They have 6 versions:
PTGD1-LA (Goldfish)
PTGD1-LA (Goldfish2)
PTGD1-LA (Grouper)
PTGD1-LA (Puffer)
PTGD1-LA (Puffer2)
PTGD1-LA (PufferM)
But a single update for all.
Ask HP service support.

Hi,

I hope you can also help me, I have a ASUS PTGD1-LA motherboard in my pc. It is an Advent T9401 PC http://www.uktsupport.co.uk/advent/pc/t9401.htm This is the full spec and although it lists the motherboard as a Trigem PTGD1-LA I have opened up the pc and it has Asus on it.

I am looking for a bios upgrade for this to enable PEG configuration as I am having alot of problems with the video card. I got this information from Ati who said a bios upgrade should cure it.

Full details of my problem are in posts from another forum, my reply is under devilman2000 Video card problems

Any idea where I would get a bios update from, many thanks for your help

Daniel

Is your motherboard a ASUS PTGD1-LA Socket 775 ATX MB w/P4 3.4GHz ? Please go to the link below and tell me if this is your motherboard.

Old Topic I know but I have found a solution to this problem. IT has nothing to do with a BIOS problem. Quite simple really, it was due to the graphics card and PC overheating. I Changed my case and installed a couple of large fans and since then no more errors and it has been running stable for a couple of weeks.
