I am doing something similar with an old Soyo(/AMD/VIA) MB of my own... I managed to find a NEW exact rev. sealed board from a dealer... I think I'm good to go for another three years... And all for only $40(US)... grin Lots of RAM, and runs at 2.6G AMD... I'm beginning to think it was a bad

Re: [H] Asus bad

I've definitely had issues with a few VIA based mainboards, BUT I also have 3 epia mini-itx systems that have been rock solid running 24/7 for about 4 years. The mini-itx ones seem to be very stable when configured as these ones are. I used the same drive image for all of them, running win2k
