Hi,
I have had this board for about 3 weeks now. So far I have been quite happy with it.
But some problems that I've had which hopefully are going to be fixed with new official BIOS:
- I looses my two Maxtor HD's which worked fine in RAID with my previous board. This happens with both SATA controllers. I tried to use them in RAID & JBOD-mode with Sil-controller but Windows starts giving errors when i try to copy something on them. (In event viewer: The system failed to flush data to the transaction log. Corruption may occur..... Windows - Delayed Write Failed.... The device, \Device\Harddisk2\D, is not ready for access yet..... etc....).
- Sometimes during boot up it looses even my other SATA HD. But with maxtor HD's this happens almost everytime if they are on the nVidia SATA controller. Forget about booting up from them.
- Now with bios 1003-006 it sometimes looses Marvel LAN controller during boot up. But it'll find it again when i clear the CMOS.
- I tried to use Audigy sound card but then the computer didn't even start. Tried different slots but no luck. Again clearing the CMOS helped. But in this case I think the card was the reason for problems.
But it seems overall in my case that the board works fine if I don't use Maxtor HD's..
Now i've had it on for about a week 24/7 nonstop without BSOD. I have played games and had other programs running in the backround without problems which previously ended in a nice BSOD screen...

After reading this thread for an hour... I need help with overclocking!
using bios 1002 - (1003.05 wouldn't recognize my Diamondmax 10 250gb)
I have a 3000+ winchester.
Cool n Quiet - disabled in bios
Memory set to 2.5, 3, 3, 6 @ 2.7volts
Divider set to Auto
HT set to 4x in bios
When I use the AI Booster to up the FSB it registers my overclock but then kicks back to stock speeds 10 seconds later... What am I doing wrong?
Does the JumperFree configuration > Overclock Profile need to be set to AI Overclock to use AI Booster in Windows?
Can someone share a Jumperfree Configuration overclock settings for dummies? If overclocking in bios... use/disable XXX, If overclocking using AI Booster in Windows use/disable XXX

thanks J-Mag.... will give it a shot. Do I just uninstall AI Booster in windows?

Just an update. I rolled back to 1002 and everything came back, HD marvell NIC ect, and i can boot from the maxtor again. So basicly if your having issues you may waqnt to consider sticking or rolling back to. It seems the most "issue free" bios release.

Btw, I'm getting really pissed at Nvidia and their PCI-e 6800 availability. They're usually on back order and if they aren't, the vendors are charging way too much for them. Price gouging at its worst!
