BTW - Still on P07 and everything works fine @ 3500MHz so no bios update for me.

Hi I need Help with the USB Flash method. My Problem is when I type in all the correct commands after booting to the program I get an error message to the effect that the correct file is not found. I have fallowed the instruction to the letter and typed in this exactly. ( adwflash NF79P10.bin / sn / cc / cd /wb ) and I get a missing file message and I know it's there so what do you think is wrong? Thanks.

any one get better stability from P08 to P10?

Not that I know what I am doing when I overclock my machine but with P10 I hardly crash my machine! I can't remember when I had to reset the Bios to get the system back up and running like I did with P08.

your not the only one that has had problems with using a USB. I gave up and flashed it with a portable USB floppy drive. Which in principle is the same thing. I did not try using the floppy drive file. Maybe that will be named correctly.

NF79_P10.exe  works
NF79_P10.iso   works
NF79_P10.bin   Broken displays following error when clicked on FF .
550 CWD failed. "/bios/NF79_P10.bin": directory not found.

Hi!
 
Can somebody please tell me which revision of the Nvidia raid Rom is included in the P10 bios?

@thunderhorse - Please start a new thread and fill out a BIOS template with your current settings and include your RAM recommended voltage.  Are you running 8GB of RAM or 4GB?  Additionally, your sig still shows BIOS version P06.

Is this Update for the 790i FTW Digital as well?

i want to flash the newest bios version to my
P/N 132-ck-nf79-a1 wich is NF79P10.bin
cause it s having trouble on RAM timings OCZ Ram
 
tried eveything did bios updates 100x as i am i pc reseller
 
Problem is that the bios is not accepted in awdflash ..
"the programs part number does not match with..."
Current Bios is 12/12/08 132-ck-n79-6A61 MB02
tried AWDFlash with right syntax /sn / cc /cd /wb
 
tried uniflash2.0b05 -->
this one says bios seems to be protected but; there is no such thing in Bios settings or any Jumper on the board or is there !
 
i resettet the cmos via Jumper and software (uniflash)
 
the only method left is to Programm the SST-Flashrom with an external Progger ?
 
 
 
 
 

if your using this EVGA bios on a EVGA mobo you own call EVGA toll free support.
 
888.881.EVGA (3842) M-F between the hours of 9AM-5:30PM PST.
 
Forums is a secondary support forum ,if you want direct fast customer service calling direct is obliviously the optimal method as monitoring thousands of threads for particular questions is impossible for any company .
Also note The 790 is known to have major issues with OCZ memory since its launch.Its something on OCZ's side as a multitude of other vendors memory works just fine .Have you tried the other methods of flashing mentioned in the first post?I have done both USB and CD/DVD bios updates on the 790 with no issue.

Do you have a prebuilt/custom built rig?

Hi I've been getting lots of lockups lately with my 790i and tried updating the BIOS using a CD. 
I am in AwardBIOS Flash Utility right now. but its been the same thing for a while now.
it says:
For 132-CK-NF79-6A61MB02C-000 Date: 09/10/2008
Flash Type-
File Name  to Program:
 
Message: Please Wait!
 
its been at that for the past ten minutes, I'm not sure if that is normal or not, but I will keep waiting because I'm afraid of ending the update prematurely and bricking the motherboard.

I got it working now. Everything appears to be working fine.
Hopefully this solves the random lockup issues I've been having since I upgraded my motherboard.

JacobF, are there any plans for releasing 790 Ultra P11 BIOS with official support of dual channel DDR3 4GB sticks?
 
I think this BIOS might require some fine tuning for running such sticks with 1T command rate at high clocks above 1800MHz. seems the sticks can do that easily, but BIOS (memory controller) has some issues with running 1T CR above 1733MHz.
 
I am currently running 2x4GB Mushkin Enhanced Blackline sticks (996990 8GB kit) with CL8 timings (2T command rate) at 1.65V at 1800MHz.
 
On the other hand I can run the very same sticks, with the very same memory voltage at 1T command rate and CL7 timings (p1p2 enabled) up to 1733MHz ... but it seems I cannot run 1T above that speed no matter how I loosen the memory timings (tried up to CL9). It either won't boot or will insta-freeze.
 
Would be sweet if new BIOS version was released allowing wider memory compatibility at higher clocks and tighter memory settings!
