like this?

1T or 2T better?

In order to update BIOS you have to have a flash program.
Usually it is supplied by the motherboard manufacturer and
is available from their website. Along with the latest
version of the BIOS for the motherboard in a file, usually xxx.BIN although it may be called something else.

However in almost every case they will advise you to boot into DOS and run their loader program to flash/update the BIOS.

One way to do it:

Copy their loader and BIOS update to a blank floppy.

Make sure that your BIOS is set to boot from A: first.

Put in a bootable DOS diskette in Drive A: and boot.

Swap out the DOS diskette, put in the BIOS update disk
and run the update program.

There's also another beta bios for the NF7/S from tictac here.

Bios Version : D27
Bios name : Taipan 0.1 EB ED

Change Log :
- 2T Timing


Looks like it's based on the latest Abit bios v2.7:

BIOS: nf7d27.exe

Bios Issue Date:2004/11/22
Mirror Site: 1 2
BIOS ID:2.7

1. Updated SATA ROM V4.2.5.0.
2. Updated CPU micro code.
3. BIOS compile date: 11/22/2004


Interesting - I'm gonna compare this one with the D26 Mantaray XT soon.

I wonder, apart from "how to update/flash bios", can we discuss the bios performance ere? I mean in terms of overclocking. Infact any modded bios, lazy to create more thread and don wanna waste bandwidth and couldn't find the previous thread disscussion about the modded NF7-S bios. Thread starter can or not?

So T0|\|`/, hows the performance? compared to the D26 Mantaray XT? U're using the 2T right?

Y.B. Tan Sri CEO, so far most of tictac's bios user is OK with the bios, infact they even gain better performance when using the bios, but not sure bout the beta version.
I've tried with the AN7 modded bios by tictac a few months ago and gain a few MHz improvement (with standard bios with a mobile cpu, the memory is a bit reluctant to go above 215MHz but with modded bios >230Mhz is a jiff).

regarding the cpu micro code, if the bios is based on the ori abit's latest micro code than the same micro code is used for the moded bios. Need to refer to the ori bios microcode description to confirm wheter it support sempron or not.

1T is better, but depends on what ram and mobo u're using... on an NF2 mobo + double sided ram, i'll recomend using 2T for stability and greater clock speed.

1T of course will give better result without doubt.
2T is a significantly slower than 1T in AMD64 system because of integrated memory controller. Xcrue, normally, for us to understand better the actual behavior of the RAM, there is a program called Sisoft Sandra. No matter what settings that you set, you can keep an eye on whether it improves or degrade performance by looking at the memory bandwidth.

Hope my suggestion helps though...

it's depend on your psu 3.3v rail.

I'm using acbel 450w, after modding, i manage to get 3.26v since the 3.3v rail reading is 3.3v smile.gif

Oh, you did get above 251Mhz with mantaray... what chips is your ram? single/double sided? A lot of the mantaray's users reported a good result with the bios, i dunno cause now i'm trying with the d27 3D fire (2T).. still burning in though.

Actually xcrue what are you trying to achieve?

1. Highest GHz
2. Highest Benchmark score

If Highest GHz.. i'd suggest u try loosing you ram timings and is your ram one sided or two sided ram (i'm not familiar with corsair's) 1 sided (as in you chips oni on one side of the ram pcb) will work great on 1T and vice versa..

If highest bechmark score/highest fsb.. well.. tight timings at high fsb, then again you bh6's is oni fed with max Vdimm of 2.9, sad to say but it's either you do a Vdimm mod or OCZ DDR booster.

Do take note that if using the D27 3D fire bios, you'll need to do an L12 hard mod for your board cause the L12 soft mod is not included with the bios.. (correct me if i'm wrong tictac sweat.gif )

Try 1T, double sided rams work best with 2T on an NF2 chipset... but benchies scores're a bit whoosy(the 2T one).

well xcrue.. which L12 mod you want? The soft mod L12 or the wire mod L12.. most of tictac's modded bios are L12 soft mod embedded.. except for the D27 modded bios which required the wire mod... just be vewy-vewy carefull when doing the wire mod eventhough it's look easy.

