I have a BE6-II v1.2 that I upgraded to a v2.0 with the 2.0.1024 oem BIOS and drivers. What BIOS and driver version is required to recognize a 200 gig hard drive? I've already obtained some of the custom files from Mr. Geery's ftp site but do not no which version to use. Anyone? Thanks in...

Can anyone tell me please the speeds and data width the "Abit AX8 Skt-939 PCIEx16 integrated Sound/GLAN/Firewire" m/board's legacy standard PCI supports? The background to this question is: I am looking for a m/board with PCI-X (or at least fast PCI) to support an Adaptec 29320-R SCSI controller...

I'm about ready to do a system upgrade and I'm looking for some opinions on my options. I use the machine for mostly general stuff, some games, and some still photo and video editing. My current system is an Abit BE7, with a P4 2.2Ghz CPU. I've been happy with the Abit motherboards and would like...

What is that...there isn't a picture of it...

I have A NF7-S Version 2 Board when the computer stay on for about an hour and I try to turn off or restart it freezes all you see is the hour Glass. the only way to turn off the computer is the power switch. I have uninstalled all software and still the same problem. I have everthing set...

Hey guys An older board, I know, but it's a cheapo upgrade at the moment. Is anyone using the KT7A with a locked 2400XP (T'bred-B)? My revision 1.1 board didn't like it, but the revision 1.3 does and even says it's a 2600XP. Running at 16x133, with no problems so far. BTW, I'd really like to...

Hello, Where there is an electrical shutdown (general power of the home is down, one second or one minute), all my computer restart automatically, except the computer with Abit VP6. I need manually press power switch button of the case to restart it. I run server software on this computer, so I...

Heelllppp!!! Just replaced my SOYO Fire Dragon with the a new Abit IC7-G, 3.2GHz P4 and 2 sticks of Corsair memory. I'm not trying to overclock, just using default settings. After boot, I get an boot error (NON SYSTEM DISK) It boots OK to a floppy disk. I've tried two different harddrives, one...

I have been told in another post that the NF7-S v2.0 won't work with Twinmos RAM unless the BIOS is updated. How much truth is there in this and also would this stop the board autopowering off when no cpu fan is detected? Thanks in advance.

I had to clear my CMOS and now my primary IDE channel 45 gig 7200 rpm IBM hard drive is running in PIO mode. I know for a fact that it was at some point running in UDMA mode. When I go into the bios, the settings for the channel are to auto detect and are not forcing PIO mode. I'm running win2k...

Hi there! I managed to get my KT7A and a Palomino 2000+ to run fine, no problems so far :) Okay, except for this one: Sometimes, when I restart my OS, the board hangs in POST. After pressing the reset-button the system will boot fine. I know that my CPU isn't officially supported by ABIT so I can...

I just got this board set up and the guy who set the board up put the HD and DVD drive on IDE port 2 and the Writer on IDE port 1, i just tried to change the boot order and the system wouldn't boot at all. It works (only works) if i have it configured the way the guy set the board up. Does anyone...

Hi! I have a quick question regarding BIOS flashing on an Abit KT7A board. If this is in a FAQ somewhere, kindly point me in the right direction, but I could not find anything regarding the question on the web/googlegroups. Here goes: Abit suggests booting from a DOS floppy disk and executing...

I bought a Sound Blaster Live! Value card (CT4780) on Ebay recently and haven't been able to get it to work. It was a bare card with no drivers. Oddly enough, I only get sound out of it when I play an audio CD. No sound from wav, mp3, or midi files. I've checked the standard culprits: sources...

Hi, I am looking to upgrade the ram in my machine which currently consists of 2X256MB PC2700 sticks. Would I be able to add 2X512MB sticks totalling 1.5GB or would this not work. I remember there being a pairing/banking something or other issue that limits the combinations you can have. Any info...

I flashed the bios updating it. After restart it was dead blank no amount of clearing it would work. The monitor stays dark, can't load new from floppy for some reason. any ideas?

I have an NF7-S & AMD Athlon 2500+ that I bought at Christmas and all of a sudden it quit booting up after 30 days. Below is the text of an e-mail I sent ABIT explaining my problem. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS? It started at Christmas with my wife's 3 year old PII 300 that I thought I'd...

Why won't my board see the third 512 MB stick of memory?

I have been trying to build a new system for gaming. I have a NF7-S V.2 With the latest BIOS which I just flashed. I have a ATI 9600 XT AGP 8X Video card and Kingston 512 MB PC 3200 Ram in Dimms 3 and 2. Eveytime I boot up I get all the way to windows is checking your hadware configuration, As I...
