Definatly go with B04 there is a problem with the ACHI support on B03 hence the reason B04 came out so quickly. As for the CF issue I'm afraid I don't have two CF cards so cannot help :( I'll ask some of the engineers and see what they have done.

CF still doesn't work, i don't know if it's the sh..y drivers or the mobo

Getting a lot of BSOD trying to install any form of windows. Parts in sig, tried 1 stick tried upping the volts and still BSOD when going to install windows. Hangs at different parts but i never get past entering the product key. Could raid be an issue? Any ideas would be great guys.

I still have problems, I am using external Raid Controller, cause comp is unusable otherwise

Same problem here with a regular Abit IP35 (non-Pro) and a couple of Raptor 74 disks in raid... BSOD as soon as you try to install Intel chipset drivers.

Replaced the raptors with a couple of regular WD 80Gig drives (SATAII) and problems are gone, runs like a charm. It seems these boards are not compatible with Raptor harddrives:(

Tom's Hardware have stopped using Raptors although they think that it's a Vista/nVidia problem ...
Perhaps there is more going on with Raptors though.

I read the article too... my setup was indeed with Nvidia card but not on Vista... I was using XP Pro. So if it's an OS-related problem, it's not just Vista that has it:shakes:

I am using Raptor on Extrernal Promise SATA controller and I have no problem, with Asus boards (p5wdh, p5bd, p5kd) no problems, only Abit, FFS

and when you have no IDE/SATA devices, it's IN:banana::banana::banana::banana:POSIBLE to get to bios with USB keyboard !?!

I think I will stop trying with Abit after this one
