| 693636 | 2008-07-31 00:27:00 | Umm, if its back at the shop or whatever now, I would get them to update the BIOS, if its not 1106. As it looks like 1106 fixes video corruption. And this can make a system freeze (with that mobo). This may have been one of the issues, you were seeing. |

| 693637 | 2008-07-31 00:30:00 | Its not back there yet, no point till the new parts arrive. Can you tell me how to check bios version, hopefully it can be done in windows as I cannot restart right now In dxdiag bios is listed as Phoenix - AwardBIOS v6.00PG Does that help? |

| 693638 | 2008-07-31 00:34:00 | In XP try start / all programs / accessories / system tools / system information. It may show under BIOS Version / date. It does on this. I dont know where it is in Vista, I dont use it I wouldnt update the BIOS in Windows tho (if your BIOS isnt 1106) |

| 693639 | 2008-07-31 00:41:00 | BIOS Version/Date Phoenix Technologies, LTD ASUS P5N-T DELUXE ACPI BIOS Revision 1001, 12/03/2008 So it does not look like it has 1106 |

| 693640 | 2008-07-31 00:44:00 | Correct, thats the original BIOS, but not 1106 | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 693641 | 2008-07-31 01:20:00 | OK So it needs a bios update first and foremost from the looks of things. How do I flash the bios? |

| 693642 | 2008-07-31 01:32:00 | XP SHOULD be installed BEFORE Vista. doubt that's any kind of issue you can install em anwywhichway you like with a small amount of fiddling round........ How do I flash the bios? VERY carefully cause if you get it wrong PERMANENTLY dead motherboard....... ask the shop tech to do it...... |

| 693643 | 2008-07-31 01:51:00 | OK so I need to leave that for the tech. I am creating a email to send to him with as much information as I can get. Anything else to add to what we have here so far? (seems to crash a lot when I am typing, just had one, and several last night) |