Well it was both the D26 Mantaray's and D27 3D fire's bios by Tictacs.. my max fsb is 245 (with L12 wire mod of course) but i've got some temp issue which causes instability when priming.

yours is the single sided ram, try loosen up the timings when oc'ing then oni tweak to the tightest stable one. Wheter must mod the L12 or not mebbe my post in this thread can give you the idea here.Click here :Should mod L12 or Not?

eh, sorry ah, I thought this thread had died after almost a month of no-replies.

To be honest, I kinda liked the Taipan after running stable at 2505Mhz, but the temps were worrying so I've dropped it down to 2405. Seeing this thread again has reminded me to retest the Mantaray and 3dfire (if I managed to d/l it before the board went down).

For burning in try cpu-burn in.. download it here Click CPU Burn-In Page. when running the burn in s/ware, tick disable error checking for maximum heat generation, burn in at least 5 hrs.. and, good luck. thumbup.gif

I've the same problem as you, cant get 230fsb with d27 3dfire. but for others such as d27 taipan, d26 speed fire, d25 3dfire, i can get at least 250fsb.

so which one is da best mod bios for NF7/NF7-s?

i heard that  d26 black/xt mantary is good! so how?

how far can locked barton 2500+ multp 11.0 can go without L12 mod? can it reach at least 230 fsb? wink.gif

i think for me 220x11 is my max,,, coz max temp while burning 3dmark2003/05/games = 57 celc!
*
L12 mod can be done bu pinmod anyway...
L12 mod for sure will reach for FSB.. tested before =)

by the way as for the rest the tictac's D27 3Dfire does not include the soft L12 mod.. you have to do the wire mod your self.

Leave CPU INTERFACE ON
u get higher memory bandwidht with it and better performance in super pi and overall system performance

if you turn it off, you get higher fsb...but most of the time, lower clock can already achieve what you achieve at higher fsb with CPU interface on.

make sure its on la
i can do 245 with cpu interface. but when i use 230 mhz with cpu interface on, my sandra memory benchmark is higher than the 245( Cpu interface off) tongue.gif at the same timing thumbup.gif

Tictac, why u didnt try come out a new bios tat will report the processor in PR rating? Sometime when other ppl c 2.4ghz Axp, they say it slower den their 3000+ . >_< Since u can change the name for mobile Ahtlon to AXP-M sure u can do it. ^^ My 2nd soltek mobo bios can report in PR. I wonder why abit didnt do it.

if ya follow it exactly like the guide, it won;t work...i've tried shading the resistor or watever it is wif a few stroke using a 2b pencil but nothing happens...then i tried 10-20 strokes only 0.05v increment then when i cover the whole thing with led it's slightly higher than wat i wanted (2.1v max) and i hafto repeat the process for quite a lot of times b4 i manage to tweak it according to wat i wanted

NORMAL question( nothing to do with any error,,,)

can anyone tell me how to reset the cmos (BIOS setting)

- without to set jumpers
- without to take out and put back the cmos battery

my mobo is NF7 plain with D26 mantarays XT 2t bios

BTW: i'm just too lazy to open the pc casing! doh.gif

i don't smell any burn. but then i think i reset cmos too many times. i was doing memtest and it kept failing and a reset in cmos is needed. then i decided to flash back to original bios and forget the clocking. then this problem occurred. i'm waiting for my friend's nf7-s to do hot flash. btw , is it the same bios chip?

if the bios file is corrupted,

Is there anyway to maximize the potential of a mobo? Mine seems to max out at 225Mhz. Anything over, Prime95 fails at exactly 7 minutes. Always exactly 7 Minutes.

@ Dead__Man

you did the vcore fluctuation pencil trick, right? i just wonder that have you faced the problem that cant get over 1.85v after doing the trick? because once I set the vcore over 1.85v, the mobo cant boot and the beep sound will be heard.

@ cubchai

yes, disable APIC will give more fsb. But for my case, the extra 3mhz fsb cant cover back the lower bandwidth.

I have an unlocked CPU, so I just change the multi when aiming for FSB.

