I've tried ALL of them. How about this little nugget. There is no PCI-e lock option in the bios. How'dya like them apples?

[fagin]

I can confirm that there is no lock on my board with any of the bioses I have tried.

[Halo_Master]

Is there someone with working pci-locks?

Is there someone with working pci-locks?

ditto, my bro got this mobo this morning, we just read this thread and are like..wtf, no pci locks? Can anyone truelly confirm this or not yet? Someone says yes while someone else says no. My bro still has to wait for his memory to arrive (hopefully before xmas) so a swap for the msi isnt out of the question.

Cheers, dEl.

quite ironic to see a red ATI pcb in SLI setup.

Hmm made me think.
I seem to remember seeing grief with ATI on this board with early BIOS.

Issues

With the first board of its kind, not mention getting one of the first boards sent over from Taiwan, there are bound to be a few issues to be dealt with. Our's included an imcompatibility with ATI graphics cards and some stubborn SATA controllers. With our initial BIOS's, the A8N-SLI didn't allow a copy of Windows to be installed when using an ATI GPU - we were consistently greeted with a frozen screen at the "Setup is starting Windows..." during setup. I was not the only the editor to have this issue, so I knew the cards weren't the problem. The other issue was raised while using new BIOS' to try to fix the ATI issue -- our SATA drives were intermittently being detected, making testing quite a hassle. It seems to be mainly a BIOS issue, and I am sure it can be resolved as our reference board from NVIDIA didn't have these issues.

Update (11-30-04)

I am happy to report that by working with Asus' US and Taiwan branches well into the night last night, I was able to have them produce a BIOS that fixes both the ATI card and the SATA drive problems. The last beta BIOS they got for me at after 2AM was able to install Windows with my various ATI cards and my SATA drives were working once again. That means that any boards that will eventually reach the retail channel in the next two weeks will have these fixes that we worked on already installed, and we can be reasonably assured that the kinks have been worked out for a solid BIOS.

My second board acts the same as my first board I cannot O/C.

To anyone with this board, who doesn't mind reseting the RTC. Enable fan control in the Monitor section, this causes both of my boards to hang on reboot.
