HI all, I've had my X38-T2R for about a week now and I've had a very weird experience with it. First off I had trouble even getting the board to boot up at all, turns out the C1 error was at work and the only way to get the board to boot was to reset the bios then kill the main power from the psu. After that though I realized I was having the same problem as Dimek, no boot over 1.24v with this new E8400, which wasn't really a big deal since it will hit 4ghz @ 1.96v. At certain times I could get the board to boot with hihger volts by using the CPU special add thing but any tweaking of the main voltage got me an instant shutdown after rebooting. On top of that the board would make this wierd buzzing sound, like an alarmclock, sometimes upon rebooting but it did not fail to boot after making this sound.
I'm now using the original 11/28 bios and it's the most stable and reliable bios I've tried so far. No C1 errors, no voltage issues, no wierd noises, no trouble clocking my ram above 1100mhz, all in all I've not had one issue since I switched to this bios. I've tried all of the official bios and the top four betas. I don't know what they changed after this one but I tink they should start over using the first as a template.
