Does anyone have a copy for the boot disc for a p5n-e sli or any way to update my bios without it?

[Slightlynerdy]

I need to update my mobo because my graphics card wont display untill the welcome screen on windows 7 also i need to update to oc my cpu because the current bios makes it impossible to over clock and i do not have the boot disc

all you need here http://support.asus.com/Download.aspx?SLanguage=en&m=P5N-E+SLI&os=25

The drivers and the latest BIOS can be found here: http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P5NE_SLI/HelpDesk_Download/

I'm not sure what you mean by 'boot disc' for a motherboard. There is only the driver/utility disk.

 

[Slightlynerdy]

i have all the drivers and everything i need all i need is the p5n-e sli support disc you need to update bios

 

[Slightlynerdy]

motherboard support dvd they do not have that and that is what i need

 

[scout_03]

There's BIOS updating tools in the BIOS-Utilities section of downloads.

I had that same exact board years ago and updated my BIOS several times w/o any boot disc.

 

[scout_03]

hope you could find it since the update is in flash and dos .

Make a DOS bootable USB drive:

Download and copy the BIOS Flash tool from Asus to the USB drive (Under BIOS Utilities, Phoenix Award BIOS flash tool version 1.20, you'll have to unzip as well):

http://support.asus.com/download.aspx?SLanguage=en&p=1&s=22&m=P5N-E%20SLI&os=25&hashedid=KyHOsOKWujC2QguJ

Download the most current BIOS (1406), under BIOS, same link as above.

Run the flash tool executable. Pretty straight forward from here.

Or... I'm pretty sure you can use Asus EZ flash from within the BIOS and just put the updated BIOS on a usb pen.

 

[COLGeek]

Page 2-8 of the English user manual will walk you through the process of using the Asus EZ Flash 2 Utility as well. Same link as you posted before, in the Manual section.

 

[COLGeek]

There are 3 ways to flash this motherboard. Page 2-9 of the same manual tells you how to upgrade from within Windows as well.

You don't have to use the DOS based tool. None of these options is difficult.

Good luck!

ez flash doesnt detect my usb stick

 

[Slightlynerdy]

so i was able to update it but it didnt fix my problem with my graphics card

I replied to his PM with that exact same instruction. It tells him how to use Asus EZ Flash 2 and/or Asus Update in Windows right in the manual. I had that same board and never had any problem updating my BIOS. But he refused to calm down long enough to take a look.
Now apparently he has tried it and had success with the BIOS update.
