Hi,
I need a modded BIOS for ASUS P6T Deluxe V2 with Intel Core i7-990X Extreme Edition.

Base BIOS: 1202 (12/22/2010)
RAM: 6×4GB DDR3 (24GB total)
Issue: BIOS and Windows detect only 8GB.
Memory Remap option missing.
Triple-channel not initialized.

Requested fixes:

  • Updated Westmere microcodes (i7-980X/990X/X56xx)
  • Memory Map / >12GB detection fix
  • Triple-channel initialization fix

Thanks!

Most likely a hardware issue on memory controller or socket pins or damage slots.
It’s no mod that will fix it.

Thanks for the reply. Here are additional details:

  • The issue happened also with my previous CPU (i7-950).
  • Tried many RAM configurations: 1, 3 and 6 sticks. BIOS always shows 8GB usable.
  • Speccy and CPU-Z detect all 24GB, all channels populated.
  • There is no “Memory Remap Feature” option in BIOS 1202.
  • QPI/DRAM voltage tested up to 1.35V, same result.
  • No bent pins visible on socket (checked carefully).
  • Windows always reports “8GB usable”.

Since full RAM is detected but not mapped as usable, this seems BIOS/memory-map initialization related.

If needed I can provide:

  • BIOS dump
  • CPU-Z screenshots for each channel
  • Pictures of DIMM slots / socket

Do you think a RAM training / memory map fix could be applied to 1202?
Thanks!

No, its no mod that will fix a non-standard behaviour of the motherboard, the issue lies elsewhere.
Mixed brand/models/size of DIMM also an issue in these situations.
