Question A7V8X question

Does anyone know how I can get my Vcore @ 2.05 V. I tried switching the Vcore jumper on the board to enable the 2.05 voltage, but I don't see the 2.05 value in the bios (version 1012 beta5).

Thanks for answering

The highest I can get mine up to is 1.8. All the overvolt jumper does is increase the voltage by .1V.

I thought the overvolt jumper increases the voltage by 0.2v so that when you selected 1.85v you have 2.05v.

Not for me. I can only select up to 1.7V, and the overvolt brings it up to 1.8.

I just finished formatting for the second time tonight about 15 mins ago. All of the drivers are installed. XP drivers are on the CD, but for the promise, and the ethernet, you have to point windows to the correct folder. For the ethernet, it's \5702_558\Windows.NET32\Driver. The firewire is installed by default for me...
