Any issues with running WinXP Pro on the Abit BH6 rev1.0 mainboard?
I have an Abit BH6 1.0 with latest bios rev.SS
I want to install Windows XP-Pro. Will I run into any hang-ups? Here's the rest of my system specs: PIII-600 256MB PC100 SDRAM, CL-2 ATI 9700 AGP card Diamond Monster Sound MX300 soundcard (Aureal Votex-2 chipset) 160GB ATA-100 HD w/8MB cache (WD1600JB) on a Promise Ultra100 TX2, PCI controller card Samsung SM-352B CDRW/DVD-ROM drive D-Link DFE-530TX+, PCI 10/100Mbps fast ethernet card Motorola SB5100 SURFboard cable modem Logitech Cordless MX-Duo Keyboard and Mx-700 mouse Antec Case & Truepower 430W P.S. I do not have any legacy ISA cards installed. Anyone running Windows XP-Pro SP1 on this board? My main concern is with the soundcard. I've upgraded the rest of my system, but the sound card is out of date and Diamond multimedia is no longer in business. I'm not sure if there is a WinXP driver for this card. Any suggestions?

If all else fails, try Windows 2000 drivers. |
