I have Gigabyte 7N400Pro2 rev2.0, and the bios FJ modded by Tmod wiht the latest bios for sil 3515 4.3.47. If i flash the new bios,(that i guess has not the newest sata bios) will the 4.3.47 sata bios remain, or it will be reflashed with the oldone?

    It will be reflashed with the old one. Find attached the FK bios revision for your board, modded with the latest SATA controller BIOS.

    No. .FK is what it is supposed to be. Flash it as it is.

    Cheers mate.

    I didn't quite understand what you said mate. Are you saying the voice audio message that informs you the results of the POST memory test isn't working after the flash?

    If so, it's probably that your BIOS settings were reset when you flashed the new BIOS. You may just need to re-enable that function in your BIOS.

    I meant the the option "Quick power test" enable/disable, the test preformed at the startup that checks the ram counting 3 times for the entire size. U can enable the quick test and the system does only 1 fast test, or disable it and the system does 3 "slow" tests before to proceed in the booting. With the previous bios modded by Tmod i had this option, that usually there is in every bios of every mobo... In this bios there isn't this option available...

    I don't know why that is mate. I'll PM Tmod and bring this thread to his attention.

    I will look into the problem with that selection in the bios.

    They may have disabled it with some hex code that toggling it in Modbin will not actually open it for selection.

    I am using the wifes system at the moment as my Windows OS decided to part company with the HD.

    So I will have to get all the programs on her system and then take a look.

    Great! Now i have that option, Thank you.
    Tmod, is it also possible to modify the bios to select voltages by steps of 0,01 or 0,05 instead in %?
    I mean the Vcore, cause for dimm and AGP u can already increase the voltage of 0,10 or 0,20. And it would be fantastic also to can select the ram frequency directly (not in %) and non depending on the FSB. :D

    gorro,

    At this point in time I would have to say no.

    That would require a rewrite of the bios code.