@gsan
I have never tried anything over 1.7v. My Athlon, though good rating, is a power hog. Load at 52c on 1.675 with a Thermalright SI-97, and that's nighttime. Sometimes during the day it can go up to 55c.

i've forgotten. usually after flashing i have to reconfigure the bios again.
i jsut checked out the price if i order a bios chip from abit-usa thru a fren. ranging from $27-$110, time from 4-6weeks for $27 and $110 for about a week. some sites charge $20+, delivery time 10-14 days.

before that cannot,,,,,, even if i feed it with 2.9V and low fsb

now is okay,,,,, can do 2-2-2-11 2.8v at max stable fsb 230 x 11 ..

but i just use 210 coz the temp for 230 is too high,,, reach 57+

now very happy biggrin.gif

that's nothing with the bios, psu is the main reason. before i'm using enlight 350w, once i set vcore to 2.0v, the pc must automatic shutdown. but since change to acbel 450w, i can get more than that.

yes, i faced it before. this problem occure due to the either SB or NB overheating. before adding the heatsink on SB, once the fsb over 248, my mouse n keyboard will hang but the mp3 still playing. but since adding heatsink on SB, this problem can overcome. smile.gif

1T give more bandwidth score whereas 2T give more fsb since it's come with some loosing setting.

Command Rate CMD (1/ 2) (Command Rate, MA 1T/2T Select)
Number of clock cycles needed to address the memory module and the memory chip with the desired data zone. If your memory banks (slots) are full to capacity, you will have to raise this rate to two, resulting in a considerable drop in performance.

http://www.obm.co.nz/obmnew/guides/ddrram.htm

DRAM command rate specifies the time to wait after a chip select before activate and read can be started. It is usually suggested that you apply the lowest command rate that your RAM and motherboard can run stable with. The lesser the value, the quicker the memory controller be able to send commands out. On the other hand, at higher frequencies it might be crucial to raise the command rate latency in order to get your system at super stable state.

Want to ask sifu here, which bios is good for CH-5 ram for NF7v2 board???

Also for CH-5 how high the FSB that it can reach? I'm using 2-3-2-11 timing, is there any other timing better than this?

Do the 3.3v vdimm mod on ur nf7 and away you go with your overclocking. If I'm not mistaken, try going for Trats bios. It worked well for me smile.gif

load optimal in bios got 166fsb .... is 50% success tongue.gif da most easy to detect .... if u can pass 240+ without doin wire mod that means soft L12 mod is inside dat bios smile.gif

nothing beats wire mod L12 tongue.gif those soft L12 won't go as high FSBs as the hard 1 smile.gif

If detect as 166 when clear to optimal, does that mean the L12 success force the proc to Fsb166 or Fsb200? IF fsb 200 , y it didnt show fsb 200 when we clear it to optimal value?

nono... i mean...
i already did the L12 wire mod, but i dunno it success or not....
i just load the optimal in bios, and i got 166fsb, so does it mean I success? maybe it's due to the soft L12 mod.... coz i dunno for the soft mod, izzit also same when load the optimal in bios also got 166fsb.

Want to ask u guys a question abt temp. I have AXP 1800+ and o/c it 2300mhz(1.875v), and my idle temp is 59C. This's becuz I let the CPU fans runs at 5v while I'm doing normal stuffs like surfing.

My question is that is 59C temp too high?

AFAIK, double sided won't run properly at 1T in nF2 mobos. Maybe it will run at lower frequency(166?tongue.gif) but 2T is the only way so far.

bro,,, the max temp for athlon xp is around 80-90 C

but in your case sufing with 59 C,,, thats too high,,,,

BTW:59 C with full load of playing game that's normal. and surfing must be around 40-50 C,,, and we are talking about cpu temp.

what is the max Vcore for AXP clock to 200x11 ? i using 1.8V, it come with blue screen then restart, then i try pump to 1.825V, it still come with blue screen when run prime95 then restart? why like this? while i using 194X11 Vcore = 1.8 . it stable for me.. why when i pump the clock to 200X11 then it come out blue screen when i run prime95? izit mean my Max clock my CPU? when i run prime95, then temp is 60'c ...

