I have set up a GA-8KNXP Rev. 2 motherboard-based system (FG BIOS) to dual boot to Windows 98se (IDE 0) and to Windows XP Pro (SATA HD, Silicon Image controller). The system will boot fine to either OS with only one of my 512 RAM modules (Kingston KVR400X64C3AK2/512 400MHz DDR PC3200 DIMM 3-3-3)...

Windows XP is unable to detect a PCI modem in my 8KNXP motherboard. The motherboard came with the F9 bios. When viewing the IRQ assignments (all set to auto) in the bios, a simple com device (the modem) is occasionally listed. I can't figure out why the bios sometimes sees the modem, but more often...

I'm just wondering which board you all would recommend, it looks like there are some problems with the 8knxp board reading this newsgroup but the Asus board seems very stripped down in comparison. Any input appreciated Colin

I want to upgrade my computer to a P4 (2.8GHz/800FSB) motherboard. I dont know wich one to choose. I was thinking to buy GA-8IPE1000 Pro2 with an Intel chipset. The Australian PC User says that 8S655FX Ultra, SIS chipset is even better. I have two criteria in mind: overclocking and future...

It seems that the GigaByte homepage hasn't been updated since the Athlon XP 2800 came out. Will the GZ-7VAX support the 3000 and the 3200 procs?

Hi, I've noticed that the -12volt rail on my 8KNXP is off by quite a bit. It reads -9 volts. As this is a negative voltage rail, is this any cause for concern, or should I stop worrying and be happy?

I am having a conflict with my USB external mass storage drives and the ATA Raid controller. When I turn on the computer with the USB drives plugged in the RAID 1 Array goes away.

Just bought a new Chieftec case (BX-01B-B-SL) with front audio/firewire/USB and am having trouble with the USB connector. The other 2 connect to the mobo okay but the USB cable from the case to the mobo has 2 pins less than on the mobo. Are there any adapters out there to overcome such problems -...
