I have the same problem as well except I'm using the P4C800-E Deluxe.
ASUS seems to have pulled the 1011 beta 1 bios off their German ftp
servers. The only problem is I thought my ASUS Update is corrupted so
I uninstalled it and I couldn't get the setup.exe to install under
1011 or 1010 final after I downgraded the BIOS. What happens is I run
the setup.exe installer and then the ASUS BIOSINFO.DLL will randomly
give some message, either it's garbled text or it'll say NT Registry
error and then when it gets to the blue screen of the installer, it
says I don't have a ASUS MB. Is a clear CMOS necessary since I always
done it with ABIT motherboards as I thought newer and older BIOSes
have settings that might not exist in the CMOS that might confuse
things? Thanks.

Cheers,
Vince

My Asus update utility doesn't work either. This means the MyLogo2
feature is useless. I bought several of these motherboards to put in
systems for customers and wanted to use my company logo. Had to ship
them without it. Very bad form.

That one has the same problem as well. ASUS BIOSINFO.DLL would crash.
I wonder where is that file exactly since I don't see it on the
system anywhere at all. I was using 5.1201 before which was fine when
I installed the system with 1010.004 final.
