I've been running this motherboard for a while now and I'm starting to get really odd hardware issues...initially, I had a sblive platinum -- suddenly, after a reinstall of win2k, the comp wouldn't recognize it and then started causing the comp to blue screen all the time. It worked for a while when I tried winXP, but then the same problems. I sold the card since I was short on money and use the onboard sound now. However, now I'm getting data corruption problems, i.e. files downloaded from, say, macromedia's trial site are corrupted or copying a jpeg results in some error where the picture's messed up a little bit. There's also been more significant lag lately, i.e. not being able to handle winamp3 and opening a word document at the same time without lots of stuttering sound and mouse lag. The whole time I've also been getting irql errors or page fault errors => blue screen. Yesterday my comp decided it didn't like my front bay USB hub anymore and recognizes it as an unknown device when before it's always autodetected. grrrrr...does this stuff happen all the time? Is it really the motherboard at all?
As far as my setup, I have a t-bird 1.4 gig, 60 gig RAID 0, 30 gig ide, generic memory, voodoo3 2000 (never caused me a problem), and a generic 350W PS.
