My P5N-E SLI motherboard has been suffering from the Startup failures since updating the BIOS from 0202 to 0608 - pretty big jump, about 8 months apart. Never had any problems with 0202, but decided to update nevertheless.
Did the update in Windows first, but re-flashed using the AWDFLASH P5NESLI.BIN /py/sn/wb/cc/cp/cd, to clear all the remnants of the old BIOS.
Still startup problems - again this morning.
The computer is 100% Orthos and Memtest stable, never suffered BSOD's or any other errors in Windows, playing Far Cry, NHL 07 and Quake 4 without any issues at all.
Decided to change the Boot option from "Halt on [All errors]" to "Halt on [No errors]".
What is the worst case scenario? I know all is stable, and all the voltage, frequency and timings settings in BIOS are working fine.
Is it possible to do any damage to any of the components, if something fails down the road?
I would appreciate your comments and sugestions.
