I looked at the AGP \ PCI lock version, without those your not going to be able to OC very far anyway. Having a quick look I didnt see any CPU vcore options, but I did unlock a shitstorm of stuff, including an options for G.lan which your board seemingly has looking at its specs, but the option in the BIOS was locked out
Its not like your G.lan is crap either, supports up to 1000MB\s.So in total here is what I did unlock Load failsafe defaults (yes this was hidden.. go figure) Various voltage monitoring stats (+3.3v, vbat etc) CPU shutdown temp (yep you can now adjust this) Fan3 speed (unsure if this is a monitor option or something that allows fan speed control.. eitherway its there) PCI\VGA palette snoop Vlink data rate (default 4x, 8x also selectable) MTRR mapping CPU cache options Thers a load of other stuff too, but thats all I can remember off the top of my head.

thanks, il give it a try in a bit,
any idea what mtrr mapping is for? discrete or continuous got glan but everything else here has 100mb, but been having probs with the onboard, using pci card instead, do you use modbin for this? without the pci lock i cant read the sate drive above 223mhz, so it def helps lol

Impressive, most Gigabit NIC's only do 1 Gigabit.(hence their name) But one that does 1000Mb/s surely is nice. (assuming you meant Mb and not MB of course)
Besides, I doubt the whole NIC was disabled, that wouldn't be very cost effective. Probably just the ability to boot from the thing. |

Hows the modded BIOS doing? Anything that could do with tweaking in respect to layout on any of the pages?

I think I did do some. I remember making a post with a bunch of AGP BIOSes an telling ppl not to bug me if something didnt work with them cos I had no way of testing the AGP versions.

Thank you for the answers.
So i am going to try to flash my bios with this new one. I will use winflash utility because i don't have any floppy drive so i don't know how to boot in dos. Any version of winflash should work? about winflash, it seems that there are some options to mark or unmark ![]() which one should i use (above image is not from my computer so it is another version of bios written). I really hope this will work. I saw on a forum that there was an other way to lock PCI/AGP frequencies of K8T neo2 v2.0 motherboard, by using clockgen and changing the values of the byte 9 bit 6 from 7F to 3F. I tried it but it results systematicly in a freeze of my computer, arghh , so the modified bios is the last chance for me to overclock my amd3700+ |

This is what I boot into windows now ,all stable . I used Crystal Cupid to raise my voltage to just over 1.4 volt ( could not get it to go any more ) And I used the clockgen download ( In the techPowerUp ,download section here ) and in the pll dropdown bar I used ics950405 pll ,then in clockgen options I checked appy at startup and thats it . I'll leave it at 2764.4 MHz (276.44 * 10)for now .thanx again |

Nope. I'll change any minor layout issues there may be in the BIOS, but as of yet nobody has mentioned any so I assume all is good.

Hi, I've got the K8T Neo2-F V2.0 with a 3700+. I've installed ketxxx's bios - great work -
the agp/pci lock works great, I've overclocked to the max possible in the bios which is 232 MHz which makes my chip run at 2551 MHz. But I think this processor can do more, motherboard sensor says temperature is only 28 deg. C. I'm using linux so I can't use something like clockgen. Is there any way the bios can be hacked so that I can type in a number larger than 232 for the fsb speed? I'm thinking that if clockgen can reprogram the clock generator chip for a higher frequency, the bios should be able to as well. Does anyone know if the 232 limit is real or is just some artificial limit msi have put in for stability or marketing reasons (ie they want to you buy the more expensive "overclocking" board). Can the bios be modded so that I can type in a number larger than 232 to get a higher FSB? |

I can't get above 220 MHz fsb, sata hard drive I get a boot failure. Where in the bios exactly is the pci/agp lock?? Downloaded and installed Ketxxx moded bios, no problems, but cant find the pci/agp lock?? Memory is OCZ pc3200 platinum V.2, cpu amd 64 x2 4200+ manchester. I think I just need to find the pci/agp lock in the bios and all will be good. Thanks in advance for any help.

there is no pci/agp lock option, its just enabled somewhere within the bios code,
have you flashed your bios with the correct one? because with the pci/agp lock bios the sata should function fine regardless of fsb