What happen?

i using thermaltake butterfly purepower 480W .
i already try it now, when i using 1.775v with 195x11, test with SP2004 , is ok.
when i trying pump more go to 196 or 197 or 198 X 11 ( all tested ) with 1.775V , when running prime95 or sp2004, just around 5 to 10min it will come out blue screen and restart. then i think is Vcore not enough, then try with 1.8V it still the same with blue screen and restart, then try with 1.825v it still the same, then i try pump the Vdimm to 2.7v , it still the same with blue screen and restart? why like that? izit that the max for my CPU?
( my temp when run SP2004 and prime95 is 57'c 195x11 )

Yup. it 2.9v in the bios, but it will have 0.1v Overvolt on the vdimm. So it 3v actually.

wrong,,, its 0.2v,,,,, so if it set to 2.9=3.1,,,2.8=3.0,,,2.7=2.9


BTW: kaneboy85 try change your bios to mantarays xt.

something to ask:

Row active delay = more lower better or highest better?
RAS-to-Cas delay = more lower better or highest better?
Row-precharge Delay = more lower better or highest better?
CAS Latency Time = more lower better or highest better?

all also lower better

but the row active delay u would like to use 11
coz it gives be best ram bandwidth

The max temp is 80-90, and ur temp is 59c, infact ur 59c is not on die temp. I bet on die temp it already almost 80c. There is a way to calculate on die temp if using SocketA with sandra. Anyone pls post ur sandra detail bout ur CPU temp reading here? So i can explain the way to get on die temp. I already migrate from socketA so i cant take the sceenshot.

pls give me opinion...

I just tested my RAM and CPU overclock. what i notice is my MAX CPU clock just can go to 195x11 1.775V, and My RAM just can go to 218MHZ DDR436 only.

which one i need to choose more better? highest CPU clock speed with 195X11 (2145MHZ) 1.775V , RAM just only 198MHZ ( if not wrong ) coz my CPU was lock, cannot change the multiple so how i change my RAM ratio, it still will over 218MHZ. if over it will cannot boot into bios then need reset bios.

second one is, i choose my RAM 218MHZ DDR436, then my CPU clock speed just can 181x11 (2004.6MHZ), cannot more then 181, if more cannot boot into bios also need reset.

I dont know why my CPU cannot go more the 195, if more when running SP2004 and prime95, will come out blue screen and restart. i try to pump more vcore, it still the same.

So which one i choose is more better? High CPU clock speed with Low RAM speed, or Low CPU clock speed with high RAM speed?????

Pls give me opinion..

relax la bro. u're messing up your and my mind.

-okay first get the best stable setting,,,, then bench
-next if the setting is stable try the next setting

REMEMBER ONE THING AT THE TIME.

i suggest u try with fsb and vcore first. play with it until u get the most stable setting. then go with ram setting.

if 195, my my ram cannot go over 200MHZ, if 1:1 just 196 something like that, if try other ratio, it too far different make it cannot boot up... My multiplier cannot change so i cannot ajust it...

Even if ur ram running at DDR500 or DDR600, ur FSB only 195, ur ram will force to stay at DDR390. The FSB is the bottle, and the ram is the juice or water. The bottle have only max capasity of 195mL, den only 195x2mL can stay in the bottle. The rest will overflow. Understand the concept?

A question here for NF7... anybody know how to get boot device selector? I mean any key for activate that can select which device to boot first instead getting to the bios and set the first boot device. This is useful for updating bios to boot from floppy so no need to go to bios and set the boot first device and then get to bios again to set another... know what i mean? One resource said that u press Ctrl+Alt+F1 but its not working...

Thanks.

A question here for NF7... anybody know how to get boot device selector? I mean any key for activate that can select which device to boot first instead getting to the bios and set the first boot device. This is useful for updating bios to boot from floppy so no need to go to bios and set the boot first device and then get to bios again to set another... know what i mean? One resource said that u press Ctrl+Alt+F1 but its not working...

Thanks.

Nope, this is about the only thing I dislike about the NF7 - you have to go into BIOS to change the first boot device if you wanna boot off floppy or CDROM. Sucks big time.

I second that. It lets me run my RAM and CPU at lower voltages, compared to the D27 Taipan I was using earlier.

Couldn't really tell. My Geil bluerams were crap anyway, so couldn't oc FSB by much.

What I noticed was, with the same BIOS mult/FSB/RAM/voltage settings, the temps reported by D27 Taipan were higher than D26 Mantaray by 3 -5 deg. ohmy.gif

It's the same. All the modded BIOS I have been using are NF7-S BIOSes. If you check Abit's website, the source of the BIOS file for the NF7 and the NF7-S are the same.

Check OCForums.com, they don't have separate sections for the NF7 and NF7-S, because they are all the same. smile.gif

Maybe you have flashed a v1.2 NF7 BIOS to your V2.0 motherboard?

