"NEW" A8R32-MVP BIOS 0502

[Aries64]

Sorry if this has been posted, but I didn't see a NEW thread on it so here it is. Although it is dated 0502, I just saw it on Asus' web site this morning. For some reason I cannot create a direct link to the A8R32-MVP download page, but here is a link to the main download page. From here, you have to fill in the info in the drop-down menus. ASUS download page

You have to do this even if you are already on the A8R32-MVP page, which is pretty lame. Strangely, a note on the 0502 BIOS download page says "Fix ASUS PC Probe will display incorrect PWR fan reading". I will be dissapointed if this BIOS revision only "fixes" the PWR FAN reading, which seems to work OK on my board anyway.

EDIT 07/23: OK, after flashing to 0502, the only difference for me is that now Q-Fan works (Q-Fan had stopped working for me when I flashed from 0311 to 0404). From what I can tell no other changes are readily apparent, including the memory options.

Is anyone running 0502 yet? Any significant changes that you have noticed at all? TIA.

Haven't tried it yet, but thanks for the heads up that it is available. I am eager to see how it effects this board.

I'm running it right now, but unfortunately I just got my computer running and flashing it from the stock BIOS to 0502 was one of the first things I did so I can't really compare it to the original. Sorry.

i used the 0404 then flashed to 0502 today, works great and easy with asusupdate. fixed the power fan speed reader from pc probe 2, it used to flash from correct rpm to 0 every second and would cause pcprobe to detect and error, i just disabled the pwr fan reading in pcprobe to solve that. the 0502 fixes that, everything else works fine

I haven't tried this yet, but I'm hoping it will fix my cold booting issue. Probably not though.
