Alright, so, I think my chip in unlockable but my bios is stopping me from doing it.
Reason is, I hit the switch, it says 4 cores enabled. Get to the windows loading screen (just before the other loading screen to get into the desktop) and it either freezes or crashes.
So, at first I thought, well maybe I don't actually have a stable quad core. But then I tried disabling 2 cores while the unlock was enabled and it still does the same thing. I think it is just the ACC on this mobo and wondering how I can unlock this puppy.
Thanks for any help. I have the latest .ROM for the bios, but I haven't installed it yet. Maybe I should just update the ROM. Any ideas how?

- Won't let me flash to the latest bios. Tried unzipping the .rom as well. Still won't allow the flash to happen (using ez flash).
- Upped cpu, cpu/nb, nb voltages. Loaded default settings. No show.
- Tried 3 cores. 2 Cores. 1 Core. Still won't get back windows loading screen.
