Zenith Extreme from Digital Storm Aventum Frustration

This board is starting to get to me like no other has since a couple of 602 chipset Xeon boards. A replacement board from Amazon with a original BIOS got to me yesterday. I made the mistake of trying to flash it from 0211 to 1003. It looked fine till it updated and I was greeted with the updating bios screen and error 70. Flashing back to 0305 did work with the USB BIOS FLASHBACK which is good since I didn't want to pull the BIOS chip from the old board. Am I going to have to flash this to each version and work my way up to latest? I have not had this much trouble flashing an Asus AMD board since maybe my SlotA.com days. Thanks in advance!

Well I'm working my way up every BIOS revision until 1003 since now I"m paranoid. Flashing 1003 now with crossed fingers.

Flashed to 1003, but put in the second DS supplied stick and it just keeps rebooting with A1 and C1 populated. Going to reset bios, and try another stick combo. Who knows. No drives hooked up at all at this point.

If it helps any, I also regret buying this board.
