    Hi ever since i got this god awful motherboard i have been plague with boot problems.

    today it started tossing up lots of bsod errors........vista no longer boots

    bsod errors = header pool failure
    memorymanagement failure
    irq not equal on chipset device

    other regular boot failure errors = sata drives not posting in bios
    sata drives posting but disappering in windows

    the chipset gets VERY hot but cannot fit a fan due to it being under the end of my graphics card

    bad quality sound from onboard cm6501 sound chip

    so im finally at the point of replacing the motherboard with a new one cos im fed up of boot issues.

    what board to get is the question

    my cpu is an AMD Athlon x2 6000+
    my ram is 4x 1gb corsair xms2 pc6400 ddr2
    my graphics card is an xfx nvidia geforce 8500gt 512mb pci-express
    i have a creative labs audigy extreme pci-x1 soundcard
    i have a hauppauge hvr 1300mce tvtuner pci
    i have a buffalo wifi card pci
    i have 1x maxtor sata2 150gb hd and 1x wd sata 2 500gb hd and 1x seagate 80gb ide hd and 1x pioneer sata dvd-rw drive
    dual 19inch lcd screens
