If the turbo ratio does not come up when you install bios version 0902. You can call asus tech support and see what they suggest.

i can only find 0402 bios version from them the first release one

I don't have a notebook and I've called them before. I think you should call them immediately, they will probably want the serial number off of your motherboard.

You can try that, If it does not give you the turbo ratio call asus tech support and ask them how to get the turbo ratio option.

OK all we can do now is wait and I hope they call you rather than sending you an email.
