Oh yeah and I though it was fine for me (see previous post) but I still get the network dropouts, any other ideas anyone????
Nvidia network drivers are crap. Uninstall them and use the Windows drivers.
I tried removing them and windows 7 didn't install it's own drivers (only the display drivers), any ideas? Do I need to restart several times?

How to replace your nVidia Controller to the Microsoft "Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE Controller" which helped in getting better performance benchmark numbers
Step #1... (Device Manager)
Go into Device Manager by way of Start>typing in the Search Box above Start, "Device Manager" > Click on device manager in the box above when it appears.
Step #2
Find and click on Storage Controller where you will find the nVidia installed Controller drivers and right click your mouse button on it.
Step #3
Click on “Update Driver”
Step #4
Choose and click on “Browse” for drivers
Step #5
You will now see two suggestions, one being "Search Automatically" or below that "Browse my computer". Click on “Browse”.
Step #6
Next box, you are met with two selections, one being "Browse" and the next one "Let me pick" and that is the one you select.
Step #7
Next box pop up, you will see "Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE Controller" from Microsoft and this is the one to click on. You will then be required to restart the system then restart again a few moments later. Now you have the Microsoft Controller and not nVidia.

Thanks, I'll give it a go with the network drivers.

OK, the network kept dropping out after rolling to the m$ drivers and then I re-entered in my settings in LAN port configuration (see my previous post) and it seems to work fine for the moment.
Will keep you posted. I know there are others with the same issue.

As usual... They post an update but you can't download the darn files from the links. Every thing times out.
How does one manage to get these damn files?

Did you ever think it is on your end? What browser do you use? Let me guess chrome? use IE or firefox... I use firefox & all three links work!

Haha, no it will not work on the FTW board, it would possibly make your FTW an expensive paperweight! EVGA_JacobF

Oh I see, thank, so is the BIOS in that link the latest version? Also how would I go about checking my current BIOS version, windows is telling me it's Phoenix - AwardBIOS v6.00PG?

The best way to do it is to enter the BIOS "Advanced BIOS Features" and [Disable] the "Full Screen LOGO" if not disabled already... Now when you boot you will see a lot of cool information displayed. On the first screen will be your BIOS release number, ending in an "SZ" number, SZ17 for example. The screen moves quickly but you can stop it at any time by pressing the Pause|Break key on the keyboard.

Ha, I always wondered what that button was for, cool. What else can you use it for? I'm still stable and happy with P09, don't see a reason to upgrade.

so what's the overall verdict on this one? ..might have to try it out
I'm still on P08 because taking 2 daily doses of ex-lax would leave my system more stable than that garbage 09
07 was a real biotch to OC and stabilize as well.. P08's been dreamy from the get go

Does anyone else have a problem with not hearing voice in games (like in steam, etc)???? What is the go with this? should I be using the windows drivers or the realtek drivers? it's really annoying because my mic works fine but I just can't hear other peoples voices. I never bothered to look this one up til now. I've had this issue since going to Windows 7.. Thanks

nevermind, I installed the latest realtek drivers from this site and I can hear those voices that everyone else hears :) plus all the extra Bad Company 2 in-game voices as well (which might start getting annoying :P)

if your asking if you can skip P08 and P09 and install P10 from your current P07 yes you can as P10 contains everything updated from P09 and P08 included .I hope i understood your question and was able to help you.

INSTALL nforce 15.35 may 15, 2009 on Nvidia's web site.
LAN port configuration:
Go to Control Panel -> Device Manager and right-click on the properties of your card in "Network Adapters"
Now Go to the Advanced TAB
Make sure you have these settings (Can someone confirm that these are correct because they seem to be working fine for me):
Sleep on disconnect: enabled
flow control: disabled
interrupt moderation: disabled
ip checksum offload: disabled
jumbo packet: 9014 bytes (this might have no effect for you)
ALL large send offloads: disabled
BOTH low power: enabled
network address: not present
priority & vlan: priority enabled
receive side scaling: disabled
speed/duplex settings: auto
ALL TCP & UDP offloads: disabled
vlan id: 1
ALL wake ons: enabled
also....
DISABLE Apple's Bonjour service and Microsoft's Windows Media Player Network Sharing service.
So far so good for me. Let me know if you have the same success....
I had LAN dropout issues as well, especially downloading large files like games on steam and such. After changing my settings to the above I haven't had any issues any more. Furthermore I went from BIOS P07 to P10 and it works like a charm, on P07 I had freezes when the system was idle, with P10 that hasn't happened yet. So far so good...
