Does anyone know where I can get the P4P800SE 1009 Beta Bios?
I can't seem to find it on the ASUS site.

If someone can provide me the link to the bios that would be great.

ASUS Has BIOS 1008 on their site located here for the ASUS P4P800SE motherboard and that bios DOES support the CT-479 adapter.

The ASUS 1009 BIOS has not been approved and my card failed when running this BIOS. If you do find it pay attention to what you are doing or you will end up with dead cards and boards.

how did that happen? im running the beta now on my board. with the 730 @default volts @2.4ghz. It seem wierd how the release the beta and remove. then asus doesnt release a new bios for p4pse and they release a new one for the p4c and the p4p-vm.. why those two and how come pass up the p4pse. I know we wont get answers but it makes no sense to me.

Thx for the tip. It would seem that a 6x multiplier is 'normal' for this version of the P4C800-E BIOS - I hope ASUS will either fit it or add the option to select a specific multiplier. I have downloaded the ESIT tool and the CPU is really quick at 2Ghz!

There is a new bios out for the ASUS P4P800SE.
Its 1009 beta 003. It allows you to adjust the multiplier.

I have a M 750 and now I'm able to boot at 220FSB at 11 multiplier.
I'm able to up the FSB to 227 to get 2.5Ghz

I can't seem to get pass 2.5Ghz. Anyone else having problems getting pass 2.5 on a M750?

I can't seem to get clockgen to work in ghost mode.
I'm using the P4P800SE motherboard.

I created a save.txt file with the following content:
[CG-ICS952607]
FSB=225
AGP=66

The system would lock up on me when I would run the shortcut using this text file.

Could some point out my mistake?

Yeah I was hoping that someone would help me out with the ghost mode in clockgen. Kind of a pain to have to reset the FSB bus after ever reboot.

For some reason it hangs on me if I use clockgen in ghost mode.

My CT-479 died a couple of days ago, my P4P800-SE seems to be working completely fine though. Don't know why but just stopped POSTing, Though sometimes it wouldn't POST intermiddently but the frequency increased until it just doesn't work anymore.

I was having VCORE issues with it the first day I got it, worked fine for a few hours then bam, started pumping 1.56V to my CPU all the time and I couldn't go below 1.5V in the BIOS. Mine was a rev. 1.01 and I wonder if they have a newer more reliable rev. out. I think some of the early ones have some engineering flaws, possibly all of them if they haven't revised them yet.

BTW whave revision CT-479 did you recieve from Asus?
