Is the boot order in the bios meant to do anything?

Mine ALWAYS goes CD, CD, LAN, HDD.

I've disabled the LAN but it still checks CD before HDD.

In bios it's set HDD, HDD, HDD.

It's annoying 'cause I don't get any video output to my monitor 'til windows (stupid crossfire) and I have no idea what's going on unless I change around the monitor cables, and sometimes it just waits on the LAN thing, or boots from a CD and just waits around.

Wait it doesn't always go CD, CD, etc.

When I first was installing an OS it would go HDD even with CD, CD, CD set in bios. Unplugging one CD drive solved that.

And occasionally it just won't boot. I just get continual long beeps. (this happens without and bios changes). I have to clear the CMOS to get that to fix.

Goddamn, I paid A$600 for this, I'd except some degree of realiability.

What is the best bios for Aopen ?

I've updated to the only one on Aopen's site as of a couple of days ago.

Also I turn off RAID the RAID thing still goes on.

And when I turn off RAID the PATA ports don't detect anything.

!In the bio version R1.03 the FSB goes with 200 MHz Jumpersettings up to 320 MHz highly, the PCIe tension and the PCIe clock can be also changed."
