Okay I have taken the time to read up on a lot of things regarding this motherboard so know I hope you can answer a few Questions. Heres what I got:
GIGABYTE GA-EP45-DS3R
Intel Q6600 GO
2GB Mushkin DDR2 1066mhz
Swiftech H20-220 Water Cooling
Window XP x64
I'm going to be installing windows xp x64 today and my question is regarding the Bios update to F9:
1. After I load Windows XP x64 do i then go into bios and Qflash to F9? Doing that will it install all previous Bios updates or do I need to do each update seperate? Or do I install Bios updates before I install windows xp x64?
2. The overclocking tool for this motherboard, is it best to use the Bios or will this tool provide same?
Please provide as much feedback as you can for the bios update I will be using a USB pen that I have so if anyone has done the update with this please list steps of what is needed in the easiest way possible :)
I'm new to the forum but I hope I can find a good place to come and chat here because my wife has had it with me talking about computers to her lol. I guess I will list 10 ways working on your computer can ruin your marriage lmao.
Also if someone with same setup can post their bios so I know where to start to get to 3.2-3.4 would be a big help or if a Mod can provide me with a template on where to start also. I have been reading over forum so far and I think I am really in love with all the helpful information I'm finding.
