Now this is strange, the infamous problem with the fan is coming and going - without any contribution from my side.

... found a pattern in its behaviour - the fan is starting with every other boot. Strange.

I had the same problem as drfr....I was using flashrom -V -w -f BIOS.ROM
kept getting an error saying I used an extra switch...So I took out -f and got the write/erase is not working yet on your programmer error just like 'drfr' was getting. so then I tried flashrom -w -f and it didn't work for me. Finally It worked with: flashrom -f -w BIOS.ROM I guess for some reason the -f switch has to be in front (strange)...I'm good now though and ready to reboot. To clarify the instructions on Linux Using Ubuntu Live CD (11.04) Have files on flash drive... open terminal sudo apt-get install subversion Ubuntu software center (search libpci) install Linux PCI Utilities (Development files) Now do (in terminal): svn co svn://coreboot.org/flashrom/trunk flashrom cd flashrom make sudo make install navigate to flash drive in terminal: (mine was located at /media/745B-FD7D): cd /media/{your dir} backup old bios sudo flashrom -r bios.bak (will store in curent directory) now sudo flashrom -f -w BIOS.ROM (or whatever you named it) run command again if it doesn't take the first time. Then you are done I have the same issue with the fan running full tilt. I have an adjustable controller I can use for now, but this isn't ideal for overclocking...I want a throttling fan... Be cool if somebody could look into this. It's the CPU fan not the system fan.

OK here is how to fix the fan!
Go into BIOS (DEL) on POST Bios PC Health Status Menu Smart Fan Control Enabled SMART Fan start PWM value around 50 SMART Fan start TEMP 30-35c (THIS WAS TOO HIGH cause fan to spin 4500 RPM) DeltaT1 +3 Fan Slope PWM value 3 or 4 Adjust your shutdown over temp temparture as you please 73 is max for a phenom II x3 so I dropped my temp to 70c/158f If overclocking keep it under 55-60 if you can...Get a bigger cooler if neccessary. Congrats everybody! We are perfect now!!! Now only if somebody can enable the 1000 ethernet instead of 100! This is GREAT!!!!!! Glad I could help a tiny tiny bit at least.

I fell afraid with UNIFLASH, as it does not recognize the motherboard bios, so I tried with winflash, it says that the image size doesn't match the bios size. Even the bios image format is ROM, not BIN as usually award flash utilities use. Can you upload it as BIN? and if possible, test a relatively good proceedment without big bricking risks? Thanks...

The file extension is irrelevant, BIN is normally for the award platform and AMI is normally for the ROM site. You should re-download and ensure the filesize is 1024KB, and ensure you are using the flash procedure we outlined as we too had problems with the other flash utilities.
Thanks, TheWiz
I'll try it again...
just wondering why UNIFLASH didn't recognize my bios, even it won't let me flash from the menu... If I success in flashing, I will feedback the behaviour of the board. Thanks a lot! Just failed the flashing!! UNIFLASH still can't recognize my bios chip, and refuses to flash!!! what can I do? By other way, I've notticed a little difference on version numbers (My board BIOS says 5.26, and my board itself says on BIOS as 6.00, I still thinking my board is this one posted here, but mine is an original Hewlett Packard board with lots of OEM info, and now I'm wondering if there's difference in having an original HP mobo or this post refeers to released-to-selling ECS board.) |
