DFI ICFX3200 T2R/G - BIOS recovery problem

[Prime]

Here we go

[Stuart]

Gigabyte EP45 Extreme or something, Guahan has had that board since like, forever, actually sold it a few days ago on SS

Ah, okay. I usually find myself owning the <insert chipset here>-DQ6 boards, so maybe when that comes out ... though I'm sure it'll be insanely expensive ... like R3k plus ... when it hits our shores.

Hmmm, i see Sybaritic has taken down the model of baord i am getting. make me wonder if that board is out of production and if thats, not what's causing the delay on my suppliers end. if thats the case, i'll go with a full atx board and case.

Sorry, we are completely hijacking your thread, Fire

There are a grand total of 15 P45 boards on the Gigabyte site, including the DS4 AND the DQ6.

Oh ... The DS4 must be quite nice too. Did Gouhan sell it already? Cos he always sells things at insane prices ... would've been a good buy. I should visit SS more often.

[Stuart]

No way, he was selling an Extreme. *slaps himself for not visiting SS frequently enough*

I will have you know, Mr. Cake, that I am having a civil conversation with WiK1d here. As the chances of dragging him into the spam thread are roughly as good as me ever convincing rusty to use Vista with Firefox, I had no choice but to post in a thread more relevant to his interests.

[Prime]

Have you considered asking Wik, Stu?

Come join us in the Spam thread Wik

Come join us in the Spam thread Wik

Well that is a start

[Firestrm_ZA]

Right, im back, after getting generic ddr2 667 ram, my rig still doesnt boot, i get stuck on the POST page, it shows me specs and asks me press f1to continue, or del to enter setup. if i press either the rig freezes on either a 76 or 7f post code on my post lcd.

Any ideas guys?

im getting ready to tear my hair out now

[Firestrm_ZA]

well, i ordered a new bios chip this evening from http://www.flashbios.org

[Stuart]

It would be quicker to get a Gigabyte motherboard.
