I'm wondering the same thing...
I don't have a RAID controller on-board, it's just ICH9 (no "r") the motherboard is P5K/EPU without any "SE" or "Deluxe" so how different is it?
Would either of these posted ROMs work?
I need to find a floppy drive before I can try lol
Asus lists a version 0501 BIOS for the P5K/EPU on their support site, so i'm hopeful that the upped file with that number might work for it. I was hoping someone with superior knowledge might confirm or refute this, but failing that i might just give it a whirl and let you know on this thread. (I can always re-flash to the current BIOS if it goes wrong).
BTW, why would you need a floppy drive. Can't you just use a USB stick with this board? I've flash upgraded the BIOS via USB before - is this different?

cosmonaut23, nice nickname, exUSSR?
Thanks. Having poked around further, it doesn't look hopeful that that BIOS is going to do the trick for AHCI on the P5K/EPU. Although at least some of these boards should support it. However, there's a good chance i'm just going to fry it, isn't there? Shame as i i think it's probably about the only thing that's going to stop a certain unix based proprietary OS from crashing intermittently...
And no, not ex-USSR - ex-Robert Anton Wilson reader. Who likes all things to do with space;-)
