Hi, I'm new to overclock.net. I recently purchased the P5E, and updated my bios from 402 to 405. After this update, in the bios options I was not able to set my vcore correctly. The lowest value it would set was 2.6V. Clearly this is too much, but the only other option was to set the vcore on auto. As I barely started overclocking, at 300 FSB my vcore was already at 1.328. Does anybody with this board have any knowledge on how to fix this?

Man, I've checked yesterday, the P5E 0405 is under Beta, get the 0402. And also, the X38 Asus Series BIOS are buggy.

Ahh. Are you serious? Do you know how to downgrade the BIOS? I've been looking everywhere, but no one seems to have an answer. I tried the asus update, EZ Flash, and they all don't seem to work.

Yeah, you'll have to load the 0402 BIOS on a USB flash drive (because they tell you to save it on a floppy but the file is a lot larger than the floppy capacity, idiots ) and go into BIOS, go to tools, and click Asus Flash and run it. If you can't see Asus Flash in the tools tab, load your BIOS defaults, if you still don't see it, reset your CMOS (the Asus Flash utility for some reasons disappears after overclocking or doing modifications in the BIOS, and you must load defaults or reset CMOS to make it reappear). Or what you may try is, download the 0402 BIOS to your desktop and run Asus Update, and where it says Update BIOS from internet, change it to Update BIOS from file, browse for your saved BIOS file on your desktop, and try to flash.

By Asus Flash do you mean the EZ Flash Utility? Because that's all that I see. Other than the LAN thingy and the O.C. Profile options. When I try doing the EZ flash, it only tells me that the 0402 is an older BIOS than the one currently being used. I've also tried this with Asus Update in Windows, but I get the same result.