Make sure any modded bios you get is for NF7-M only and not for other mobo types. I say this cos on Abit's site the BIOSes for NF7-S 2.0 is totally different from NF7-M. Meaning if you flash non-NF7-M bios on your mobo, bye bye mobo sweat.gif

Make sure any modded bios you get is for NF7-M only and not for other mobo types. I say this cos on Abit's site the BIOSes for NF7-S 2.0 is totally different from NF7-M. Meaning if you flash non-NF7-M bios on your mobo, bye bye mobo sweat.gif

wah!!! thank you for telling me this. notworthy.gif

You need another computer with the exact same mobo. More details courtesy of Adrian Wong.
QUOTE
However, the benefits of hot flashing may outweigh the risks. If your motherboard BIOS chip becomes corrupted, hot flashing allows you to revive the chip by replacing the corrupted BIOS software with a new BIOS image. Remember, once your BIOS becomes corrupted, you cannot boot up your computer. Therefore, the conventional BIOS flashing method cannot be used. If you cannot boot up the computer, you cannot load up the BIOS flash utility.

This is where hot flashing comes in. Hot flashing circumvents the booting problem by using another computer to boot up. The corrupted BIOS chip is then transplanted into the computer (while it is still running) and updated with an uncorrupted BIOS image. This revives what was, for all intents and purposes, a dead BIOS chip. The BIOS chip can then be returned to the original motherboard to allow the computer to function once again.

Of course, you will need another system with a motherboard that supports the same BIOS chip. But if you have access to such a computer and are not squeamish about swapping BIOS chips with the computer running, you can save yourself a lot of time and money.


Forgot to add: as an alternative, why not email Abit to ask whether they sell BIOS chips flashed to the correct version for your mobo. Some manufacturers offer this kinda service...

i actually have done hot flash to my Nf7-s v2.0 (after carelessly flashed it with nf7-s v1.0 sweat.gif ) . If you have a friends that have any Nf7 series mobo you can do it to flash it( in my case, i'm using nf7-M mobo). but first you have to buy a ic clipper for the purpose to pull out the bios( the bios chip is quite tough to remove so you have a ic clipper to remove the chip. actually you have to do some modding to clip so it will reach the base of the bios chip). power on your friends mobo until it boot to dos. remove the bios and put your bios. and flash it. do flash using cdrw instead of floppy. it just that simple( and in reality it should be a little complx) good luck thumbup.gif.
and if you're living in my living area, i'm surely can help. huhuhu.

no,it's not that hard. sometime using wrong bios and the floppy is faulty. using cdr is more safer than floppy.

Hi guys ,

Need a little help , I just changed to this mobo. Sucessfully winflashed to D26 Mantaray XT 2T. I'm running stable with a pair of KVR BT-D43 @ DDR443 @ 2.8 vdimm | 3-4-4-8 timings. The problem is I can't seem to push my processor frequency higher. I'm running a 2400+ Athlon XP Thoroughbred B0 with 0244WPBW steppings @ Stock. If I'm not wrong all processors before 0438 are able to unlock multipliers. Can anyone teach me what I should do to push my processor higher ? What's the difference between an L12 sofmod / L3 bridge unlock / L5 ? I find all these abit confusing . My intention is to hit 200 FSB like everyone else is doing on their boards. e.g. 200x10 . Is this possible with my processor ? If it is I would appreciate tons of help.


Would greatly appreciate the help guys notworthy.gif

I'd just remember, when first got my nf7s rev 2, after assembling everything can switch on but no sound no screen no nothing, tried almost everything, change cpu, vga, psu, clean underware etc. then someone told me (sorry can't remember who) try just 1 stick of ram then try a diffn't stick... then voila it lives.

They will run 220mhz no problems @ 3-4-4-8. Processor is AMD Athlon XP-M @ 2200 / 1.65v. Any bios other bios which willow allow me to go higher ?

Any feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks notworthy.gif

With some mod. bios like D27 3D fire, you have to softmod the L12 in order to get higher fsb.

bro its for all except BARTON!

