Hi, I want to start an owners thread about this board since it has loads of bugs...

Let me start the posting with a few questions to other owners:

What BIOS version did ur board come with - and how hot does ur chipset get?

So far I've had 2 boards and both of them have failed to install win XP - they crash during install due to chipset heat issues (thatts what I think anyway) - the chipset cooler is extremely hot. I had BIOS version 02.61 on both boards - both bought from the same webshop - same shipment I think...

thx alot
 
Maybe a SATA issue? Do you need to F6 with a floppy for proper drivers for the Nvidia controller? Might not be setup for regular IDE mode in the bios?

Im running with just one SATA disk - no IDE disks - and im not promted to press F6, so I dont think so.
