Re: Gigabyte latest bios
Bit puzzled on this one. I installed my new UD5H last night along with my crossfired dual 6950s. When I attempted to fire up the machine I got 1 long beep followed by 2 short beeps. Looked up the code and it stated there was an issue with the graphics cards. So I pulled them both and plugged into the motherboard's dvi-d. The bios then came up this time. I upgraded the bios to F7 (same result with today's F8a) and booted into windows just fine. I then shutdown, put in the 6950s and restarted. Again I was unable to get the bios to come up. I've tried with a single HD6950 in both pcie x16 slots, still cannot get the machine to post. I've set the graphics to initialize the peg first without any luck as well. I even tried disabling the iGPU entirely. I also tried setting the pcie's rom to legacy instead of efi compatible. None of these ideas earned a different response. The board simply refuses to post with the ATI card plugged in.
I'm using a PC Power and Cooling 910w Silencer, i5 3570k, Gigabyte Z77x-UD5h, 2x4GB G.Skill Sniper DDR3 2133 in slots 1 and 3. Any ideas are much appreciated!
