It seems I have the worst bloody luck in the world trying to get my SFF up and running. Instead of making additional threads for all my issues in their respected forums, I'm just going to list them here. If anyone would be so kind as to offer solutions, I'd be appreciative.
Currently I've actually managed to install windows, which took much longer in the install process then I thought reasonable. However,once I actually boot into windows,the problems arise. First of all, everything is choppy. Everything. I attempted to install my nforce drivers from CD to see if that would fix the problem, but to no avail. I'm no even sure they installed correctly, because of the length of time and the reboot. There are also seemingly random reboots, which make it very difficult to run windows update. Also, I can' seem to access my SATA DVD drive anymore - is this the fault of the Nforce IDE drivers. So pretty much the box is unusable as it is.
In summation I have a Dual Core Opteron 165, Biostar Tforce6100-939 - could either the dual core proc or the Nforce 410 chipset be the problem here? According to the Bios, the CPU temp is idling round 30 or so. Help is much appreciated!
