Nice! Where's the updated raid rom, though? Or is it there? I have E762 and the BIOS is not linked yet...

That is one way, but usually just holding down the power button will do the trick.

Does this cover the E-758-A1? (I don't see an A1 in there. but it might be a given) And does this fix the double boot issue?

I skipped everything since 64, and I'm gonna try out Turbo Performance...so we shall see if my 4.3GHz OC holds up. Not a board designer, so I still don't quite understand what IOH Clock Skew does.
