Asus M3A79-T Deluxe

**Dolk** · 09-28-2009, 08:17 PM

Hello, Dolk from OCF

I'm looking for anyone that has unlocked any of their cores using the new Unleashed mode with the 1203 BIOS.

If you have please share CPU with model number, and complete BIOS and System Configuration.

After using without problems for 1 year the BIOS 0703, I decided to try the new bios 1203.
Unfortuntately I have many conflicts with my Cellshock memory and I decided to go back to 0703.

The problem is that now, the EZ flash utility gets a message that the board is newer than the BIOS and it doesn't allow me to flash it!

Any ideas to force the Flash??

Below is using a Floppy Drive letter

Dont forget to use( /i )before the BIOSromname.

A:\ AFUDOS.EXE /i0803.rom /pbnc

This was helpful

In my case no.
Even if I use the Afudos command, I get the message that my board is newer than the bios 0703...

Afudos 2.07 is working fine: "afudos207.exe /i0703.rom" (without quotes)

I bought a Phenom II X2 550BE and unlocked it:

Only three cores are stable under Win 7 64 bit, OC later...

I tried both Afudos 2.07 and 2.36 with 2 different floppy disks and both of them won't do the job.
After I put the command in dos, it doesn't happen anything.The pc stops reading the disk and the only thing that I can do is restart, as I don't get any command prompt to try something else..

You can still flash an older rom image. I have done it with EZ flash. I went from 1103, back to 1003?? Even though it tells you that its an older one, you can still continue. At least I was able to.

**Tom128** · 10-14-2009, 06:04 AM

For mine I was able to go back BIOS by BIOS (had to go one by one, could not go back more than that in one flash) quite a ways but did reach a point that it would not let me go back any farther. I believe I was at bios 0903? Anyways, I wanted to try the mod bios 0030 for unlocking and had trouble getting back. I ended up doing some google searching and found a version of AFIDOS that let me flash back to whatever I wanted, but it was not the version downloaded from Asus. When I get back home I will see if I still have it and can put it online to download or email it if you can't find it.

You can go back until 1003.
But not at 703.It doen't allow u for older bios...

Looks like the 1303 BIOS is up.
ftp://ftp.asus.com.tw/pub/ASUS/mb/so...eluxe/1303.zip

Nothing very significant in the release notes. Just says support for more CPUs.

**brane01** · 10-18-2009, 01:35 AM

After flashing with 1303 bios, I had problems with restarting the PC, it just hanged.
No significant changes regarding to 1203.

Flashed back to 1203.

**Mechromancer** · 10-19-2009, 09:57 AM

The support list hasn't been updated yet, but I hope 1303 supports rev C3 CPUs! If it does we should all rejoice.

**Jaivan** · 10-19-2009, 10:58 PM

1303 is terrible can't overclock with it at all...

**RASTAVIPER** · 10-21-2009, 09:05 PM

0703 for me the best!!

Just tried update from 0903 to 1303
1303 is BAD , I used to run 230x16 stable , not with 1303
I can't overclock the HTT ! It can't boot up with the same setting

not even 205 x 16 , and the new BIOS broke the function of temperature reading of
K10Stat , CoreTemp , Everest
You can no longer able to read the CPU temp , all these software only show "0C" ( it works fine with 0903 )
for your core temp

I suggest AVOID getting 1303 , use the older version !!

**leoy** · 11-21-2009, 08:43 AM

I need a good bios, currently on 1303.

What changes in 1402? Did they fix the 13003 stability issues?

Im on the 1303, I switched about 1 week ago it, works fine for me and I actually got a 100mhz increase in benching frequency going form 0903. So in other words In 3dm06 I was able to run 4.4ghz before, once I went to the 1303 I ran it at 4.5ghz (this is ice cooled water though).

My rig is strictly benching and gaming so things like raid are not a concern for me. So I cant really comment on those issues.

**brane01** · 12-26-2009, 12:18 AM
