Hey All, I have a friend who just went through a nightmare trying to get his i7-860 running Windows 7/64 or Windows Vista/64 on a Asus motherboard... Thing would lock-up randomly, and tech support was no help. He is also a linux fan, and is thinking of putting Xen on the box instead... He is actually on the way to return the Asus to MicroCenter in Cambridge... and is going to get another i7 motherboard. Has anyone had any experience with an i7 system and any of the retail motherboards out there? Which Linux is the best choice for a Host OS? Thanks, Gerry _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
