it appears they are breaking seals taking out C1 mobo and putting in C2 in place and not bothering to replace info sticker on box. Eventually they wont have to do this.
C2 mobo of all flavors are in stock at most of the German stores right now (also a few U.K.), both online and Retail, and they show the correct M0EAY5 number. I wonder how much it would cost to ship a mobo from there to here. I assume it wouldnt be too bad if you were on East Coast...
Actually the INTEL based MAC address is programmed into the bios at time of manufacture by vendor, then also placed on side of 24 pin ATX socket with sticker. Third party LAN chips like Realtek are not affected by erasing flash - these never change, they have their own firmware and firmware...
I'll say it again:
Mobo PC revision # is irrelevant to C1 or C2 SB install.
New chip will fit in any revision PCB
If anything OTHER than soutbridge is changed for whatever reason, the PCB revision may change also.
The SB revision will change as noted
ASRock box sticker...
thats some strange stuff - never seen anything like that before
where are you getting O/S from and by what manner?
You need to do a CRC check on your O/S ISO
A "cracked" Win 7/8 might do this
Did you get mobo from retail dealer in sealed box?
I would download a Win 7 ISO direct from MS and...
is your RE4 a new build?
Do you have HD Audio enabled in bios?
Can you make screenshots of device manager/sound video and game controllers (opened) and Win 8/7 sound front page in cntrl panel
The Realtek sound chip is at the lower left of the mobo (see manual schematic) - is any of your water...
Yep, the new 4310 bios support IB-E CPU, and these ROG UEFI just came out today. They specifically say they support IB-E, no question about it.

If it comes back again:
Take some masking tape and put a small piece on ea RAM stick
Mark ea of the 4 sticks as A,B,C,D
Place sticks AB only in slots A1 B1 per mobo manual diagram
Try that
Place sticks CD only in slots A1 B1
Try that
Try same but with slots A2 B2 instead
See what happens...
Yeah, thats different
You could try manually upping the mem voltage a bit, at least just for testing
The fact it happened when downloading (juice going to storage devices) may indicate power issue - your PSU has 8 pin aux 12V - correct?
And you should try various single and dual sticks by...
also. fwiw the Kingston number callout you mentioned "8GX" is a 2 X 4GB kit that you cant make 32GB out of. In any case it would appear you are using multiple kits to attain 32 GB which only works with ceratin brands and Kingston is not one of them/
However, there are pretested 32GB KITS from...
Check to make sure in Windows cntrl/panel sound that speakers are default audio device.
When chip is dead the green I/O port (also the other five) are greyed out even tho some speaker is plugged into it - not headphones.
This can happen from:
Plugging minicable into/out of port when PSU is...
The battery operated suction tool is for placing the CPU only under complete control - likewise the suction dart - has nothing to do with straightening pins. Either used to avoid touching the cpu with fingers when installing.
Nope, the CPU sets in the black plastic socket cradle and the tension on the pins is preset by distance. The only way you could have done it is drop one of the CPU corners at an angle into the pin grid by not being careful when handling.

Now that you have posted pic, I see they are definitely bent , but once again has nothing to do with Heatsink. So that still brings up the question of who bent them - you accidentally or them deliberately.
You can use 2 (for control) larger sewing machine needles (they come in a pak) with an...
Your post makes absolutely no sense.
Sorry, but you cant tighten a heatsink to the point it will bend CPU socket pins underneath.
You can however tighten the hex nuts on the Hyper 212+/Evo till they pinch the mobo layers.
And fwiw newegg always says bent pins - theres a gigantic thread...
What do you mean "they reflashed it"?
Who reflashed it?
Where did you buy bios chip that didnt work?
If things are working, why do you want to reflash bios now?
Who cares if its missing some ID info?
The first post here in this thread explains all about auto or manual backup creation...
Any Realtek GBe chip on mobo has nothing to do with bios, its totally separate.
Yes you will have 2 MAC adresses, if you have 2 LAN ports
By using ipconfig /all in cmd prompt (space after "g") you will see them
The only way you will update non Intel LAN port is with a firmware update, which...
I just downloaded it fine from website

Looks like 1802 had an issue and 1803 was put out 12 days later...
All that means is there was no issue with your 1908 flash, since 2003 has no ME upgrade. Same with me, was just a normal nothing special deal. I didnt even do a CMOS reset.
Might mention I saw something right off the bat was dif - a new "USB Support" option on the boot page.
Default is...
As it stands now, I think you are getting all you are gonna get out of this config. And turboing to 3.8 is quite good anyways. If you use an app like mediaespresso, you might even get up to 3.9. I now think your problem is because your mobo is non B3. B3 bios are NOT compatible with non B3...
Whatever happens, I do not regret advising buying a known correctly programmed chip to both of you. Its a cheap way to eliminate any bios flash as a complicating issue. Saves lots of troubleshooting wasted time.
Valky - you just might have something there - heh
I have no experience whatsoever with H series mobo, so I downloaded the manual and sure enough, theres not much there, esp no Turbo, unless you set EIST to enabled FIRST.

Wow, 2/3 of AIT page is missing!
Wish you had showed me that first.
Thats not Turbo missing, thats everything missing.
So we will have to go back to basics

@Xplosive
I think I know the chip vendor you used.
Everything will prob work out O.K., but I personally only recommend either ASUS or System Electronics, and they ship worldwide (use search box for your chip).

your new chip will solve your problems, takes 5 working days to ship.
(chip only goes in one way - look at where little half moon NOTCH in plastic is on old chip)
Also any new chip install requires a PSU unplugged cmos reset before using.
Its not "disabled" - its a bios partition...
