It can't boot right after updating the bios, but it states a 'successful' bios update...

Ya how come?? I flash my BIOS many times even use other mobo's BIOS b4.
But dont worry can still send for RMA. Need about 3 weeks and they will send/replace u a new one thumbup.gif dont need to worry as long as no burnt mark.

blaxez.. you didnt update your bios at OC setting rite??... always update bios at default setting otherwise the board might die after bios flash.. just learnt my lesson from my previous mistake...

Your bios went corrupted also? I didn't reset it to the default settings before updating the bios, it went through without problem for 8 times, this is the 1st and the most unlucky update for me ever.

Anyone here using the new nforce 600 series chipset motherboards? I might be getting one soon as I can't bear with the slowness of RMA process. I'm still doubting the OC capability of those boards.

You're luckier than me, at least you have a extra board to bear with. For me, I got to stick with my old P3 rig for the coming 3 weeks or maybe more. cry.gif
