Q15 on my K8AN2e runs very hot.
Can someone place their finger on Q15 of a K8AN2E MOBO? Q15 is located a bit below the CMOS battery. It is ~ 3/16 " square, lies flat on the MOBO, has three legs, and a silkscreen marking next to it indicates Q15. Mine gets very hot. I cannot keep my finger on it for more than a few seconds. It is not heatsinked, except through the board. I measure on each leg (left to right) from ground: 4.4, 3.4, 1.6 VDC. I'm wondering if this is normal, as I'm trying to troubleshoot my no POST rig that failed after 6 months. Thanks for your help.

I am now very interested in this board. Can any owners generalize the major issues that this board has? My setup will look something like this:
AMD64 Hammer 3200+
2x CorsairXMS 512MB matched
ATI 9800XT AGP
Hitachi SATA150 160GB
Hitachi SATA2 80GB
Pioneer DVD
Lite-On DVD-RW
I, obviously, will not be running RAID, and I will not be overclocking anytime in the near future.
