Does anyone know where can I find Tictac's d10beta4 bios and others for Abit NF7 series? I went through whole internet and every source I found has already expired. If anyone has this bios in the depths of his hard disk, please upload it to me somewhere, or if anyone can beat google then show me the link ;)

 

And btw, if anyone know, what's the clockgen PLL for this board or where can I find any list since clockgen section at cpuid website is down?

Well, the PLL should be readable? It's printed on the chip.

Podien got nice walk-through on finding the PLL here: http://www.cpu-cool.de/index.html

 

As for the BIOSes and such, please report any findings. I have a NF7 inbound one of these days myself, and would very much like to have it up to date before I start exploring/exploting it's capabilities :)

 

 

Edit: have you checked the abit website? :http://www.abit.com.tw/page/en/download/download_bios.php?pMAIN_TYPE=Motherboard&pSUB_TYPE=Socket%20A

Post couple links where you were searching. :) doesn't matter that they are dead.

This one is the most popular and almost every page about this bios is linking to this one:

I got little help at xs forums, and some guy gave me this link:

There is tictac's d10, but it's "mantarays" and I'm not sure what is it and if it will work at NF7 rev2.0.

 

 

EDIT:

Also someone at xs uploaded this for me:

http://www.benchbrothers.de/bilder/diverses/NF7D_10b4x2.rar

but he says "They should be for NF7-S with nForce Ultra-400." so I'm still not sure if it will work.

The standard version of clockgen should work, thats what I use. It should recognize your board without loading the PLL. There is also a older version just for Nforce2 called CGNF2. Somewhere in my collection I should have that bios, as I have most of tictac's, Merlin's, Trats, etc,etc. If i find it I'll upload it and post a link.

I decided to try some other bioses. Testing MantaRayXT at the moment, it's much better that the one I had before. I tried clockgen, and it autodetected PLL as you said, but when I click apply settings nothing happens and clocks are still default, do you have any idea why?

 

EDIT:

I just tried CPUFSB which is working quite fine.

I have no idea. It works fine on my AN7. There are several programs that will change the clockspeed through windows on a Nforce, including CBID, Speedfan and Nvidia's Ntune.

 

As far as that bios, I went through my whole archive and I do not have D10 beta

I spent last 2 days trying Discovery, TaiPan and MantaRaysXT. I didn't test them penetratingly, but mantaraysxt seems to be very nice one. Anyway I'm getting many strange problems with this platform. For example I can't push memory to 220mhz when at socket478 platform they were doing 240+.

Looks like you don't know about the Time Machine :D

This is why I asked for the dead link. You can make it undead :)
