Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

how many times does not restart anyway bsod
Googling said that this is a mistake of the video driver, I reinstalled the driver, but in the end anyway this error
Rolls back to the stable bios F5 everything is fine
but I need the beta bios it only supports overclocking my CPU

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

Stasio, is there any chance that a MB bios issue is causing my no post with R9 270X toxic cards? I can use a HD 5830, and a older ATI pci-e card, and the board post's just fine. All the board slots check out also, and the 270x cards boot fine in my X58 board.

Which BIOS...how many cards..?
The best is asking GB Technical support.

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

Im running the latest F8g bios, the board will not post with any of the 270x cards, but is fine with hd5830, or a old AMD card... I have a ticket open with Giabyte, and Sapphire.

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

Where can I go with my problem? Should we expect a new stable bios with full support for overclocking my CPU?

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

Does anyone have missing memory after updating windows 8.1 the other day?, I don't think its a bios issue as it says all the correct amount, 16GB, 4096,4096,4096,4096, enabled is the same, but after login dimm3 socket becomes 2046, but im still in quad channel, im so confused, wheres the 2gb gone?

F8 > f10

Can i go from F8 to F10 via Q-Flash ?

(I'm asking this coz i have read about 'Efiflash.exe' some pages ago)


Thx

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

If size of BIOS are same...yes.
If size are different (or Q-Flash updated)....no... (must use @BIOS or Efiflash)

Thanks stasio :)

As per spec..(Z87X-UD5H) and GB official page, you can see that for BIOS F9 asking to be used Efiflash,as probably Q-Flash is updated.
So,
from F8 to F10 => must use Efiflash (@BIOS ?).

Re: GIGABYTE Latest Beta BIOS

Hello guys,
I have a huge problem with my GTX 980 and my X99-UD4 F9 motherboard.
When I try to flash a BIOS on my 980 with NVFlash (DOS version) i just get the error that "no nvidia display adapters found".
The Windows tool just crashs (I tried like 20 different NVFlash versions).

Flashing the card with my old P67A-D3-B3 motherboard just worked fine so I assume the mainboard is the problem.

Can anyone confirm this error or does anyone know a fix?

And how i do it?

I have to create a bootable FreeDOS/MS-DOS USB stick using Rufus, copy the three files inside, and booting from usb?
better use FreeDOS or MS-DOS?

do you have download link for latest efiflash that i can use?


Thanks and sorry to bother you with so many questions

Why didn't use VGA Tools -- @BIOS 1.60?
