hi

 

i have an issue with 07 and 015 bios . all my old ati card doesn't display, the system boot without problems . i have test with 3850 4870x2 ans 2900xt . i don't have more recent ati card . have you got the issue ?

I also had issues trying to boot with 4870X2 and GTX 295 on the M8 Extreme. Managed to boot once with 4870X2, but most of the time it would stop at A3 or A0. This was with bios 0014.

I'm sorry if this is a really dumb question but is it possible to create a bios to allow for a little more bclk for the locked i3's on the asus boards. I'm sure it obviously wouldn't be a priority but a beta bios to compete a little more in xtu would be awesome.

I have at M8E issue with higher dividier than 3600 MHz. 3600 MHz I can run with 12-17-17-28-1T, but If I tried 3733 or 3866 MHz and timings 14-19-19-30-2T or 15-20-20 no post, the best what I got was reboot cycle/loops :-( The IO 1.17V, SA 1.2V, DRAM 1.7V (I tried 1.75V to 1.95V also and it not helped)

Hey Flanker,i wrote about this here:

Basically you need to set TRDWR_sg TRDWR_dg and TRDWR_dr + TRDWR_dd same as cas .

 

In your case i would try 12-19-19 1.8V and set these TRDWR_sg TRDWR_dg and TRDWR_dr + TRDWR_dd to 12 manually. Also leave IO and SA auto

[flanker]

thank you Alex, tomorow Il test your settings. Hope it will be working. Today Im tired from half day of BIOS settings and isue codes before post

PS:but 3600 MHz worked very well in timings

[Gunslinger]

How about some nice, high and tight dual sided B-Die memory presets? Pretty please with sugar on top!

[flanker]

will be worked at single sided also ,-)? These are TridentZ 2x 4GB 3600MHz SN1546A5004259115

[websmile]

Yes, this is an old issue that was first discovered at D-die, it also solves some problems at E-die (your mems) and I think also on new B

[flanker]

OK, with new BIOS I get up to 3866 MHz. But 4000 MHz not...I tried for 4 GHz also the Samsung B-die profile and nothing changed (code 41 and cycling of reboots).

I also had issues trying to boot with 4870X2 and GTX 295 on the M8 Extreme.

 

Try Gen 1, this allowed me to boot the GTX 295

[Rauf]

Try Gen 1, this allowed me to boot the GTX 295

Can't access bios even. But will try more later, probably much later...

[Leeghoofd]

just use another card to set it up

[aerotracks]

My 3870X2 is working fine on Impact, but tons of issues on Z77, whyever that is. These old dual cards are strange things.

[natalu88]

hello everybody, just joined the forum, some very nice stuffs here) can someone please explain me what about the bios posted on the first page are? are them different than the official bios from asus in what?

[phobosq]

I think I fried my Impact, after last LN2 session it doesn't want to OC anymore - if I change settings from CMOS default eventually I get 41 code which afterwards is followed by 00 code with fans at 100%, after clear CMOS it boots (on stock ofc). Also the settings (multi, BCLK, voltages) I input in BIOS are not applied - everything runs on auto.

@websmile gave me an idea that maybe MEI could be the issue here, and it might be back to normal if I could recover it. But no idea how to do it.

I already tried flashing BIOSes 0205, 1302, 0002, 0014 - without success (with EZFlash or using USB Flashback). Rest of components - CPU, RAM, GPU - are OK, tested and working in GB Z170x SOCF. I also cleaned the CPU socket, checked that pins are OK, and checked RAM slots.

Hey there,

 

I have been looking at this topic and flipping pages and I am unable to install the USB and Chipset drivers that are available on the first page. I have found the procedure how to install the Asmedia USB on this forum on another topic but it doesn't work for me.

 

Is the chipset zip file for XP?

 

I have the Asus Z170-P Mainboard Bios V5.02

 

I see that there is a bios 404 available should I downgrade? what would that gain from it?

[websmile]

No chipset drivers needed, but you can use old ones iirc for other platforms (donßt nail me on this, I used xp without drivers or MEI), on USB you can only try barbonet´s method or a discrete USB 2.0 card

[mahaudi]

Is there already a newer BIOS than the 0015 @ Extreme ?

 

For better Samsung B support

[nickolp1974]

The xp ready bios, specifically for the gene, do they add IDE option?

[speed.fastest]

Any idea how to install 7 x64 on M8G with i3 6100? I use BIOS 0015. I follow AHCI & USB 3 Slipstream to 7 but my Keyboard & Mouse can't move at all. Even if i use PS2 Keyboard. Any help would be appreciated

[nickolp1974]

In bios, advanced/USB and enable the options in there
