Would love to know where this 10A bios can be found.

Thanks

Yes, dual channel. There seems to be an un-official 10A bios that
handles
the dual channel properly. I guess I will forget about 2 channel for
about
a
month or so and it should be fixed in a proper release. thanks.

Had similar prob. Are you trying to use dual channel memory?
As dual channel memory just keeps machine in
reboot loop.
Bought two 512Mb memory modules PC2700 from Crucial using their
memory
selector. Both modules use the same chip (infineon) rated at 333DDR.
If their are put into Slot 1+2 there work fine, but then the dual
channel
memory isn`t being used this way.

I removed one memory stick and now the problem is gone. I have
tried
2
different brands (Kingston and some generic) same problem. Seems
to
be
a
problem with this board. Anyone else had similar experiences?

Hi,

I have just put together a GA-7N400 Pro system with 2x512MB RAM,
2x80GB
WD
RAID drives, 10 GB application drive, MSI FX5200, Termaltake
420W
power.
No
overclocking.

I think I have all the latest drivers and bios. Sometimes one I
access
different applications it will just reboot. No bluescrueen, just
a
reboot
like I had pressed a button. Latest application was Symantec
Internet
Security (comes with the MB). Trying to update over the net
restarted
it
and
so did trying to remove it. It also seems like the Easy Tune 4
can
have
the
same effect.

Any clues greatly appreciated.

thanks

I have two 512mb PC2700 Crucial modules (purchased 6/03). They are unstable
for me in dual channel mode but work fine in single channel.

If a bios upgrade will help, I'll try it. I'm now using version F9.
