 422FSB = 3.8GHz, 5:6) and 1.55v northbridge isn't causing any problems.


I believe PCI #2 on this board shares with the jmicron controller, so I'm thinking that was my problem.

Sometimes its just the little things.....


Thanks for the help guys

Well I'm back again.
Look's like changing the PCI slot may have not been the real issue.
I've flashed back to the latest 0204 BIOS using ez-flash and guess what, all my problems have come back

I'm going to try clearing the CMOS one more time ( I really don't enjoy having to remove the videocard to do this... curse you Asus!!), and if that doesn't work then I guess i'll be flashing back to 0102.

Well I cleared the CMOS and that seems to have worked.
Looks like clearing the CMOS after each BIOS flash is a must for the P5K Premium (maybe other P5K's as well).

Loading setup defaults in the BIOS after flashing doesn't seem to be enough on its own.
This was never an issue with any of my previous boards (I've had my fare share of Asus mobos over the years), but I'll just chalk this up as a learning experience

Cheers.
