IOW if this isn't the same file as the Beta?

Enabling cool n quite in WindowsXP(SP2) and PC just lockups after a
minute like the beta did, seems the Vcore is going too low (1.1v @
1GHz).

CPU temps are all screwed up too, Oh well back to v1.0.

Theres nothing wrong with the PSU, it runs a MSI/3400+ system with CnQ
enabled just fine. I think it's just crappy BIOS support from chaintech,
I'm going back to Asus and MSI. ;p

Bye,

Ed, it could be you have a bad motherboard. The reason why I say this is my
motherboard flashes just fine to this latest version, and Cool N Quiet work.
But do what you must. I just hate that you are losing money on the deal,
when you don't have to.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

Ya it's possible, but just seems odd since it runs perfect with BIOS
v1.0. Do you have a newcastle CG steeping?
