RGone Posted July 30, 2005 Posted July 30, 2005 Try this exactly and see if cpu is better recognized. Here is the 'official' DFI way of clearing the CMOS: 1. pull power *A/C Power from wall outlet*. 2. pull battery 3. clear cmos jumper for minimum of 30-60 seconds *For Real troublesome systems use 8 hours*. 4. replace cmos jumper to normal position 5. replace battery 6. replace power *A/C Power from wall outlet*. 7. boot to bios and load optimized defaults 8. save and exit 9. boot back to bios and now you can change settings to your liking. *Is what we are trying to get to*. The above is especially true after some unknown boot failure and after a bios flash. RGone... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
QUDERN Posted July 30, 2005 Posted July 30, 2005 I've taken out the power cord, and battery and also cleared the cmos. I'll leave it in this state for about 2 to 3 hours then I'll restart it and see how it goes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharp Posted July 30, 2005 Posted July 30, 2005 Hello, How are you flashing the BIOS? Bootable ISO or directly from a floppy disk? Try this. http://www.dfi-street.com/forum/showpost.p...9&postcount=158 Also make sure that all 4 power cables are plugged into the board. And after the flash, DO NOT LOAD ANY CMOS RELOADED PROFILES Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
QUDERN Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 Hey Sharp, I flashed it with a bootable ISO cause I don't have a floppy drive. I'll be going to get one today. And yes, all 4 power cables are plugged in. I did not load any cmos reloaded files. After flashing I just loaded optimised defaults. I will be trying the way you mentioned with a floppy today. Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
QUDERN Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 I've made the floppy with the above way SHARP mentioned. But when the system starts up and tries to read the floppy it says Non-system disk. Anyone can help me out here ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jadawin Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 I would try several BIOSes, 5/10 and then upwards, just avoid the 7/04 because of the voltage bug. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
QUDERN Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 I've tried everything. Flashed bios 632-3 with floppy that didn't work. I flashed to bios 510-3 and that didn't work as well. Do you guys think I have a dud X2 4400 ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
QUDERN Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 Problem is I don't know if there's something wrong with my X2 4400 or my DFI SLI-DR. Crap Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
