You would need BIOS version 312 to run the e8 series processors processors you have listed. CPU support for your MB here. Hope the link works.

Funny. I just ordered a new wireless adapter this morning. Finding the latest driver, including a Vista 64 version, on the product page downloads was the first thing I did. Yeah I'm making a *hint*. |

Hi chunkymonster. OP was not told He needed a BIOS update because his MB may have came with the only updated BIOS available. It was mentioned BIOS version 312 supported the e8000 processors he listed. |

If you look at the CPU support site I linked (your MB product page, see downloads on the page) any processor listed on the site that says BIOS version 0205 will work right out of the box. If you look closely, ASUS has issued a BIOS version 0312. This BIOS was released to support new processors. Mainly the e8200,8400, 8500 and e7 series. Unless your MB shipped with this 0312 BIOS update, you would have to update the BIOS to support those listed processors.

Note. If you don't want the quad 6600, just about any of the e6 series dual cores you have listed will work with your MB. Just look for support of the CPU on the link I posted. |
