I have a Gigabyte GA-K8NXP-9 motherboard with the F4 bios. On checking Gigabyte's website for an updated bios there are two listed:- F6 and F7 Does one have to install the F6 bios prior to installing F7, or does F7 contain all previous bios updates?

Hi there, I have problem connecting to the internet after I update my BIOS from F1 to F7. I tried going from F1 to F6 and it's the same result. Do I need to update the BIOS in sequence? I.e. F1 - F2 - F3... etc. The internet is working fine in version F1. When I did this test, all...

I'm in the market for a SFF PC that has at least two PCI slots and one AGP slot? I would also want it to be a socket 754 motherboard. I want to use this PC for a Windows Media Center 2005 PC. I need two PCI slots because I want to have dual tuner capability and HDTV. I'll probably use an Athlon...

As the topic says, which gigabyte s939 boards are going to suport the X2 chip? TIA M.

Hi all, I used @BIOS (can't abide farting around with floppy drives anymore ;o) to flash from the F6 to F7 BIOS. After a few problems (stalled downloads etc.) the update process seemed to go fine and F7 is now listed during the boot-up sequence. However, SiSoft's SANDRA indicates that the BIOS...
