Last word on TH7-II?Please-Confused!
Hi All,
I ordered a TH7-II, P4 1.6A, Rambus combo. I've read that the boards come with BIOS "37" which doesn't recognize the NW? I know that BIOS "38" and the hacked beta "77" do recognize NW. I also read that the board will post with "37", but at say 9xx Mhz so you can flash.I also read that disabling "speed error hold" will allow the board to post so you can flash?
Now I just read on another forum that there is no way it will post with the 1.6A, and I have to get a new BIOS chip, or find P4 Willemette?
Please, I'd like to set this up as soon as it arrives, does anyone know positively that I will be able to post a 1.6A with the "37" BIOS so I can flash?
Thanks for any help,
Mike G
