Modifying BIOS

WyreTheWolf

I have the MSI (Microstar) KT3 Ultra motherboard. The BIOS does not support clock dividers. Is there any way to modify the BIOS to allow me to change the clock dividers manually?

The BIOS are AMI... ARG, most annoying...

You can look for a program called ModBin6. You can use it to unlock some options Board makers didn't want you to have in Award Modular Bios, but be very careful using it though. I don't think you will uncover the option you looking for though, but it worth a look.

Anybody else have any ideas?

I tried that proggy with my motherboard... and no go... it didn't recognize my BIOS. I have been searching for a way to access the 1/5 clock divider in BIOS... but so far no luck.

I can access the clock multipliers no problem. Changed mine back down to 10 and so far it runs rock stable at 166FSB, but my Asynchronous memory option doesn't work. If I change the FSB to 160, the memory goes to 160 too. Most annoying. I hate to see AMI Bios because I don't have any utilities for it either, and stay away from Promise Raid controller 20276. It SUCKS ASS!! You have no options to set strip size and no matter how you set it up either normal or performace and no matter which option you choose from desktop to server to A/V editing, it automatically sets a 64K strip size and that is a huge waste of space. I got the best performance with 8 to 16K strip size, but they chose not to give the option of changing it. I love this board, but wish it had a Highpoint controller. If you find something, let me know and I sent you a reply to your PM

I have full access to clock multipliers... but not the PCI/AGP dividers...

By the way... this is the RAID controller that I have ordered... Should be a good one.
