ASUS P5B-Deluxe; Problems & Fixes

[Pepi93]

hey guys, please help..

I had bios 1212, flashed to 1226, now I cant OC my system the way I used to..

I get the popular Checksum Error, Overclock failed, press F1 to enter BIOS.

I know TomNbk said he just set the BIOS defaults and then reinserted his but this is not working for me....

does anyone know how to fix this issue?.I could revert back to an older version of BIOS..I can't use ASUS update it won't let me downgrade...I tried...

I don't have a floppy drive, and I'm not sure how that one guy used AFUDOS using a CD....if you can let me know that would be cool....

Update:

In the mean time I ripped my old floppy drive from my old PC and reverted back to BIOS 1212, so everything is good, but if someone can tell me how to deal with that Checksum Error with the newer BIOS versions, that would be great.

and oh yeah, I also did the clear RTC RAM (CLRTC) thing described in the manual but it didn't help.

Thanks guys.
