How do we disable the offset mode on this bios i was running stable with a 4Ghz+ clock on very old bios version (0xxx) which had this mode available to be set to manual but after updating to version 3027 i cant get this stable anymore would rather use manual mode to enter my voltage manually.

Any tips what im doing wrong or its not available on this bios version and need to downgrade to a older version?

If i need to download which most current release has this option?

Option not in 3027. It is supported in 2002. I also had a stability issue with 3027, 4.2ghz overclock on my 1100t would constantly crash so I
went back to 2002 and is once again stable.

The 3027 Bios update's MAIN point is the Bulldozer...if you look at the new Supported CPU's it does state that the new Bulldozer processors are now supported and if you look at the problems the CHV's are having with backwards support you can understand not to use it unless you have a Bulldozer CPU...I'm running the 3027 with a 965 with no troubles but I'm at stock on everything except multiplier and it's set to 3.8ghz but if I decide to try and overclock later I'm sure to back down to the 2002 Bios.

Really? No more manual voltage setting in 3027? Maybe I don't want to move to it after all!? I have been planning the update to try to smooth over a couple of issues with the system, and hopefully improve my stable 24/7 overclock past 4.0GHz... having said that, I am at 3.99 now and it was really]/I] easy to get there, on voltage offsets with the 1902 BIOS.

try the 2002 BIOS, I got a stable OC on a 965BE at 4.2 Air cooling and it automatically set my offsets as I stepped up...No fiddling needed. Before you ask yes I backed it down because after 30mins with prime95 x 64 I was hitting 58c and 59c across all cores and now waiting for a Corsair H80.

Thanks, I updated to 2002 BIOS instead.
