    I hope someone can help me. I have been messing with this for most of the day and cannot get it to work.

    I just stuck a phenom II x4 955 cpu in my m2n-sli deluxe, the new 5001 bios update adds support for Am2+ socket. My problem is that I cannot get my bios to update. The AWDflash does not work for my 64-bit windows 7. I have downloaded the Asus update tool and it will erase my rom, load the new rom, but fails to check it. I was able to reload my old rom from back up before I restart so I didn't brick my MB.

    I have also tried to stick the .bin on a USB drive but the bios tool, EZ FLASHER does not find the usb drive. In fact, it won't even load my C: drive. It shows A: and C: but when I hit enter to open C: it finds nothing.

    I feel I should mention I have had asus support (live chat) up for about 8 hours now with no response. Please, for my sanity, someone help me :)

    I have also stuck 4 GB(2x2gb) ram which is not showing up. I am assuming this maybe because the processor is not properly identified?
