Title: GA-P35-S3G - Need F3A bios please!!
Post by: LargeStyle on June 19, 2010, 11:56:16 pm
Quite simply - I need the F3A bios for the GA-P35-S3G mobo and I can't find it anywhere, so does anyone have any idea why it has disappeared and more importantly, where I can obtain it from. The official page only has F1, F2, F3, F4, and F5.

FYI: I need this bios for overclocking purposes, and I've used the F3A bios before, but I went back to F1 for another reason, and I've just tried F5 and neither allow overclocking (for me).

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Dark Mantis, but the first 2 links you provided just put you onto dead links on Gigabyte website (for the removed bios), and the 3rd link was for the F3A bios for the GA-MA770T-UD3 mobo.

Any other suggestions, please?

Thanks Fatman, but that link is the same as link 2 as suggested earlier. Softpedia has 3 external mirrors, all pointing to dead/official official Gigabyte pages!! In fact, I've not come accross a site that hosts the file themselves, they're all seemingly just links to Gigabyte - this is why I'm rather stuck at the mo, but thanks again for the help.

Anything else.... ???

Hi,

I have managed to get hold of F3A BIOS from a Chinese website. If you PM me with your e-mail address I will send it to you.

Hi
Sorry about that. After a quick check up I find you are right, it's not an easy one to pin down now - mostly dead links :-[ Still absic115 seems to have what you need so contact him.

Just wanted to say thanks to anyone that has contributed and helped me out - I now have F3A running and can overclock my mobo again! Wo-hoo!

Thanks again.
