    Modded TA790GX A3+ Bios X2/X3 @ X4 :D

    Well, i got a good X2 550 with capacity to run 4 cores ,but Ive tried to unlock the "extra" cores on TA790GX A3+ but it seems impossible
    so I asked for a friend of mine a great bios developer to make a magical bios for TA790GX A3+ and......
    He did

    i will show you exactly how you can do the same.
    the first ever step-by-step is how to get the modded bios
    grab this file here
    http://www.4shared.com/file/11588524.../78DAA616.html

    Set your system back to stock prior to flashing and after updating bios to the new one you just need to follow this steps ,under the CPU Tuning option
    HT link @ 1.6GHz
    ACC @ all cores
    Value(all cores) @ -2%



    you must set the HT link @ 1.6GHz, if you don't, you'll see unexpected results

    And its work of course




    you would like to try it at your own risk

    Congrats on the nice unlock, seems I am one of a small group that can't unlock theirs.

    You should have your friend mod a bios for the TA790GX XE

    PcCI2iminal: I would be so grateful if he could do a BIOS for the TA790GX XE, just like Tom128 asked.

    I also have the TA790GX XE and it unlocks my 550BE but I can't boot into windows. I can only boot into the BIOS.

    Ive tried too many bioses but without any luck
    -My new mobo has bios from Jan 09 so unlocked only activating ACC. All the rest settings default as I am still to understand this bios

    By the way, its a TA790G 128M so not the same that the one in this thread (sorry, didn't realise before)

    -what is this thing below ACC 'value all cores' for?

    cheers

    setting it to Auto means setting it to +2% on all cores

    values over +6% are recommended once higher voltages are used (1.5v CPU VID and higher)

    negative values should allow for lower operating voltages at stock

    different CPUs like different values, so you'll have to fiddle a bit, simply leaving it on Auto may not always be optimal

    well ,the modification is not guaranteed for all chips,you must be sure if your chip can handle the mod or no

    i have two X2 550 ,one of them is good for X4 and the other runs only two cores
