Alexandre Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 umm probably not i havnt updated them since i got the board.. good thought.. ill check the site Just asking because depending on the revision of your board (3.0, 2.1 or 2.0) you may need to update your bios to F6 in order to have full support for your CPU. If you have revision 3.0 then there is no need to bios flash (nothing to flash to actually) and it should support your CPU fine but if you have the lower revisions you will need to update.

You trying to flash from OS? I am pretty sure your bios doesn't care whether it is in 64 bit or 32 bit that is more of an OS thing. EDIT: Anyway mate I gtg for now. Hope you work it out Edited March 8, 2011 by Alexandre Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
