I have tried all the bioses before, but I have now had an interesting development. I updated to 1205 bios again, but this time through EZupdate inside the bios instead of using AWDflash from dos. Now the machine hangs a long time after the startup beep. It stops for a long time after it list the
CPU, then it takes about 30 sec before listing
Ram and HDD's. (it's not quick boot disabled)
I Have to wait those 30 secs to enter bios too. it just say entering BIOS for 30 or so sec. But I don't care. I have now watched 9 episodes of House MD in a row without a crash and the computer is as fast as it should be as soon as it starts booting and in Windows.
