I have the biostar TP43D2-A7 mobo, and have been in the process of ocing my 6400. It's running all good at 410*8, and it was doing it with stock volts (auto setting in BIOS). That was about 1.29 under load. So then I notice there is a new BIOS for the board on the website. I use the flash utility, and it works perfect. Now, under p95 my core temps rarely went abot 61-62C, but after the BIOS flash, I notice it was running around 60C, but I was only running at half load, so I started up p95. Sure enough, the suckers went past 70C. I brought up HWmonitor and the voltage had gone up to 1.39! So I rebooted, checked that it was on auto setting, and it was. Apparently, the BIOS has increased the volts on the auto setting. Now, the mobo is a little different in that it raises volts by % instead of .1, .2, etc. It does it in 5% increments. I selected the +5% and started it up. Now, the volts are at 1.34 under load, .05 lower. Weird.
So, since I'm a deet-da-deet, and I didn't back up my orig bios, I'm thinking I'm screwed. Biostar doesn't have the orig bios on its website, just the update. And now I'm running generally 5C over what I could and should be. Does anyone out there have this board that has experienced this? Could it be fixed if I just try flashing the bios again? Or does anyone know where I could find the orig bios for it? Help? Thanks.
