Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Must have missed that part.
Wouldn't using a seperate SATA controller in the PCI-e slot be a work around?
I have tried this, but the BIOS of the P5B-VM doesn't support booting from other devices.
I haven't done any overclocking since I first wanted a system doing what it should, then...
A BIOS without overclocking options is crap in every way imo.
Using a Windows tool to overclock sucks ass.
What's the point on overclocking then!? I want BIOS options, not some crappy piece of software. That won't work when I run Linux.
Indeed, better not too spend any money for at least a month now.
If things don't improve, I am rebuilding my current computer case (TJ06) and buy a decent ATX motherboard *sob*.
Yeah, looks like it.
Either it's a motherboard with no PCI lock, decent voltage selections and a useless RAID controller, or it's a motherboard where you have to use a windows tool too overlock (shiver).
Back in the old days (I suddenly feel very old) the motherboards were so much better...
After reading the manual, the BIOS has absolutly no overlocking settings.
You need too use their software utility too overclock it in windows.
So, another crap motherboard imo then.
Next too Windows I also run Linux. There is no such too for linux.
I just want those settings in the BIOS.
The P5B-VM has a max VDIMM of 1.95V.
My GeIL PC6400 2GB Kit works fine on it at 553MHz.
The motherboard is crap. Unless Asus releases a proper BIOS version soon, I am goign too look for something else.
