**Official ABIT IP-35 Pro Review/Overclock/Guide Thread**

[Ace-a-Rue]

I have to tell you it's been a while since I have said something like this, BUT the IP35 Pro is one, if not the BEST 3 series chipset boards available.

Those of you having frustrations need to be a bit more patient and read to determine your problems.

Every company has their lemons and defective products, but there is no doubt in my mind Abit is back on track. You get great BANG for your BUCK with this mobo.

i couldn't agree more with your observation about this board...the QuadGT was "ok" board...not enough bios support is my b*tch about that board...otherwise, it was fine....this board must have a different development team working on it and therefore, it SHOWS its STUFF!

Thank you to all who helped with my problems. It seems that my lock ups were a result of the Raid array. Well at least I now know why.

Thanks,

BUT...that doesn't solve why you had lockups with the raid array, which should not happen...which vista version were you installing on the raid array? was it 32 or 64 bit.

It was Vista 32bit Ultimate. Abit support didn't really help either.

were the lockups occurring on bootup or after you were in windows desktop?

what were you trying to do that caused the lockup?

EDIT...i understand why abit can't help...with your kind of problem, someone has to be right at your rig to do the analysis...very hard to do it over the phone.

The lockups happened during load testing. (ie: Prime95-any test and Memtest)
