To the best of my knowledge only two were made - one got passed around various overclockers (I know where it is now, but I don't know that the owner wants that info made available to others) and the other kept at DFI.
As for the ISO, if the link on page 1 ever goes down I also hosted the ISO a while ago and it can be seen here https://app.box.com/s/x6k4ev2onby1e3ts6n29
Thank you a lot. I have checked and the motherboard appears to have the latest BIOS, at least according to the relevant list on that ISO. There is a beta BIOS there too, but that appears only to enable hot-swapping (of sata disks, probably) which i'm not interested in. I just wanted to see if there was a way to enable a .5 multiplier.
Kind of sad to run it underclocked because it is limited by the motherboard, but i'd rather have that than an incompatible motherboard or a motherboard i have to remember to tweak some settings every cmos reset or set some flags every kernel install or update just to have the darn thing boot.

You will not find them there any more. Moved them to a private server long ago, accessible only on my say so.
Really sorry to dig up this thread, but i want to find out what the newest BIOS for a board i have. I don't actually need the newest version, just to know if any newer version supports an 8.5 multiplier because my CPU is limited by the multiplier (there is no way to change it to a .5) The board is a Lanparty DK P35-T2 (it is identical to the DK p35-T2RS except that it uses an ICH9 PCH instead of the ICH9R, is missing 2 sata ports and may be missing a few odds and ends here and there). FIY, there is no actual picture i could find for the DK P35-T2. All discontinued listingings for it have the DK P35-T2RS picture
.I'm pretty sure it's the board highlighted in my attachement.
I have held on to this board because it is one of two boards from the 775/AM2 era that i have owned that are fully supported by Linux.
where to get bios for older mainboards (DFI, EPoX...)

Kind of sad to have weird multiplier inconsistency, but i'd rather have that than an incompatible motherboard or a motherboard i have to remember to tweak some settings every cmos reset or set some flags every kernel install or update just to have the darn thing boot (thing that have plagued my old experiences with Linux and 775/AM2 boards).
