    its not there then you probably need to do a bios update...but you said you updated somethin(did you exactly mean a bios update...i mean flashing the bios?)

    anyways that motherboard of yours seems to have very less(virtually none) information on asus's website as well as while searchin on google...seems they discontinued it or somethin...

    u sure thats the correct mobo model number u provided?

    It's an OEM motherboard stripped of features. Sony wants it that way.

    You could try flashing it with the standard P4B266 BIOS, but it's risky.
