**Official DFI LanParty UT P35-T2R Review/Overclock/Guide Thread**

[Brother Esau]

Look thanks for all your help is gladly appreciated and I know I'm very new to this things and I'm yet to learn... for now all I want is to get pass this C1 error and to load windows for the first time. Like I said I would like to use the Corsair memory and someone said that all I needed to do is incrase the voltage in the bios as they run on 2.1, I don't wanna mess with any timing or anything at all for now... Thanks!

I'm just busting you're chops dude but you really picked a very difficult board to learn on!

I'm sorry if I hurt you're feelings not trying to make you look or feel stupid just know what you have before Buying it is all.

C1 ...did you clear c'mos?

[Brother Esau]

The Dominators should boot at default settings. I have had no issues with the sets I have tried.

Campbell, thanks for the kind words regarding the article.

Very deserving kind words John exceptiionally well written and I shudder to think of the Time Total you put into this as we have talked before when you first showed me Voltage Measurement Points on the Board

@Oskar Wu.....give this man a Job!

[n00bstorm]

No warrys man I know what I got myself into just wanna see windows on that computer thats all... I changed to the Corsairs memory and cleared the CMOS and try'd again always C1 like before.. So I hold down the DELETE and i was able to get in the bios again.

Where is the options to " raise the Northbridge and VTT voltages one notch and set memory voltage to 2.2 " ?

If i was to try to continue out of the bios I always get stuck here

[n00bstorm]

Ok you want me to set each one of those to the one on picture or? or DRAM on 2.2V right? and what about the rest? Dont touch them or?

[n00bstorm]

And by the way I cant seem to find those settings anywhere I look'd around but cant find them..



Where to from here? Thanks!

[Brother Esau]

Do you're self a Favor and make Praz's GTL Reference Voltage Scale you're Desktop Background

[n00bstorm]

If I get to the desktop I sure would...!

[Brother Esau]

And by the way I cant seem to find those settings anywhere I look'd around but cant find them..



Where to from here? Thanks!

I already told you ___________G0.>>>>...TO....GENIE BIOS

[Praz]

Ok, from the screen in the pic you posted go to "Genie BIOS Setting". You will then be in the screen posted below. Select "Voltage Setting" and you will have access to the screens I posted above. Whatever the Northbridge and CPU VTT settings are raise them one setting.

[n00bstorm]

can you just tell me what should I set each one of them to? I just found them! Should I change the DRAM to 2.190V? Thanks for all your help guys!

[n00bstorm]

I started to install windows but I'm not sure if I was to restart the computer if it will start right up or ill still need to mess with the voltages. I'm very thankful for all your help guys! Thanks!

[Brother Esau]

I STRONGLY Urge you to Read this thread about 3-4 times

[n00bstorm]

As for all those voltages and stuff I have only changed the DRAM from 1.9 to 2.19 and nothing else! I don't wanna mess with the rest just yet... I just wanna get windows started for the first time thats all! Thanks!

By the way Esau I'm coming to you for the help with overclocking that Q6600 from 2.4 to something over 3? But that's yet to come... hope you wont mind? =)))

[ridikolous]

overclocking is pretty easy on this board noobstorm... just take time and patient.

[n00bstorm]

I have no idea how its done yet but ill take my time on this... I just started to install windows on the HD and see what is going to happend after its done! And I hope it boots right up and I dont need to hold the DEL key down in order to boot the computer this time! Thanks!

Perhaps you might reconsider that Bios Chip before they are gone? Instant system recovery from non boot board with corrupt c'mos and very easy to remove and replace!

[Brother Esau]

Out of curiousity what Bios do you have installed? If its 8/10/07 Shipping Bios I suggest you Flash to 9/13/07 Official

[n00bstorm]

As soon as I get windows booted ill install the bios you told me, by the way where can I download those bios from?

http://us.dfi.com.tw/Support/Downloa...FLAG=A&SITE=US
If thats the right place which one from all of them?

And thats how to install them right?

Select the First option on the page "DIAMOND FLASH IMAGE" and dowload to desktop and Extract to Fresh Formatted Floppy Disk......

When Flashing the Bios Please Clear Cmos via Jumper pin prior to Flashing Bios!

Boot up after clearing Cmos press F1 to Continue and it will automatically Boot from Floppy Drive have DFI 9/13/07 Bios in Floppy drive just wait for it to finish Flashing (it takes a while) be patient! Just let it do its thing and when its finished it will ask you to remove Floppy Disk and Press F1 to reset DO NOT PRESS F1........just manually Power Down from the Power Button..

Unplug PSU power cord from Back of power Supply
Wait 5 minutes Open case and move cmos jumper to clear "Do Not Remove Battery"!

Depress Power Button for 2 minutes to drain remaining Juice from Motherboard Capacitors and leave Jumper in clear position for 10 minutes.

After 10 Minutes...Replace cmos Jumper to Normal Position
Power up / Press Delete to get into Bios//// Load Optimized Defaults /// Save/Exit////// You're Done!

Wear a Anti Static Wrist Band to avoid "E.S.D"= (Electro. Static. Discharge)

Try if you can when opening case if you can avoid it don't do it on Carpet!

[n00bstorm]

Thank you very much Esau ill let you know how it went!

[Brother Esau]

Thank you very much Esau ill let you know how it went!

[n00bstorm]

I try to install it on a old ATA 20GB hard drive I had but something went wrong... So right now I'm installing it on one of my 500GB hard drives Just got done with formating it and installing windows its now time for the settings and all that stuff... by the way it said something about the battery not passing windows logo or something like this? Whats with that? Did not understand it...

You may have a bad cmos Battery other than that thats the only Batter in the system! Bad Cmos Battery will create allot of problems Take one from another Motherboard or go to Radio shack and ask for a 3.3v Cmos Battery.

[Brother Esau]

[QUOTE=breakfromyou;2524131]So...are there any beta BIOS' worth checking out? I'm on 8/10, and i CONSTANTLY get that C1 error on reboot. Takes me about 5 minutes to reset the BIOS, then bam, 10 minutes later right back there again.

See what 8/10/2007 Shipping Bios does to allot of people C1 ABOVE
