Thanks. Just downloaded the files and will take a proper look later.

I've got a fine CD for DFI-boards, too. It's uploading at the moment. Just burn the .iso on a cd and start from cd. >

debs3759 · Aug 20, 2014

I've taken a look and the NF7 file is mainly modded BIOS files, so I will still want the original CD files (I've got a set of drivers, but the original CD would have had other stuff)

Not sure what everything on the DFI disc is. I'll find out when I get round to testing. Thanks for both

stinger608 · Aug 21, 2014

I just checked and the one I have doesn't have the original disk. :banghead:

I originally got the board from @ThE_MaD_ShOt so he might have one that could be uploaded or emailed.

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Aug 21, 2014

I will have to look and see. I never used the cd that came with the board. I just used the latest drivers from Nvidia.

I have a file with the entire Abit site ,(20gb or so) not sure if there is something there that might be of use for you. Let me know if you want me to check the files for the NF7.

i decided to do the WHITE body RED blooded nemesis...

until i finally get my A7N8X-E... yaaay brownish mobo yaaay ... :shadedshu:

None the less, it would be awesome if you could post that here!!! I would put the link in the original post for anyone on the net that is still using Abit boards. :respect:

Solaris17 already did the job

And the link to the torrent:

If you guys need I can start seeding.

stinger608 · Aug 21, 2014

I remember Solaris doing that. I thought there was a site still and couldn't find it. LOL.

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Aug 21, 2014

I too have the Abit web site wrapped up in a zip file. Thanks to @Solaris17 :toast:

Any apps that were supplied for the NF7-S motherboard, and more general apps for the NF2 chipset will be great, thanks.

EDIT:

Just flipped the page and saw the link. I will download the site, thanks.

2nd Edit

My ISP (Virgin Media) block all access to piratebay, so my original request stands. Thanks again

I would also pay costs if someone can send me the entire site on a Bluray disc. Don't have a BD drive yet, but need to get a BD writer to backup all the movie torrents on my PC

Yeah, Virgin Media and their "antipiracy"...
Try it, when I was in UK I used it on BT internet

https://www.softether.org/5-download

I can even play games with IP block, for example - PSO2 and IP ban outside Japan. VPN is amazing

BTW. Today I switched AM2 machine to desktop mode. I will proably need second PC in a college, so there it is...

I want to buy 2GB DDR2 ram and Athlon 64 X2, it will be proably enough for everything

One of these days I might rebuild my old system for the sake of nostalgia! I must find a case and some air coolers tho, since the original build was fully water cooled.

P4 3.2E SL7E5 @4ghz (250 fsb with 5:4 memory divider iirc)
Abit IC7-MAX3
PowerColor X850XT PE
4x512MB Patriot xblk (cl2)

GreiverBlade · Aug 21, 2014

BANG, unfortunately @ 1778 fsb (QPI) doesn't post ....but keep in mind i still use AUTO Vcore VDDI ... yet that IFX-14 +TY147/SP120 is kinda amazing (OCCT time ... i guess )

Networking software confuses me. I looked at that app and don't really understand what the specs or docs are saying, and can't find anywhere in the docs to tell me how to use it to bypass virgin's antipiracy.

Can you explain in simple terms what I need to install (client? server?) and how i use it to connect to websites and torrents? Of course, if someone can make it available on a regular sharing site, as it's not copyrighted material, that would be better

Still can't figure it out. I tried setting up for servers from your screenshot and can't connect. Where networks are concerned I will always need plug n play

EDIT:

Got it figured - I found how to dl softether with vpngate plugin, that is as easy as I need. I'm now downloading the abit file. Thanks to all

May need you to keep it running longer than one night. The download is so slow I'm getting around 1% per hour, so may take 4-5 days

I guess now I got the download started I can disconnect the vpn - it is slower than my regular connection. Very useful tool though

It is going really slow indeed xD

MaxiPro800 · Aug 21, 2014

Just tried some more BIOSes for my P4P800-VM BIOS and found a weird thing : even BIOSes for LGA 775 boards (ECS 865-M7 and AOpen i865PE-7ILFR are my faves)work on this motherboard.

Currently I have trouble finding a way to have the 865-M7 BIOS assign a IRQ to my Intel onboard NIC since the ECS board uses RTL8100/8139.

The AOpen BIOS works fine with the NIC but the downside is that I can't boot from pendrive (the ECS BIOS can).