"""
Mobile / TBred L12 Mod. So now you have got all our hardware and determined you have a good OCing mobo i.e. 220+fsb. The next thing we have to do is the L12 mod by wire trick. This is for the folks running the Tbred 133 cpu's and the 133 Mobile cpu's. THIS IS NOT FOR BARTON core cpu's just for the TBred/Mobile cpu's. If you have a Barton and your hardware & mobo are capable, then you should easily go well past the 220FSB. The L12 mod for TBred/Mobile is done simply by inserting a 1 cm strand of telephone wire into 2 holes in the cpu socket, bend it in the shape of a U and insert it in holes that are marked in the picture below. Blue markings at the lower left of the image of CPU socket

2T is slower than 1T by 15-17%. That's y u achieved highest fsb on 2T compare to 1T. If u benchmark, let's say, 220 fsb at 1T to a 220 fsb at 2T, 2T will loose surely. 2T need around 235-240 fsb to match the result of 1T. So, if u aiming for highest bandwidth, better go for 1T ( usually bios modder name it without CPC in the filename). If u're aiming for higher stability, then, go for 2T. I'm not saying with 1T it's not stable. Just look here, from lyn sandra overclocking result,

7. HydefK - 3955 PTS - Twinmos CH5 UTT @ 11-2-2-2 @ 1T @ 255 MHZ @ 3.3 VDIMM
8. kelvin_hata - 3954 PTS - Corsair PC3200 CH5 @ 11-2-3-2 @ 2T @ 265 MHZ @ 3.3 VDIMM

even at 265@2T, 1T at 255 still win. smile.gif

just my 0.5 cent.

Abit off topic here, collin, from ur sig, ur bt-d43, ur' running 3.3v? wah... from the official whitepaper, D43 operating volt is 2.5v ~ 2.7v onli. Y u pump so much volt? at ur mem timing, using 2.7v-2.8v oso can, unless u wan them to run 2-2-2-11 or 2.5-2-2-11 ( onli if they capable lah ). Better lowered ur ram voltage.

Thanks for the tip, but the reason I'm doing this is because my NF7 can't take high FSB speeds (I don't know why, it tends to crap out on me), and my Sempron is reaching it's limits. I know D43s are for FSB, not timings, but let's just say that I'm trying a different approach. biggrin.gif

So, I did a few tests and I found that I could lower down a timing by feeding 3.3v to my D43s at low FSB speeds. So why not?

Nice to see that you are lucky with your D43s, satanhead2003. smile.gif

If you overclock and set cpu interface on and your pc survives what ever fsb u get, there will be a noticibale difference in sandra memory benchies and overall benchies ie 3dmark and pcmark.

if u set to disable, it will use the stable parameters and less aggresive which sucks

if your pc did not boot up, meaning your pc is not stable in overclock situations. Imho try setting your system to default and change fsb and timings to suit 200 mhz first.
see if boot, if yes then slowly increase with cpu interface on.

it will be better i tell u

if disable cpu interface should be better stabilty

coz it not using the oced fsb parameter
yup some ppl does! lol

me using kingston valueram 3x512 ddr400 hynix d-43 chip!

doing 2-2-2-11 with 2.9V

cool!

what fsb is that?
and btw what bios are u using?
theres one bios from that dude that created the manta rays...that allow u to hit insanely high fsb's and stable but the benchmarks would lower eventho u hit tight timings and stuff.
forgot edi what bios....cpc on and cpc off if im not mistaken. Always get the CPC ON ones....those are the real performance. CPC off will let u hit crazy speeds but in sandra memory benchies..u can see whats the real difference between cpc on and off smile.gif

I thought upping the Vagp to increase stability only works for the P4 chipsets? I tried upping the voltage before, but I don't get any increase in stability or overclocking.

i see, i will try it out, but i seems weired doesnt passing memtest means that the configuration is stable? Furthermore, i'm using 2T and imho 220mhz on 2-2-2-11 is not quite a big push.

it's the memory i believe that cause the problem as there are indication in the war3 error log
200 mhz it runs fine and 220 mhz it crashes doesnt sound like a video problem to me

i think i know my problem now !!

from the manual it seems the mobo needs a 350 watt power supply for a heavily loaded pc...

i'm running 300 watts... so thats why it beeps.... i think....

and sometimes the screen flicker, maybe its due to the lack of power...

now have to search for a new PSU....

any reccomendation...

some say enermax, some say CM but i also dunno... hehe.....
