Hmm how is this new BIOS version 0501 when the previous one was 0502 and the one before that was 04 something? :confused: Also, the onboard sound on my board is buggered. It was unfortunately over 28 days old when I worked this out so I just bought a soundcard to save dismantling my pc. Bit miffed though.

Having weird onboard soundcard problems with this 06 beta bios, sound manager keeps on blanking it out (preferred sound devices) also sound in opera has stopped working, can't get youtube videos to play. Winamp/games fine though.

Hi squiffy, I assume you've tried re-installing the latest realtek drivers?

Yeh, I saw that after d/ling the bios from the FTP site, turns out I was looking at the latest bios for the non-deluxe edition first time round!

I would try lowering the video resolution/graphics options and see what that does. Also make sure your using the latest catalysts. (and I would use drivercleaner too to make sure ALL remnants of old driver are removed before applying latest version.

this is too samesuspect. hi i just sold my asus a8r32-mvp, to run your san diego 3700 @ 2.6 u really dont need to lower your ht to 600 or x3 this board can easily go to 1500mhz fsb with no problems, i used to run my old sandiego 3700 @ 274fsb x 11, ht x5 = 3014mhz with a fsb of 1370mhz with no problems at all, 24/7. so i think you can raise your ht level cause 600 is well to low with board, well unless your using like 433mhz fsb x 6 LOL.
