The last straw for me is when the f^cking thing did the dance when Windows was booting. :slapass: Nice huh?
I could not deal with that, and discovered Asus designed this into the board to protect the BIOS settings when not running stock or 266. This info is documented on posts on THIS forum, by the female expert overclocker... Eva. (Eva is very good at overclocking) She discovered this bug months ago and contacted Asus about it, and it is to stay. The PB5 Asus does it as well. :eek:
Yeah it was fast, but how long were my components going to last? :mad:
As you may already have determined I Rma'd the ASUS and my ABIT arrives tomorrow. :toast:
