Wow! That was fast!

Thank you very much. After 6 months of trouble my comp is back alive :D

Winflash and the new BIOS did the job!

Keep up the good work!

Does anybody know what the fastest CPU supported by 3.14?

I've got an X2 3800+ now and a couple people claim to have faster CPU's installed so please speak up.

I know a X2 4200+ toledo will work but will anything faster?

Acording to HP the A8AE-LE has a capable speed of 3700 Mhz. The Athlon 64 X2 4400+ has an operating speed of 2200 Mhz and the fastest AMD CPU made for the 939 socket (according to Wikipedia) was the Athlon 64 X2 4800+ which runs at 2400 Mhz.
This cpu runs at 110 watts so get a big big heatsink.
It looks like the MB can out run the available cpu.

Hi can someone please send the 3.14 bios?I am not sure if this will fix the problem or not.My Dad has the hp sr1750nx with the sb400 and 3.13 bio.This computer has always seemed slow,even after getting rid of the gazillion startup programs on it.The other day it he told me it really got slow.What I found is,in device manager scsi and raid controllers, no drivers and yellow exclaimation.His sata drive (not raid)is listed in ide controllers and running at ata5.I tried updating sata ,ide,sb400 drivers.The video and audio and ide all seemed to update okay but I cant get any drivers to work/update the scsi and raid controllers.Any ideas why I cant get the scsi drivers to work?Should I have the drivers working before I flash bios or does it even matter?Does anybody think flashing may help that problem? Even if I get driver issue fixed,I will still flash,cause as I said it has always been slow.Thanks for any and all help.

Is it possible to make a screenshot and post that here (upload it elsehwere and link to it, uploadit.org seems to work nice, if you have your own webspace that works too).

Sometimes disk controller (!) marks come from bootsector viruses, maybe it's time to use a free updated recent virusscanner for a second opinion. AVG is easy http://free.grisoft.com

However, I cannot get bflash to work. It says "I is not Award BIOS". the bflash says it's version 8.21A

Where can I find a newer version, or something that will work?

HELP!

I've looked all over that page, and I can't get any of them to work. I'm no longer running windows, so I don't think the winflash will work. I can't run it from DOS can I? And all the other flashes I've found say it's not an Award BIOS. Sniff. sniff.

Hey Edwin, I would also appreciate a copy of the v3.14 bios. One question though, will this version give the user the ability to change the clock settings of the cpu. If this question has been asked before and I missed it, I apologize. I'm just a little upset that the current bios locks me away from this setting.

Thanks

any award flash version 8.6 or newer should work. DOS bootdisk can be had at http://www.bootdisk.com take the no-driver drdos flash disk.
