New Bios 1401

**Hopper64** · 06-16-2018 09:43 PM

Just thinking of this, I have had problems using the flashback method on bios 2 on this board too. I have used EZFlash in the bios which works quite well also.

Try flashing via BIOS menu, as would not install for me either.
When booting it was displaying installing new BIOS but still showed the old BIOS after going back to see if it installed.

p.s This was on BIOS 2 as well.

I guess that makes three of us that have the (almost) identical issue with bios 2 on this board. I typically use the flashback method on bios 1 without any problems, but bios 2 yields the same issue. I have seen the same bios after using the flashback routine on bios 2 chip and resorted to EZ Flash in the bios 2 menu itself.

Let try this link*http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/...-ASUS-1401.zip

I don’t have any problem via EZ Flash Utility on BIOS. Flash the 1st BIOS then switch to BIOS 2 . Flash the 2nd BIOS again.
Now modding 1401 with 0200004D Spectre Variant 3a / 4 fixed. Benchmark comparison to 02000043 microcode will report here soon.*

I will give it a try at flashing bios 2 with an older bios and see what happens? Otherwise will flash to bios 1 with 1401,
Weird why it won’t flash to bios 2 though !

Well for three hours now I have tried to get any version to work on bios 2.
At last I have finally managed to load 1301, after about 30 try’s, will try 1401 this evening.
As this is the first time of switching to bios 2 , I was very surprised it would not work and feeling a bit disappointed ( because it’s a great board) but , faith renewed

it will load a bios on 2. I can now switch between 1 and 2
Method used,
Clr cmos, unplug from wall. ( for 10 mins)
Press start button several times ( told it drains any residual power in capacitors?)
Plugged in**
Loaded 1301 via usb/ bios button.
Powered down, unplugged from wall.
Plugged in *and cleared cmos then unplugged again for 10 mins after draining capacitors.
Plugged in and booted.
Booted to bios so f5 and dram voltage to 1.35 and saved.
Re-booted fine with no problems.
Why this rigmarole was needed I really don’t know but glad to have 2nd bios now working, I’m sure 1401 will now load (???)*

I guess it's fine. Just used flashback routine on bios 2 chip out of curiosity with 1401 and it worked beautifully. Don't know what occurred before. ??

Seems bios 2 rebel’s due to lack of attention, seems it likes to be used lol.

Just loaded this, it seems to break DIP5 app in Win 10 1803. App hangs and stutters, never loads. Otherwise the bios is smooth and fast.
