One thing that caught my eye was this little nugget in the second post....

<<<"Well, unless it's Revision 1.05, it's not even supposed to work with an XP CPU.

You should have a sticker on the MB that says the revision, it's between the 4th and 5th PCI slots, I believe.">>>

ok. i found the fix on asus website, but unfortunately don't have another proc, lol. i am upgrading my other one, so i guess i'll hafta wait till that proc gets here... thx a bunch vidman
