Hi Well, Setting up in bios was tricky. There are a lot of options, but the two you first want to try are load failsafe settings or load optimised settings. These two will get the CPU settings rite then you can go back and ajust settings for other devices. I had a lot of trouble whith the sound blaster live card installation. Finally ended up just installing drivers only. The live ware software package would install and the computer would reboot and boom!! Some thing bad happens and press a key to continue. The screen goes black and it restarts in safe mode. YUCK! The more I use it the more I'll know about it. So far so good. I posted another post about what board it is and some comments.
