**Official ABIT IP-35 Pro Review/Overclock/Guide Thread**

[Pntgrd]

Has anybody else had one of the network adapters die on them?. Out of nowhere last night, one of mine just quit. Windows says it is working correctly but cannot see a network. My router show no connection. Hooked the cable to the second adapter and it did work. But the first one is dead.

I'm getting some annoying lock-ups while priming on this board. It primed for around 3 hours then just hard-locked right out of the blue. I dunno if this is normal on these boards, but on my old 975x board prime just failed if the overclock was unstable.

Any tips?

[SHAIDO7]

well to be sure i have good temps with the white rubber pieces on but i know the temps could be better without those retarded pads. i say try it with the pads if the temps arent low enough for you try without the pads my temps are pwm 39c at 3.8 gigahertz overclock

You running uguru and cpuz 1.41 at the same time? If so, thats why.

I was running uGuru, but I can't remember if I was running CPU-Z. Why, is this a known issue? I mean it was stable for 3 hours. I didn't touch anything when it happened.

[maxwedge]

Yes its a known issue but usually happens with in the 1st minute of having both programs open. It's only with cpuz 1.41....older versions are ok. You can edit the config file for v1.41 to stop the problem...see 1st link.

If you didn't have them both open at the same time I'd be looking at memory voltage or vMCH maybe. Hard to say. Run memtest86+ test#5 and see if it errors.

Hello.
I have next problem. I want set FanEQ control. I tried diferent setings with CPU FanEQ Control, but everything is same-CPU cooler has maximum rpm:-( I tried Sys FanEQ control, but here is same problem-regulation doesnt work:-(


Where is the problem? I have BIOS 14...

THX.

I actually am having the same problem. I just upgraded to BIOS 14 from 11. All the fans operate at full speed even though I have the settings the same as they were in BIOS 11 when everything worked just fine.

I'm using the current uGuru. Should I reinstall?

Turn off psu for a few secs and the fans will operate again @ the set speeds.

I run into a weird issue where if I use multiplier of 8 and the computer goes to sleep, when I touch the keyboard, the system seems to power up but nothing displays on the monitor. I have the Num Lock key on but the light is not on either. It happens at any speed. This doesn't happen if I use multiplier of 9. Have you guys seen this? I don't know if this makes a difference but I use vista ultimate and the board is version 1.10.

[steelzor]

Is 70 C on the PWM normal for this? It blows my mind.

Going to do the Heatpipe mod later today

Edit: Shame. It seems my motherboard can hit 475 MHz on FSB with my RAM and MB ok. CPU is a G0 Q6600 dies about 3.4. Can do a 2 hour PrimeStressTest on 3.4 but dies above it. Sigh!

Edit2: Massive VDROOP was a problem. didnt realise. Ive upped the VCORE and now its more stable.

There's something weird going on with my system. It just hard-locks out of nowhere. Today I wasn't even running prime, I was watching a video on google video and it just froze completely. It's so weird when prime and memtest seems to be perfectly stable - except when prime decides to hard-lock as well. I've clocked down a bit to see, but this is definitely weird.

i notice your using a creative x sound card & 4 gigs of ram, this where u probs could be, loads have had simaler probs, creative released new drivers to fix this, maybe be worth ago, if u think everything else alright
Fixes:

* Resolves an issue for Windows Vista systems with 4 GB RAM
* Resolves loud speaker noise when restarting your computer
* Resolves an issue that causes OpenAL games not to respond

I've heard about that issue, but one of my dimms died, so I'm running 2GB now while I'm waiting for the new kit to arrive. I'm running some older drivers though, so I'll definitely give those a try. Thanks for the suggestion!

So I take it these lockups isn't a known issue then? I guess that's just typical for my luck to get a weird issue like this :P

U-guru doesn't work for me. Any suggestions? Bios 14

[Alik4041]

With the new PCI express 2.0 cards coming out, which aren't compatible with the 1.1 slot, I'm gonna have to sell this motherboard. Jeez, it hasn't even been 3 months.

[Dami3n]

Pci-e 2.0 is compatible with 1.1, no problem between p35 and new gpus.

Well, first and foremost, did you uninstall, reboot, then reinstall? (May not hurt to re-download it just to make sure your install isn't corrupt.)
If not, try it.

If so, uninstall, reboot, set BIOS defaults, and reinstall it again.

I haven't had any issues with uGuru myself, but these are the steps I'd try.

Good luck!

I've already done that thank's

Hope this helps. uguru v1.04 downloaded from the abit website does not work with the IP35 Pro rev 1.1 bios 14 I have. uguru v1.05 included on the CD that came with the motherboard does run although CPU temperature is about 15 degrees less than what the utility coretemp v0.95.4 shows.

[Captain Ned]

Agreed. I had the full-speed fan issue when I flashed to the 14 BIOS and a power-down of the PSU plus a CMOS reset with the PSU off fixed the problem in a jiffy. The back-panel CMOS switch is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Me too. Version I downloaded would keep crashing. My good friend Mr Internet suggested I use the CD version instead. That know it all bastard was right again.

I had another issue where my cpu fan always run at full speed. I tried to clear the cmos to see if that fixes the issue. Now when I look at the CPU VTT values there are only 2.0 and 2.3. Before I cleared the cmos, there was 2.0, 2.3, and 2.7. Does anyone know how I can get back the 2.7 value? Thanks.

Bump the vMCH up some and you'll see more vVVT options.

Thank you, thank you. That works

Guys, I can't find vmod photos for ip35 pro... Help me...
