This page has some motherboards that have been tested by users and comments about how they work with FreeBSD: http://www.freebsd.org/platforms/amd64/motherboards.html I'm running the Giga-Byte K8NS Pro myself on my main machine (not 939 though) and it works pretty good aside from some defects that occurred with my original and my RMA replacement board in both FreeBSD and Windows. I also just got done upgrading a machine with a MSI K8NGM2-L (939) which seems to work pretty good in 6.1-PRERELEASE aside from the onboard sound not functioning and the onboard NIC not being detected (I already had a PCI NIC and sound card so no problem there). -Mark -- GnuPG Public Key: http://www.mkproductions.org/mk_pubkey.asc Internet Radio: Party107 (Trance/Electronic) - http://www.party107.com Rock 101.9 The Edge (Rock) - http://www.rock1019.net IRC: MIXXnet IRC Network - irc.mixxnet.net (Nick: MIXX941)
