Hey Andy been a while since I last saw you in this thread. Good point re the BCLK clocking. Not the way to go in my view at all.

Hi , how are things? Yeah been a bit quiet on the forums, I think it wont be long until the arrival of the B3's , are you going to change your board 1Day?
I guess there will be seperate bios files out for these chipsets.
 
I will be getting a B3 revision board yes - I tend to collect them. Have pretty much each board and their revisions since I started benching. You never know which board will be the most efficient until you test it yourself. Personally I have never even used my SATA ports yet.

Not sure there will be any need to a major BIOS change but since it will be a rev2 board their will perforce be a separate product and therefore BIOS selection.
 
Out of interest what do you use a floppy drive for? I have one but I have not used it in three years. Since the advent of booting from USB drives there is no more need for me to have one. I think I just keep it for sentiment sake.

How else can I install Windows 3.1?

I remember when people said "Windows 95 is amazing! You've got to try it", then the same with Windows 98, XP... it's just M$ marketing hype, selling you the same old rubbish with a fancy new name. If it wasn't for Minesweeper, I'd go back to DOS.


PS Can anyone advise me where I might purchase a RAM module? 8KB would be ideal, although I could upgrade to 16KB to be "future-proof". I understand the byte/guinea ratio is quite favourable at present.

Hi , I am not sure that they do ddr3 in those quantities :)
 
Having lots of system issues with this board, apart from not being able to do any overclocks, the whole system audio is out of sync, when playing games, or video, which is strange as never knew that could happen...

Tested onboard audio as well as nvidia hdmi audio on gtx 570, also tried disabling sli, using different speakers, different screens but no luck, reinstall os with stock and updated drivers, what could be the culprit, motherboard?, Ram?, GPU, PSU

Specs:

i7 2600K
UD7 with defualt bios settings..
2 x ssd in raid 0 on intel sata 6 for boot
2x wd scorpio in raid 0 on intel sata 3
2x samsung f4 in raid 0 on marvel
optical drive on intel sata 3
wd ears on intel sata3
2x 2gb gksill ripjaw, 2x 4gb gskil ripjaw, 1600mhz
Enermax Modu 87+ 900w
2x gtx 570
pci -e x 1 usb 3.0 card

Any ideas where to start testing to find problem?, will disconnect all hard drives excpet 1 ssd, as well as remove 2 rams, 1 gpu, that's probably first thing to do, but removing hard drive power cables are not easy as everything is cable tied... also system is in p183 case and is very very very heavy...

Any help would be appreciated,
 
Hi - what you need to do is go to the Gigabyte site.

Download the new @BIOS it is quite safe to use since Giga have a dual bios on the UD7 :) So basically your board is brick proof.

Once on the site, use the link above, download the latest BIOS and flash your motherboard. I am pretty sure that will sort your issues out.
