Yeah lempo, BIOS 44 was horrid. It's primary use was to support new CPUs, but the code for that turned out to be flawed and was updated in subsequent versions. You would be making a big mistake to use it. Use the newest, 82, it is on the sticky at the beginning of this forum - for good reason.

Why did you resurrect this thread with an outdated bios? The latest bios is 82 this thread is talking about bios 44. All the information you need including the latest bios and how to flash it is located here:

the links in the usb flash tutorial don't work anymore. i was able to find them all on my own except the Dr.Dos file if anyone knows where to get it that would be great.

I just flashed my x58 LE with E757 with USB. I got to the end where it told me to press F1 and remove the 'floppy disk' and then now it's stuck in an infinite bootloop where it turns on and off again. =[

This might be a stupid question, but I can't tell which BIOS I need. I see no numbers anywhere; I have an EVGA X58 SLI LE. It doesn't really show that exact motherboard on the downloads page, so which one am I supposed to use???

I just received a Powercolor 5750 SCS3 to replace my previous Radeon 4850 and my PC always freezes during games (COD4, Dirt2...) after few second. I made a clean driver installation, checked the temperatures, etc. but nothing changed. I put the 4850 back in the case and everything is running smooth again. Could it be an incompatibility with the Bios 44 ?

I think this is normal.
I can't remember but I was surprised to have a blank disk and be able to boot on it.

Hi,

I have just updaded E757_44.iso this morning and found my memory has problem. My system, I7 920 D0 is ok 3*2GB RAM on default load, but the system only catches 2GB if the system changes to OC'ing state. Does anyone has this experience?

I have the same issue. I flashed on default, but used my saved OC profile after flash. OC works fine, but the bios now only shows 2gb out of the 6gb installed. Windows sees all 6 gb, but says only 1.99 available. I will go back and reset to default and manually try my OC again and see if this works.

I'm not even able to get the files on the USB stick I followed the directions made sure it was FAT formated and such. Nothing though every time I click start and select the drdos file it does the status bar and then i check to see if there are any files and nothing. I have show hidden files on and still nothing. I don't know what's going on and why its doing that. just wish i could flash to newest bios. CD wont work either.

I cannnot tell if BIOS update occured. CD drive only blinked for a couple of seconds on booting. What should Everest show for BIOS date? I have a trial version of WinRAR that is performing any unzipping. The ISO file is saved on desktop as a WinRAR file. Does this matter?

load CPU-z, click mainboard, mid page = bios date = 02/04/2010. If you see that date, it updated.

I cant get the USB method above working. Everytime after i load the "drdos.bin" with BootDisk2BootStick then try to open explorer to the USB drive, it says my drive isnt accessible. ive tried 2 usb sticks now. What am i doing wrong?

I may be wrong, but since it's operating under DOS, I believe it needs to be formatted in "FAT" to be accessible and bootable for DrDos. In my case, I had a 2G SD disk that was reduced to 1.44M (floppy size) partition but nonetheless it worked as it should.

It does get reduced to floppy size and all the file nearly fill it up. and ya I think it needs to be formatted in FAT. I think BootDisk2BootStick does that though... not sure...

Thanks, Governator and subaruguru

I will try to format it to FAT and try it again for the next BIOS update

I updated with defaults.
I found that my problem happend when I reloaded my preivous overclocked state from "Save Profile". I don't understand updating new version of BIOS don't remove saved profile. My system is ok with RAM when I reset overclocked state manually.

Dont reload a saved OC profile, write down all your settings and recreate the OC from scratch, then save it again.

Yo guys loading defaults is key, if you don't do it it doesn't go right at all. But I have to say I had a really difficult time getting a i7 920 to *EDIT 4.15GHz* since the BIOS update.

I had issues like that flashing while overclocked....I than dropped it back to stock and flashed like EVGA says to do and it was running fine.

I have the same issue.

I was stable at 4.2

After flashing this bios - I can no longer go past 3.7. Setting are the same. I even tried tweaking the voltages higher. Very strange.

Not sure I will bother flashing back to the prior version tho. I am planning to upgrade to the 6 core i9 when it comes out in March and apparently we need this version to support the 6 core chips.

Bummer tho.

Did you flash with your overclock or back at stock?

I flashed with the OC setting.

After the flash the bios was back at the default settings ( which is what usually happens). So I had to put everything back the way it was. ( I had written the settings down ). I keep the bios settings at a 3.5 OC. I have an EVGA E-Leet profile for a 4.0 OC and 4.2 OC.

Those no longer work. I was able to loosen the memory settings to get back to 4.0 OC stable. Haven't had the time to play around with getting higher than that.

This is the first time I have ever had an issue like this after a bios upgrade.

Hi everyone,
I hate to be negative on my first post but this BIOS update still didn't fix known problem with USB locking up when thumb drive is plugged in and in my case recognizes 1600 DDR3 ram as 1066 which is not that big of deal. Does anyone have any idea when USB issue will be fixed or do I need to RMA motherboard?
Just an FYI if I plug in thumb drive in add on USB card system does not lock up.

Thanks

Your 1600 DDR3 will show as 1067 in the Memory settings. It is Tri-Channel memory, so 1067 x 3 = 3200, which is your Uncore frequency, divide that by 2 and you have your 1600MHz DDR3 Memory running correctly in Tri-Channel. As far as the Thumb drive, it may be running an older file system like FAT or FAT16, FAT32... If you're using Vista or especially Windows 7 in 64-bit you want to make sure everything is NTFS. I have 6 thumb drives I've hooked up between this version and the previous BIOS version, none had any problems. Food for thought I guess.

I'm not sure about bousfield but I flashed at stock bios settings (i just hit load defaults)

I have the EVGA X58 classified board. I was wondering since the 285 classified GPU's are sold out. If I buy 4 295 SC COOP cards, since they are only 2 way SLI, can I hook up a 2x2 system? What I mean by 2x2 is have 2 sets of SLI connected 295's. Will there be any downfall if it does work?
