Taking votes on the best 815EP motherboard.
Want overclockability but stability more important.
The Abit SA6 and the MSI 815EP Pro-R look the best but I'll take other suggestions.
Prefer no video onboard connector (even though I know it's in the chipset) and would like sound onboard.
What's...
If any can confirm this I would like to know.
I tested the new VeloCD 16/10/40 on an Abit VP6 and an MSI 694D-AR both would not run CDSpeed99 or CDDAE99 in 2000 until I uninstalled the 1428 Via Chipset UDMA driver and installed the 1425a Via drivers.
The older Via drivers give very crappy...
I loaded MBM 5.1 and I haven't figured out where the sensors are but if you go to the temperature sensors section and then select sensor one.
Then in the board sensor pulldown select Via686A-1. I believe that is the case sensor.
There are 3 Via686A sensors. #1 reads 22C, #2 reads 30C and #3...

I feel the MSI 694D was more overclockable but some people have had better results with the VP6. The...
I don't believe it does.
I will load up MBM and see what I get and then get back to you.
I loaded the Temperatur monitoring program that came on the CD with the motherboard and there doesn't seem to be a temperature read out for a case temp.
That's why I say it doesn't at first.
If you email...
Here's a couple things to check. I just went around with the 29160N which is very similar.
If you can get into the SCSI bios DISABLE the Boot From CD-ROM option.
The symptoms I saw was I was not able to boot the SCSI hard drive unless I had a bootable 2000 CD in the SCSI drive. Very wierd...
The following is a letter I sent to TDK support. If anyone else has an idea of how to fix this please let me know.
I'm really stuck on this one.
Thanks,
