			<description><![CDATA[Hello, I know this board is old but just wanted to see if anyone could check the BIOS to verify it can accept this CPU<br />
The Gigabyte website states it can support it but unfortunately it seems it does not<br />
It recognizes the CPU on boot but when trying to install Windows or Linux it crashes<br />
I've tested the CPU in another system and it works fine, swapped memory, Video, hard drives, no go<br />
<br />
one thing that seems really strange is that the file size is different<br />
Downloaded file from Gigabyte website is 486.6kb<br />
extracted file ma69vms2.f10 is 524kb<br />
extracted bin is 131kb<br />
<br />
Maybe I extracted the file incorrectly?<br /><!-- start: postbit_attachments_attachment -->

			<description><![CDATA[Could someone help me please?<br />
<br />
Recently I had a 300GB SATA-150 (Maxtor DiamondMax 10) fail on me, so I bought a 1000GB SATA-300 (Seagate Barracuda 7200.12) drive to replace it with. The problem I am having is the system hangs while detecting the SATA drive (before the XP OS boots). It recognizes the drive model # but just it hangs when it attempts to identify the drive size (i.e 1000GB).<br />
<br />
I suspect itÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s a motherboard BIOS issue. My SATA controller is built into the motherboard and figure itÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s the SATA-150 controller having issue with a SATA-300 drive. However, my motherboard manufacturer has abandoned any future bios updates. So, I went to the SATA controllersÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ website and found the current BIOS update. But, I canÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t figure out how to incorporate it into my motherboard bios.<br />
<br />
Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	I'm using Gigabyte GA-8INXP motherboard with <a href="http://america.giga-byte.com/FileList/BIOS/motherboard_bios_ga-8inxp_f5.exe" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">F5 </a>(latest) bios.<br />
Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	It has an onboard SATA-150 Silicon Image Sil 3112A SATALink Controller (current bios version is 4.1.36C with the latest SiI 3112 BASE driver version 1.3.68.2).<br />
Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	I'm trying to use a 1TB SATA-300 (Seagate Barracuda 7200.12) in BASE configuration with jumper setting forced to SATA-150 mode.<br />
Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	The new SiI3112: SATA BIOS is <a href="http://www.siliconimage.com/support/searchresults.aspx?pid=63&amp;cat=15&amp;os=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">v4.2.84</a><br />
If someone (Spinner?) could put together the F5 bios with the latest SiI 3112A BASE bios, I would be very grateful.<br />
<br />
thanks.]]></description>

It recognizes the drive model # but just it hangs when it attempts to identify the drive size (i.e 1000GB).<br />
<br />
I suspect itÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s a motherboard BIOS issue. My SATA controller is built into the motherboard and figure itÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s the SATA-150 controller having issue with a SATA-300 drive. However, my motherboard manufacturer has abandoned any future bios updates. So, I went to the SATA controllersÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ website and found the current BIOS update. But, I canÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t figure out how to incorporate it into my motherboard bios.<br />
<br />
Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	I'm using Gigabyte GA-8INXP motherboard with <a href="http://america.giga-byte.com/FileList/BIOS/motherboard_bios_ga-8inxp_f5.exe" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">F5 </a>(latest) bios.<br />
Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	It has an onboard SATA-150 Silicon Image Sil 3112A SATALink Controller (current bios version is 4.1.36C with the latest SiI 3112 BASE driver version 1.3.68.2).<br />
Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	I'm trying to use a 1TB SATA-300 (Seagate Barracuda 7200.12) in BASE configuration with jumper setting forced to SATA-150 mode.<br />
Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	The new SiI3112: SATA BIOS is <a href="http://www.siliconimage.com/support/searchresults.aspx?pid=63&amp;cat=15&amp;os=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">v4.2.84</a><br />
If someone (Spinner?) could put together the F5 bios with the latest SiI 3112A BASE bios, I would be very grateful.<br />
<br />
thanks.]]></content:encoded>
