Two versions were released for this line 4T and 4A. The differ between different motherboard revisions.

From Paul's Unofficial FAQ:


<< The latest BIOS release for all KT7 motherboards (apart from the KT7A/KT7A-RAID v1.3) is 4A.
The latest BIOS release for the KT7A/KT7A-RAID v1.3 ONLY is 4T
>>



My question is has anyone flashed to either of these and where can I find my revision number physically on the board?
Thanks, BRETT

I flashed mine. Got a checksum error on reboot, had to redo all my bios settings. Smelled burning silicon. Everything seems ok the next morning. Didn't fix my Diablo 2 problem. In retrospect, I wouldn't have upgraded.

Yeah, I keep reading of many problems flashing the bios across every manufacturer and chipset, So, to be rhetorical, don't flash unless it's the only known fix for a problem your having and you can't live with the problem. However, if it IS the only way, invest in Bios savior It'll assure you of having a working bios regardless of any flash trouble. Sorry I forgot to include an answer:eek: On my KT7 the revision# is on a barcode by the ISA slot and right above the bios chip, mine is v 1.02 .
