First off, my specs.
The board is made by XFX.
My problem is, when in the BIOS, the option to change the FSB is there but it is 'grayed out'.
Now, I've read that people had to change their BIOS version to something other than the manufacturer's supported versions.
The BIOS version I have is not the most current, there is a P08 available from XFX's website. Here's where I run into my other problem. Every board I have ever updated the BIOS on, has been in an ISO format. Burn that to a disc and boot from it. Easy and simple. XFX's previous BIOS update was an ISO but in all of their wisdom, released the P08 as a BIN file. They also say to use their WinFlash utility to update the BIOS from windows, something that I was told NEVER to do. Soooooooo. How do I go about updating the BIOS with the BIN file they gave me? And will this even 'fix' the grayed out FSB?
Please and thank you!
