On the MotherBoard page, just pick the appropriate category and make
an entry for that model of motherboard. Comment on the
Hyperthreading working, and any other features that are good or not
working.
How? You'll find just about everything you need to know on

Hyper-Threading with the new P4's, so that Linux sees
one P4 as two P4's. Works very well like that too!

Why would the N-Force boards be a problem? The Nvidia video cards can
be an issue but I've not heard of any issues (to my limited knowledge)
with the N-Force mobos. In fact, I'm thinking of picking one up with a
new Athlon XP proc. :-)

Shawn; There's been a lot of problems with the nForce
chipsets - both in Windows and Linux. The
new nForce3 chipsets have also been causing problems. Since
it seems to be a random problem
which happens with various models and brands of
motherboards, a lot of people are staying away
from boards

Derek;
I agree with you about the video cards, and installing the
drivers for either the chipsets or video cards is certainly
a requirement for proper operation. No Question there! It's
just that I belong to a lot of groups which are
hardware-related and the general concensus is to avoid
nForce
Lanman,
Thanks for this news. I wasn't aware.

They are good for AMD boards, too. This one is an A7V - quite old now
- but I'd buy Asus again.

Can we have that one on the TWiki as well, please?
