Is that 1204 that you want to downgrade from or did you upgrade to 1305?

I went for 1305, thought they might fix some mem problems I was having, but it didn't they became even worst... And now I'm stuck at "Image outdated" problem I'm a bit sad with ASUS, I might should have sticked with giga...

if u read the thread from sin0822 about the giga´s i think u will not be too bad with the asus.. the have also problems to bring out a good bios for p67 chipset.. i know the "flash back problem" but overall the asus is more stable @all i think

As mentioned earlier in the thread, page 20, it can be possible to rollback.

Let me know if you want to risk it.


EDIT: Looks like the new B3 stepping boards will be available shortly.

As a precaution please do not try to downgrade from the B3 (Rev 3.0) boards using a B2 stepping BIOS (pre 1305) until (in)compatibility can be ascertained.

You've been warned.

Okay, as stated a few pages back you'll need a modified older BIOS. I have made a modded 0804 for you and have tested it on my own system. I'll send a link through PM.

This is just for the EVO. If somethings not clear or you can think of a better way of explaining let me know.

1. If you haven't already, download BUPDATER version 1.22, make something to boot real DOS and make sure you have backed up your BIOS.

2. Enter BIOS, select F5 and load optimized settings. Save and exit F10. If you want to be ultra cautious you could check stability, in particular RAM using optimized defaults.

2. Reboot to real DOS and run "BUPDATER /pc /g".

3. Select 0804EV2.ROM and yes to flash. Note that if you select and read a valid ROM image and decide not to go ahead the /pc switch seems to do something anyway and you will probably need to go into the EFI BIOS again and save your settings. Seems like a bug in BUPDATER for it to do that. It may post with "press F1 to enter setup" after detecting improper BIOS settings however if you have "ignore F1" set in the BIOS then it will try to boot with the improper settings so make sure you hit the delete key and get into the BIOS setup before trying to run your OS regardless and save your BIOS settings after checking to be safe.

4. Once you have successfully flashed the modded 0804 image 0804EV2.ROM you can go into the BIOS setup and flash any of the other BIOS images up to 1305 using EzFlash. If you want to use 0804 you can flash over the modded one with the original 0804 to keep things straight if you wish.

0804EV2.ROM will only work for images upto and including hardware version 2. If some time later Asus does another hardware version increment then a newer modified 0804 image would have to be made.

EDIT: Looks like the new B3 stepping boards will be available shortly.

As a precaution please do not try to downgrade from the B3 (Rev 3.0) boards using a B2 stepping BIOS (pre 1305) until (in)compatibility can be ascertained.
