a while ago i accidentally installed k7s5a pro modded bios when i only have a non pro k7s5a, when i realized I right away installed the right ones, just 2 mins ago i decided to try the pro modded bios for fun, so far im having no problems and in aida 32 bencmarks i moved up like 200 mb/s so im now on par witht a athlon 1800+, Is it sade to keep them? Or will I encouter problems?
What's the difference between the Pro and non-Pro versions?
The fact that you could POST and boot using the "wrong" BIOS would indicate that they are not that far apart.
I've never tried using the "wrong" BIOS so I have no idea what the long term effects might be.
Ive looked into it and the only diffrent between the 2 boards is that the non pro has only 2 1.1 USB and the pro has 6 usb 1.1 and 4 usb 2.0 and the color is diffrent. Everything else it absolutly identical, like the chipset etc. But what really stumps me is how i gained 200 mb/s on aida32's benchmarks.
