This BIOS is ONLY for the EVGA X58 SLI Classified Motherboard (part number 170-BL-E762- )

BIOS 44:
  • Supports 32nm Desktop CPUs
  • Added "Turbo Performance" option (may boost performance if enabled)
  • Fixes 1866MHz Memory Ratio

BIOS updating can be accomplished VIA the below methods:


CD/DVD Installation - Recommended installation method
  • Download the following .iso file: E762_44.iso
  • Use a CD Burning software to burn the .iso image onto a blank CD (Nero, Alochol 120%, MagicISO etc.)
  • After it has burned, insert CD and restart the machine, go into the BIOS and load defaults, save and exit
  • Now set the CD Drive as the primary boot device, or press escape while the system is booting to select CD as the bootable device.
  • After flash remove the CD, and power off PC Completely.
  • Turn on the PC and load defaults in BIOS
 

USB FLOPPY Installation - Recommended installation method
  • Download the following executable: E762_44.exe
  • Insert blank floppy disk into drive and run executable
  • After the floppy has written fully, restart the machine, go into the BIOS and load defaults, save and exit
  • Now set the USB Floppy as the primary boot device, or press escape while the system is booting to select USB Floppy as the bootable device
  • After flash remove the floppy, power off PC Completely
  • Turn on the PC and load defaults in BIOS
 

USB Flash Drive Installation - Alternate installation method
  • Download:  E76244.bin
  • Visit this thread and follow the installation instructions. (thanks 30h6).
 


Warning:
**Do not restart or interrupt your PC while the flash is ongoing
**Do not Flash BIOS on overclocked settings
**It is always recommended to power-down after flash and Clear CMOS

    Hmmm. This means new bios for 760. Hopefully better than 43.

    Makes you wonder why they stagger the releases.  Last minute testing?  I always wondered.  If it was me they would all be out within a few minutes of each other.

    On topic, there will be no changes really in this BIOS, just a fix here and there for some issues that the 43 beta had like the DRAM problem.

    Ninja edit: Woohoo, E759 version is up.  You can get it here E75944.bin

    I think the memory multi issue is already an old problem... if you set the ram to 2:10 multi and uncore exactly 2x to the Ram frequency you will likely fall into this bug, I fixed this by setting the uncore multi 1x higher and 1x lower after reboot.
    For 44 BIOS initial testing, it's quite clear that full bank memory overclocking ability has been downgraded. With 2:10 multiplier it is almost impossible to get all the dram modules show up @ 2000Mhz
