While I'm sure that VIA has something to do with the problem board it 
wasn't VIA that promised me that the memory would run at 333mhz on 
the original board yet that wasn't fixed until rev1  it was Asus 
that left us out in the cold. It wasn't VIA that kept my board from 
bios rev 3 to rev 15 before returning it. I don't know how it was 
VIA's fault that the Promise raid controller never worked but maybe 
it was their fault that firewire port never worked.

I was also disappointed that I could never get the 333MHz that was advertised. As far 
as the Raid controller, I only had it programmed for Raid 1. Although I lost two Maxtor 
hard drives, I assumed it was heat related. If you think the Promise controller was 
flaky, what brand would you suggest for a PCI Raid card for Raid 1?
