The RMA was rejected in this case because the board is way beyond the factory warranty period we provide for it. More than 6 months in fact. -DFI Support Europe

No offense taken Sonny. I just wanted to use your comment to outline a very common problem on forums and the internet in general. After all these years of living in the digital age, you think that people would grasp the idea that not everything someone posts on the internet is necessarily the...

And just because someone types some words on a keyboard and post them on the forum then they are suddenly the absolute truth? I think you are being a bit too liberal with the word "nie". DFI Support Europe

Hmmmm, not sure what to make of that comment. Maybe it is just my bad understanding of German. In any event the UT X58 board is not "full EOL" as in officially scrapped from the production line. That said I don't expect any more to be produced and unless demand increases alot I also don't expect...

Gents: I promised you some answers so answers you will get: 1: There are no current plans to develop an X68 chipset board. That said never say never as things can change, but currently we have no plans to build one. 2: According to my sources B stepping 6 core...

Indeed I am "Mr Smith". I have dealt with many of you throughout the years via email. I have to be honest and say I'm no huge fan of support via Forums. The reason is that "manufacturer supported" threads often start out well, but sooner or later it turns into a flame war as there are always...

Since you have asked in a civil fashion I will double check and see if I can get some specifics about Gulftown Xeon and B stepping CPU support. In the meantime keep the following in mind: An old Vulcan saying goes something along the lines of: "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the...

To my knowledge there will be no more X58 boards designed. The UT, DK and JR versions being all we need really. BIOS development will still continue thou for some time. As far as I know Oskar and the RD team has a few Atom CPU based boards in the alpha stage at the moment. It will be a while yet...

Yes, I am DFI's support tech here in Europe. I have posted here a few times. I can read German to some extent, but I can't write it I'm afraid. Hence the English posts.

Oskar is still in the employ of DFI. Please get your facts straight before posting such nonsense. DFI Support Europe

It's always just business with me:) People do all kinds of crazy things with DFI boards thou so I often have to be quite strict.

That is unlikely. A BIOS is at heart nothing more than a small bit of software code. If something was wrong with that code the entire board wouldn't start. It is far too simple too be adaptive. If a BIOS version was published with flaws in it then everyone else would be reporting this issue...

Your welcome to discuss the matter for suggestions on our forum at DFI Club. Note however that on matters of RMA in Europe my decisions are final and there is no further method of appeal. I tried to subtley give you some hints as to how to proceed, but you seemed to have not understood them. I...

Getting back to this, the reason why DFI doesn't offer such a utility is that such programs have to work in tandem with the BIOS. As the BIOS for a given board gets changed, such programs need to also be revised to keep up with BIOS development. Basically this has the effect of slowing down the...

None that I know of, and there is a reason for it. I'm just going home for the evening so I'll get back to you tomorrow on this.
