Title: GA-880GMA-USB3 + FX-4100 = BSOD in Steam.
Post by: babaganoosh on October 08, 2012, 02:03:57 am

Hi,

My computer runs flawlessly, I filed a support ticket with Steam and they told me to re-install Steam... for some reason.

Anyways issue is, every game I run through Steam ends up in a blue screen. AMD acknowledged this issue found here;

From what I understand I need the revision F7 or higher bios to resolve this issue with my CPU/Mobo setup. Problem is on the website for my bios I only see up to F3;

Is there a workaround for this issue?

You need to update the BIOS.
To get  a new BIOS you need to contact Gigabyte support and ask for a beta BIOS that fixes this.
Make sure you identify the motherboard version correctly.

On the other hand on Romanian Gigabyte website there is a  beta F4e  BIOS version , for board version  3.1 ->  http://ro.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3817#bios

Try it .
