the uber problem with my A8N SLI
- Thread starter d3fc0n5
- Start date
Hmm thats interesting. What OS and what did the blue screen say? Running prime 95 means you were most likely sitting at an otherwise idle desktop so no files should have been corrupted. Have you tried reinstalling the OS yet? Where exactly is the comp locking up at after posting?
d3fc0n5 said:ok guys i got it back up and rinign i think it was all cuz of the beta bios i was runing now it is runing fine at 2.0 can go much higher cuz the bios i am runing now dosent have a PCI lock
I can get every BIOS revision to have the Lock functional.
All you have to do is make sure you set your FSB in the BIOS to 201 and then boot to windows and use clockgen to adjust your HTT. I have tried this in the following BIOSes: 1002 1003.003 - 005, and it works fine.
