I've the been having a lot of issues with IP35 Pro. I haven't been able to get a stable overclock on it since updating the bios. I thought it might be the board at first but I bought a new one, along with RAM, and have had the same issues.

I decided to roll back the BIOS to see if I could get a stable test so I flashed back to 12. Now here's the problem.

Just about everything is disabled by default. The keyboard is booting from OS which means when I get to log in screen I can't type in my password. So, I made a MS-DOS start disk and put the updated BIOS on it. Boot from floppy ok, ready to flash. I need to type in the run command but I can't because the keyboard powers off as soon as the boot gets past the BIOS loading stage.

Does anyone have any ideas how I can flash this ^&*&^%& retarded BIOS? The only thing I can think of right now is boot from vista disk, reinstall vista without a password and then flash using ABIT's windows client but I really don't want to do that unless absolutely necessary.

Edit: I should have said, everything is disabled by default and there is no enable option. I can't change any of the CPU features, the USB features, nadda :/
 
I resolved it. Found a store that actually still sold PS/2 keyboards. Word of advice, don't ever ever revert to that BIOS. Why the hell it's even on their site is beyond me. Practically nothing runs on it.
 
if you have a rev1.1 IP35 Pro the earliest BIOS that supports it is 14.
Other than that & for CPUs released later 12 should be fine.
