P4PE owners - Bios response slow?

KrzyPrk · Nov 10, 2002

Just got in this first P4 board. When making changes in the BIOS the response is quite slow. Is it just mine?

Big Nuttz · Nov 10, 2002

The only time mine is slow is when I overclock it too high. I just bump it back down and it responds fine.

Not mine... I never got that even @ 160fsb...

vbhard · Nov 14, 2002

It is only slow if I overclocked it too much ..otherwise not

KrzyPrk · Nov 15, 2002

hmm..not overclocked here. wonder if i need an RMA.

vbhard · Nov 17, 2002

Have you tried flashing the BIOS?

btw I am using the second version 1002

Mine is slow too. In fact, the BIOS on the Asus A7V8X is somewhat the same.

KrzyPrk · Nov 18, 2002

hmmm...i gotta check out which version it is. also, did you have the same problem as well vbhard?

anyway, out of all the several boards ive seen, ive never seen anything act this slow.

I only had the problem while my FSB was 166-168FSB(3:4 settings) not otherwise.

Try flashing the BIOS to 1002

thanks

I just downloaded that file and the aflash. now, i just need to get a blank floppy and gotta find out which version that board has.

oh, when i first got into the bios it was slow from the start before making any changes.

A7V8X (1010.02) --> Asus GF2 MX200
P4PE (1001) --> Abit Ti4200 and Asus GF2 MX

Just updated the BIOS from 1001 to 1002....result is still the same. I'm beginning to think that this board was used or maybe has to do w/ the combination w/ the video card.

That's for sure...!!!...Why don't you try another VGA...???

My new P4PE does this too. Everything else works perfectly, but I noticed the bios response is a little slower than my old P4B266-C was. I'm running an Asus V9280S/TVD 128MB Geforce 4 TI4200
video card.

Is this a problem, or just the way things are now. BTW I upgraded to the lastest bios, 1003 rev 10 beta, and it didn't fix it.

I have the p4g8x deluxe, and response is a bit slow (like a bit laggy) at any speeds... it´s the 1003 bios version, with a creative ti4200 64mb, so I don´t think it´s the graphics card

hope this helps

CompuDrew · Mar 18, 2003

Mine is a little slow, too. I'm using the 1002 bios and a 9500 Pro. Everything seems to work fine, though.

KrzyPrk · Mar 18, 2003

everything works fine here too. i didnt bother trying using another video card.
