    Re: EVGA X79 Classified - BIOS 2.06 Released 2013/12/27 21:36:36 (permalink)
    Hello,
    I just recently updated to BIOS v2.06.  I have lost power on at least one of my PCI-E slots.  The slot that has lost power is the one that my RAID controller card is plugged into.  I do not have this issue with BIOS v047.  Is there something that I am missing in the BIOS setup?  I am currently using an Intel Core i7-3820 Sandy Bridge-E processor.  Is there something that can be done about this?
     
    Thanks

    Change the CONFIG.SYS file to:

    device=HIMEM.SYS /testmem:off
    dos=high,umb
    files=96
    buffers=32
    stacks=9,256
     
    And Change the AUTOEXEC.BAT file to:
    @echo off
    Path=C:\Dos;C:\;
     
    Both files are system and hidden files. 
    Reboot and give it a go

    Post on 3, if you use a USB Flash Drive Boot to it and then move the Bios Switch to 2 update Bios Then Move Switch to 1 Update Bios then POWER OFF YOUR PC. Done

    The third PCI-E slot from the bottom up.  I also RMAed my motherboard because it was having power surges on the USB 3.0 controllers and hub.  The serial number of the board is 1221930779900153.

    NEW BIOS?   JUST IN TIME!   I'm about to finally go under H20 for the first time!  (The last of the parts should ship out to me Monday).  I doubt I will build until Feb 2nd or 3rd - my gal is visiting during the weekend prior.  My PC is where all of my media is.  I am not going to chance that being down when she is in town! 

    I was running a 3820 @ 5.0GHz - It was pretty wonderful other than the fact that I can't load up all 4 cores due to my high VCore (TEMP)  I SOMEHOW made it into windows once @ 5.5GHz but NOTHING would work (understandably).  Not sure how I managed that.

    Well I paid a hefty premium for a pair of powercolor 290x's.   They were a nice bit less than I can find them for now.   This will provide me with MINING coins, insane gaming and winter heat.   The electricity to run full bore would cost me more than the cards in about 16 months (1KW, 24/7)- I was planning to do solar in the fall but my hand is forced to a springtime solar install.   After the Coins drop below a certain profitability point I will switch over to FOLDING @ home.   

    This will provide me with SOME income in the short term (though I don't know how many I will hold on to - I suspect most of them).   It will provide me with "free" heat in my 250Square foot home and if I can get lucky and push those cards far enough....   maybe 500,000PPD Folding (When I include my 3820 @ 5.5Ghz or maybe 6?)    DREAM BIG!   I suspect 450k PPD is a very realistic target.  Like most of my tools or toys these cards and the CPU must be able to survive a journey to hell and back!  

    THANKS EVGA FOR THIS AMAZING BOARD!

    Keep an Eye on the temperatures on your Back Plate of your CPU.
    I have hit 60C and on H20 on the Back Plate. My high and Stable is only 4.9 GHz.
    Best of luck.

    Move the switch to 2 update the Bios then move the switch to number 3 update the Bios then POWER OFF YOUR COMPUTER.
    Then move back Bios Switch back to number 1 and then power back on your computer.
    Also you should update now to 2.07. I updated both my Classified Rigs and had now issues and I like 2.07 over 2.xx

    How are you updating your Bios, Windows or USB Flash Drive with DOS.
    I use only the USB Flash Drive with DOS way.
