tech said they are going to RE-FLASH the <acronym title="Basic Input Output Sytem">bios</acronym> and turn it a round should not take more then a week... right !!!! ill guess i have no choice ...

Does anybody test the Bios F5-New release on Computertechnik JZelectronic?
By the way I have three Gigabyte X48T-DQ6. One is dead with RMA# in box.

I've seen at least 1 report of this "new" F5 bios also being a board killer. Is anyone successfully using this bios?

I flashed the broken BIOS but then managed to recover successfully using this method.

Ran Prime95 yesterday for 8 hours no probs.

Not sure about trying the 'new improved' F5 just yet though...

Dear all
I try to copy this issue, but I don’t get the same problem.

However I will still talk to our RD, to confirm it.

Thank you.
