Has the update been removed? None of the Asus sites have it at this
time.

Funny how you try to download this all day and an hour after one asks
the question it is working again, thanks.

I've just gone back to 1016.
1017 took ages to p.o.s.t.

Was about to ask others what was the delay in booting.


Guess it was 1017....

I'm a newbie to custom built machines and asus motherboards - had Dells
for years until they simply didn't meet my needs on any level.

So, I have my P4C800 E Deluxe for a year now and I'm about to add two
more sticks of memory to bring it up to 2 gig.

But I'm terrified to update the bios although I did it with the "user
friendliness" of Dell many many times.

If someone wouldn't mind, could you please give me very precise
instructions as to how to flash the bios on the P4C800-E Deluxe.

Thanks a lot.

I just updated to 1019 last night without any problem. I refuse to put a
floppy drive on my "modern" computer so I just used the Asus Update
program which runs in Windows. Make sure it's V.5.22.02 (available on
Asus).

1. Download BIOS for your board here :
http://www.asus.com.tw/support/download/item.aspx?ModelName=P4C800-E%
20Deluxe

2. Unzip the file somewhere (remember where)

3. Run the Asus update program and chose the second option from the
dropdown box "Update Bios from a File"

4. Select your unzipped file and let it do the rest.

Take note. All the bios settings are reset to default. So make a note of
what you've modified in your current settings. It's a bit of a pain
because I don't use my promise controller (and have to turn it off
again, it defaults to having a floppy drive as your first boot up
source, etc) However, once you reset your bios parameters you're good to
go.

Good luck!
