There are a lot of threads regarding this on the abxforums site. I had the same thing happen to me when I was trying to overclock the board manually to 250MHz FSB. Nothing suggested worked and I had to RMA the board. I am considering buying a spare bios chip so I can get out of similar situation...
Of the two P4P800 Deluxe boards I received (first one was RMA'ed), one (former, July 2003) did not have any power connector for the SATA drives and another (latter, Aug 2003) had a cable with a 4-pin molex at one end and SATA power connectors (not molex) at the other end and middle for two SATA...
1) If the system powers up OK, I doubt it. It's been long since I rebooted my system and I don't even remember whether it beeps once on startup or not! Hope someone else can answer this.
2) Doesn't matter. You can find older BIOSes at ftp://ftp.cizgi.com.tr/pub/ASUS/mb/sock478/p4p800. I am...
That's true. If you want to see what chipsets are available, run the .exe file with the options -A -A (i.e. -A twice) and it will extract the different INF files to the Program Files\Intel\InfInst directory.
Cooljt1: I wish I could get such scores out of my 64MB GeForce3 Ti200! I am getting 3DMark2003 scores between 900 and 1000 with absolutely no overclocking of my MB or video card! Hope that is normal for this card. :( I have searched for benchmarks for this card but all I could find were...
1GB RAM should be plenty for most situations! You can sell the remaining RAM and try to put some extra cash in your pocket or use it in another system!
Dual Channel => memory installed in pairs.
You should install the memory in pairs in slots of the same color. For example, if you have two sticks of the same type (2x512 or 2x256) place them both in the blue colored slots or both in the black colored slots but not one in a blue and one in a...
This is to reduce the RPM of the fans connected to the motherboard (CPU + 2 other fans headers are on the board) when there isn't an extensive use of the CPU. Running the fan(s) slower reduces the fan noise. The idea is that at lower CPU usage, lesser heat is generated by the CPU and components...
CJ:
Have you copied the txtsetup.oem and viaraid files on to the floppy too? I have not installed VIA RAID but I remember running into similar problems with my Promise Ultra 133 card because I had forgotten to copy the txtsetup.oem and another file. If there is a makedisk.exe utility on the CD...
I have an Asus P4P800 Deluxe board and hope the connections are similar for the P4C800 Deluxe. For my board:
USB Connection:
Use the 4-pin rectangular connectors shown in your pic. Say, Connector 1 is USB 5 and Connector 2 is USB 6. Line up Connector 1 with the USB 5 pins so the Ground on the...
Call them back and complain! Tell them to send you a replacement and ship this one back at their expense. Might have been an honest mistake since they are one of the better internet stores.
Turbo mode (also?) tightens the timing. On my P4P800 deluxe, Turbo mode used to set the timing on my Kingston HyperX PC3500 to 2-2-2-5. Don't know what exactly MAM does --- never got it to work!
1. Create a DOS boot disk and copy the afudos.exe and bios file (say p4p81009.ami) file to the disk.
2. Boot to dos using the disk created in #1
3. At the a:> prompt, type the command:
afudos /ip4p81009.ami
The assumption is that you are updating from BIOS v1008. If you are updating from...
