BIOS mod for ASUS C90S for 1066Mhz Wolfdale!

[King of Interns]

Hey guys I need some help. I got my E7500 CPU today and went to download and burn Ken's ISO file for the BIOS and nothing shows up when I try to burn it. I am using Deepburner and Daemon Tools Light to download, unzip and burn but its not working.

Does anyone know if the file doesnt work right anymore or am I using the wrong tools to do this.

Thanks Guys!

Simply download it and then use nero to burn the ISO

Nope - no dice - We're getting the same results either way.
The .ISO file burns a disc with 1847296 bytes used, but the CDFS filesystem is EMPTY!?
I can (virtually) mount the .iso image with DaemonTools, and burn it via Nero or DeepBurner, and the result is the same, and empty CD with 1847296 bytes used (no hidden/system files to display either).

Further, the disc will not boot on the C90S...

More HELP please...!

It does work, I've got a E7500 a month ago and it is nicelly running.

1/ You dl,
2/ You unzip => you've got a ISO
3/ You burn a cd, choose option to burn ISO,
4/ You have to boot on the cd => check and set your bios,
5/ If you can't boot on the cd, at start-up of your C90S press on escape key. It will give you a drop list where you choose how to start.
6/ At prompt A:\ just send "update"
7/ That's all.

Awsome, thank you very much she is running great at 2.93, arctic silver 5 and she is only running at 63C at full load. Now if only zepto would get back to me onthe GPU.

Don't forget to have a look at GPU's t°, because the fans won't spin much now.
You can warm your CPU to have more airflow by using clockgen.

Ha ha yup. Overclock to 3.2ghz to get those fans spinning once again.

She running great at 3.2, wierd but im only getting a 3DMARK score of 3127 with newest drivers with my 8600m GT 512 ddr2 shouldnt that be higher. Zapto finally got back to me though so 9600 soon. Any ideas though on how to improve my score?

Hmm that is odd. With same setup my C90S achieved 4500 points with GPU clocked at 505/1375/488.

What clock speeds do you have your 8600M GT at. Even at stock speeds the score should be higher than 3500! Make sure nothing is running in backround when you do it too.

Your CPU is oc, and I think your GPU isn't. That explain this poor score, is it?
Before you have this E7500, I suppose you used TurboGear which oc both CPU and GPU.

Try RivaTuner ? But I don't know if it works (don't work on my 9600 with mod bios).
Or EVGA ? To dl more easily here. (don't work on my 9600 with mod bios).

You must uninstall TurboGear VGA utillity (just VGA), dissable powermizer, and use rivatuner (worked for me with the 8600m GT) or Ntune from NVidia, wich basically adds the option to OC on your control panel.



Is there a list of new compatibility with the modded bios 1003??

Thank you guys
