Having dealt with a long history of dfi and to a lesser extent abit boards since early nf2 days has taught me valuable lessons of patience when confronted with mobos and bios growing pains. That being said, the engineers seem eager to know about and try and address issues users are having. I think any hardware problems that you feel certain are bios related should be reported at http://ocss.msi.com.tw/. Hopefully it will benefit everyone. If you'll pm me an email addy I'll send you that bios file to try.
