Thanks. I appreciate the caveats, but I will try one of these and see if it solves my problem. I did flash to the latest on the official site (1.2 - for which you posted the reease notes) > I probably have emails at work stating the changes in version 1.27 and > 1.32. So I'll have to look for those later. That would be good to have if you do. I am not sure it will help, as the other Peter who is having the same problem is running a completely different make of motherboard, but I am happy to give it a try. In general I rater like MSI motherboards and their BIOS'es - mainly because they are the only ones I have found recently which let me use a Compaq RAID controller in a non Compaq system. That was my primary motivation for getting this motherboard when I upgraded the server. cheers, -pete.
