M7NCD Pro and Bios NCD0111.BFP

Has anyone updated to the latest bios available from Biostar-usa.com? I
flashed, hoping it would fix a long beep I sometimes get when I boot
the PC (one long beep, over and over...I have to pull the power cord
from the PC to get it to boot). From their description of the updated
bios, I thought it might just solve my issue. Not the case.

Anyhow, after I flashed to NCD0111.BFP, XP would not recgonize my modem
nor my wireless adapter, and it displayed the CPU temp 20 degrees
higher than normal. I attempted to clear the CMOS, with no luck. It
wouldn't even recognize the onboard LAN.

I had to flash back to an older BIOS (NCD1102.BFP) so that Windows
could see my missing PCI devices, and display the correct CPU temp.
I've updated BIOS's many, many times, including this one with the
latest as it become available. I've never had an issue upgrading until
this time.

The URL you posted shows NDC0125.BPF as the latest version.

Looks like they have updated the file from the 1/11 version to 1/25.
Thanks. I'll try this over the weekend.

Here is a message from Biostar. I appreciate their quick response to my
question, and to the updated bios to fix the problem.

My Question: Can you tell me the updates/fixes which were made between
BIOS versions NCD0111.BFP and the latest NCD0125.BFP?
(http://biostar-usa.com/mbdownloads.asp?model=M7NCD%20PRO)

Biostar Reply: The NCD0111.BFP had the PCI slots 4 and 5 disabled. The
NCD0125.BFP fixed that problem.

Thank You

How is the 1/25/05 bios working?

I have an M7NCD Pro on the way from Newegg, and from your Bioistar
msg, it sounds like I'll have to update the bios.

The first M7NCD arrived DOA with a "rom bios checksum error". I tried
the boot block recovery flash technique but I never got the dos prompt
and never got it to flash from an autoexec.bat file so I had to return
it.

It works good. It didn't fix my long beep problem though. If my PC
stays off for a while (like after a power failure), it won't post and
generates long beeps. If I unplug the PC from the wall for a few
seconds, it'll then boot-up.

So, the BIOS before this one is ok to use, as far as my system is
concerned.
