ok, i ran this and its causing mucho problems so I'm back @ the 2-15 one...anyone else try this out?

 

[nippyjun]

I'm waiting to see exactly what it's supposed to fix. Although I really don't have any problems.

I think ill wait too.

jaybert, what kind of problems are you having.

I updated to the new BIOS and everything is running smoothly. According to www.ocworkbench.com , the KA266/R update is supposed to fix the reboot issue and increase memory performance.

The reboot issue was that sometimes the system would not POST but simply cutting power and starting it up again would solve the problem. This happened to me a few times. A friend got scared because he thought he broke my PC.

alot....my computer kept blue screening even when I lowered the OC all the way down to 1.33. I never had problems before using the 2-15 bios. I am back on the old bios @ 1.466 @ 1.85v. I'll probably just wait for a turbo bios to be released before I upgrade the bios again.

jaybert did you clear the cmos with the jumper after you updated the bios?

 

[jaybert]

nope

 

[nippyjun]

I think I saw a post over at amdmb or the iwill forums that said that this may solve your flash problem with the new bios.

 

[jaybert]

i'll give it a try but I dont see how flashing it would help me in regards to it not OCing as well
