The previous remarks about the GeForce 5200FX PCI card were spot on. Things seemed to go better when I installed Windows (XP) with the card in the slot right off and didn't install the onboard VGA drivers. Note, at least in my experience, the onboard video no longer seems to function doing it this way, even when the 5200 was removed.
Putting this mobo through it's paces I also installed a SATA/IDE/USB2.0/1394a PCI adapter and other items and things are pretty much working properly. However, strange side effects occured (with just the 5200FX card installed) and some games don't work correctly. The problem seems to be based around DirectInput. Multimedia programs to watch DVDs & play music work correctly. Linux ran just fine as well.
This is a tough little mobo with a small processor - about 1/8'' high on a seemingly standard 40mm fan. A good board for a fun mod project or a gift for someone to surf the net, watch some DVDs, and play some music. |

I bought this motherboard to use as a Linux system even though all of the drivers on the included CD-ROM are intended for a Windows machine. I had no problem installang Fedora Core 4 on this system and the integrated sound, video, USB, and Ethernet worked correctly right out of the box. it runs cool and performs well, especially for the price. |

I was impressed with this motherboard's size and all-in-one convenience, however I encountered one problem. The on-board AGP video cannot be disabled. I installed a nVidia GeForce FX 5200 in a PCI slot. The on-board video steals at least 16 megabytes of RAM (user configurable up to 64) and cannot be released. Also, I have been experiencing problems with conflicts between the two video adapters since the motherboard's VGA is still detected by the operating system and tries to share the same IRQ with the add-on card. I know that most users won't be adding a better graphics card since this is not a gaming board, but it is an annoyance that my 256MB of RAM must be reduced to 240 and there isn't anything that can be done about it. Other than that, performance was well within my expectations and it runs fairly cool. I can see how this would make a great small form factor/low noise project or in-car installation. One thumb up. |

This is an inexpensive motherboard CP combo that installs easily and works quite well BUT!!!!
Almost anything you want to do sends the processor into hyperactivity, CPU usage goes of the scale and the PC seems to stall until the usage comes down which may take what seems to be an inordinate amount of time. Internet downloads and browsing speeds are acceptable but for instance the installation of Win XP updates takes forever. |
