OK follow-up on this since I wasted most of yesterday playing with it :( DN2800MT will install XP, Probably Vista, W7 and Linux with graphics switched off. Enabling graphics in Linux seems to be hit and miss but basically there are no drivers for the Intel GMA 3600 graphics for Linux or XP but XP will run. D2500HN is similar except THAT will not install XP, so is restricted to W7. Get a blue screen crash with every install disk I have here. Bottom line ... don't think the GMA 3600 based motherboards are worth wasting any time on ... They may be a bit more expensive, but I think I'll switch back to the VIA ITX boards as at least they still support W2k as well and Linux support is more open. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
