HELP! asrock 775dual-vsta bios flash problem

Yes I probably didnt seat it properly, so I went ahead and took off the heatseak to take a look at the cpu. Doesn't look like the thermal grease was unIform across the cpu. I've already ordered the new cpu fan/heatsink so I'll be using that regardless. I took some alcohol and q-tips and wiped...

HELP! asrock 775dual-vsta bios flash problem

Sorry I'm not sure what TIM stands for. As for reflashing back to an original AsRock bios,I did that(3.10), and yes it shows the 2.4 ghz at POST, but then when I get into Windows, it'd downclock again. I was checking the temps from the bios.

HELP! asrock 775dual-vsta bios flash problem

I should've checked this earlier, but my temps were too high even at idle. I watched it in the bios and it went up to 78 C. So I can only assume that the SpeedStep was kicking in due to that, to try and compensate for the high temps. I can't image how high the temp would go with the full clock...

HELP! asrock 775dual-vsta bios flash problem

Well I found out that Speedstep was causing the lower clock speeds , but it's been disabled yet still only using a 6 multiplier. Im using cpu-z to determine that. It's a problem because when I run a movie, it's laggy and can't keep up, and the processor is being used 100 percent. At that time...

HELP! asrock 775dual-vsta bios flash problem

Ok i've installed the 3.15a, and I think the problem isnt the bios version but something in my configuration. Using default settings my computer only will read 1.00 ghz and it will run fine (supposed to be 2.4ghz). If I tinker with the cpu settings, and get it to read 2.4 at post, it will...

Ok I reset the cmos but it still shutdown in windows after about 2minutes. Any other suggestions? Do you think I should try flashing back to a previous version of the bios? Maybe 3.15a or something?

HELP! asrock 775dual-vsta bios flash problem

Ok ill do that when i'm off work. Did reset it around the time I flashed as well. And yes I did changed some cpu settings so I could get the mobo to properly recognize my cpu's full speed. It was only seeing my e6600 as a 1ghz chip when I believe it clocks at 2.4 or around that.

Ok I successfully installed the new 3.17a bios with the iso instead, and got everything going, except I have a new problem. The machine powers off, whenever it well pleases. I tried different memory, and I tried a different power supply with the same results. Anyone have ideas as to what to...

HELP! asrock 775dual-vsta bios flash problem

Ok I did that and got rid of the cmos error and even the cpu speed got straightened ,but now I have a new problem. The puter turns off randomly! Have any ideas on that? It can be before the bios even cycles completely, or within windows. I tried a differently power supply, so it can't be that...

I'd love to but that file wasn't available by the link you put up, at least for me. :( I got the 4.2 instead.

Hey guys, I just recently flashed my bios to 3.17a (with winflash 4.2) from pctreiber.net and I have a few problems I hope someone can help me with. First off my cpu is an e6600 and at the beginning it shows it at 1ghz only, when it should be 2.66ghz. I've tried my hardest to get it to recognize...
