    I have looked high and low for this bios but all i can find in dead end links and files that used to be hosted on mega upload until the feds closed it. I just purchased a Intel core 2 duo p 9600 and it will not post with the new cpu. I would be very grateful if any one still has a modded bios or the latest version that would accept my cpu, as I would hate to return it.

    Does no one have this bios anymore? I cannot find it either.

    If anyone has a copy of the P-6860FX 94.29 bios or the 94.31 bios. . . PLEASE UPLOAD! :) I have been searching the internet for 2 days and have not been able to find either of these bios and I am not the only one on the forum unable to locate these unicorns.

    If unable to upload the bios, please email to me directly @ [email protected]

    And so are problem that could results from using it. For stability and reliability is to use the release and only MODs if your a tweaker and don't matter if the board survives or not.

    The guy who originally brought the bios link is well gone from posting here and the site containing the file no longer has it as well. For now it seems this version is a red herring.

    apparently I missed this one because the link is dead again. Hopefully someone can repost it. Doing Linux study, and I need the VT-x option turned on for 64 bit Fedora in a VM... :( Can someone throw it in a drop box so it doesn't disappear again? thnx
