Hey chicken patty I had the same 88 code after a bios flash and several OClocking attempts. After I reset the cmos via the jumper it booted up. Give it a shot it worked for me.

bro sorry I missed your post, just saw it now. actually I just got a new board from newegg. I had to RMA it it wasn't botting for nobody. I'll post some results with the new board :toast:

Ok guys, system is back up and running. Now tomorrow i'll try to do some runs on factory HS, until I can get around to ordering a pump, res, and tubing

It's good to run a fan on that NB/Mosfet cooler. I just got done strapping a water block to the North Bridge, but now I'm tired. It's a great board, I love it.

nice dude, which NB block did you use?

erocker · Mar 13, 2009

It's a Swiftech MCW30. It had some hard time fitting as I had to bend two 2" bolts, then widen the holes in the brackets to acconodate the bent bolts. It seems tight and there isn't a gap between the block and the lower half of the heatsink, so hopefully it will work. One nice thing is that the water block sits right on top of the heatpipe for the mosfets now. It should be up and running tomorrow if there aren't any leaks. *crosses fingers

Been planning out a system for the kid's LP JR/X4 9550 setup, would you recommend that block, or should I look for something the fits better? I don't shy away from a little modding if it comes to it

I can't recommend the swiftech block. So far trying to mount it has been futile, so I'm getting an EK NB/SB "Asus" 1 block for it. According to the compatability chart it should be a direct fit.

I had a DFI LP UT X48 T2R awhile back.. and when ever I tried to update bios using winflash, my computer wouldn't boot up. I searched all around forums and stuff and gathered that winflash can actually kill your bios chip if it doesn't complete correctly. After reading this I contacted DFI and they sent me a new BIOS chip after I mailed in my old one. My computer started right up with the new one installed. From what I have learned, I can comfortably say it is much safer to flash the bios using a different method than winflash. Since then I have been using burned .iso files and an external floppy drive to update bios. That's been working like a charm. I don't know if that was your problem but just thought I'd let ya know anyways =).

could have been. I had done a BIOS flash through WIn flash not long before mobo died. However, it booted up afterwards. Wierd :confused:

Could you check and see if yours works?

Any of you guys know what CPU NB VID? I believe this is a divider. Default in the BIOS is 00. THis is not voltage.

Chicken Patty · Mar 29, 2009

latest stable setup. 1.36 vcore

Fatal · Mar 29, 2009

Sweet CP I didnt know you had that board :toast:

I have the DFI LP DK 790FXB-M2RSH this is what I have done so far still been messing around with it so many options. I am using BIOS 1/16/08 from what I have read is the best which are you using? You may want to look around to see which is best for your board.
