Are motherboards becoming too complex, or is it just poor documentation?

It has always been that way. In fact, it used to be MUCH worse back in the day. Back then, there was no such thing as Plug n Play or USB. And, incompatablity ruled the day. Not only did you have to configure each and every (ISA) card, but there was no such thing as IRQ sharing and only a few...

Are motherboards becoming too complex, or is it just poor documentation?

Documentation for motherboards have improved probably by 1 million percent in the past decade. Back in the day, you almost had to know Chinese in order to make sense of the manual. The problems that prevail today root from the user. Too many people who never should have even looked inside...

Best Memory for A8N Asus Deluxe???

http://www.pricewatch.com/h/prc.aspx?i=33&a=42545 CORRECTION: Above is not Rev 2. You're right. No one has Rev 2 in stock at a decent price. Monarch has it for $289 but is out of stock with an ETA of Feb 21. But, don't count on those ETAs

Best Memory for A8N Asus Deluxe???

What you are really asking is, "What memory are you using in your A8N." Obviously, everyone is going to boast that they've made the best decision with their memory selection. So, why don't you just do this: Determine what you prefer, price or performance. Generally, the faster the memory...

Anyone care to share their experience with buying from www.monarchcomputer.com

They are excellent! BTW, they seem to be the only vendor to consistantly stock Lian Li bezels.

A8N-SLI Motherboard

I suspect you loaded the drivers before updating WinXP. The OS should have all critical updates installed before loading any drivers. Then, the chipset drivers should be installed before all other drivers. Driver install sequence can be very is important. In this case, it is. There is a...

Large drives - RAID 1 and partitions

I don't see why not. But why would you want to partition it?

Motherboards?

Yes you are right. But, a P4EE user typically won't care about overclocking.

Motherboards?

Intel makes a solid mobo. But then, so does Asus and others. The thing with with Intel mobos is that you generally don't get as many features as you would with mobos from Asus and others. The most important factor of a mobo is its chipset. The mobo that you are considering has a 925XE...

Help! Still can't get ASUS A8N-SLI to POST

No way! Not the motherboard. Why would you ever take your computer to CompUSA to help them solve your problems anyway? They have no clue. 1) You've assumed you had a bad mobo and have therefore replaced it twice. This is your 3rd mobo you say? They say doing the same thing and expecting...
