This board is pretty good. I might have found a way to fix the keyboard issue. I will post a SS in a few of how I fixed it.

Ok guys. Turn this option I circled to "OFF"or "Disabled" and it should fix the keyboard disabled on startup. It worked for me.

Well a few weeks back i up-date to a new case(cooler master HAF932) and water cooling(cooler master Aquagate Max) here a few pic.
Thats SWEET Merk... I'm jealous!!

nice clean set up Merkk1. Great looking case. How is the quadfire treating you?
Thank you guys .
Well crossfire been good to me i started with with a 2 card setup ran that for a few months than move up to a 3 video card set up . I ran that for a few months then when to the 4 card setup and it been running trouble free for me .The real truning point for my setup was when i update my mother board to my Foxconn a79a-s +sb750 on my old DFI board with the sb600 i was having hit and miss with the ATI drivers after changing over to the new board + sb750 every driver 8.6 on up have install trouble free and work good running vista-64 . I realy think ATI make there drivers for vista frist Xp is a after thought for them now . The cooler master HAF932 case got to be one the best case out on the market right now and new egg has the case on sell right now to http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811119160 this case make it easy to do a clean setup on your rig .

Oh sh#t! I've been jonesin' for that case....it's so damn nice! The Egg's got it on sale for $120+SH (and tax for me, crap), but haven't pulled the trigger.
/edit.....OK. merkk1 already stated the sale at NewEgg. Got so exited when I saw it, didn't read all the posts!

It should, even the older boards with SB600 are supporting the AM3 CPU's so you should be all set with just a BIOS update.
Well I'm asking because I seen this http://forums.vr-zone.com/showthread.php?t=359460. Then another guy on a different forum emailed foxconn and asked and they said "We do not plan on supporting those or have information about it at this time" so I'm kinda pissed.

Foxconn tech support is fail. I keep asking them to update the bios for the keyboard issue and they keep blaming it on my hardware and OS. Damnit foxconn come on.

Saaya works for foxconn, maybe he can help get you info

I am also concerned about this, but since the Deneb power requirements aren't awful... it should just be a minor bios update. I have read somewhere (here?) that the next level down in the Foxconn MB's does not "recognize" the Deneb chip but it works fine even without a bios update. (And it overclocks very well too.)
The Foxconn is not like when I had my Gigabyte DS5 board and the company decided to not bother officially supporting the 9850 or 9950 because they had some problems with the power regulation. The Gigabyte DOES work with my 9850... but I have a chip that is on the border of being "bad". I had to underclock the NB to 1.8Ghz to get it stable on that board. With the Foxconn... if I give it added CPU PLL voltage... I can get the NB to 2.2Ghz easily. But the Gigabyte didn't have that setting.
ALSO: I don't know if anyone else has seen this... but I always have to go back to STOCK on the NB speed when I update the Catalyst drivers or it won't see my second video card in Crossfire. (I read they may have fixed this issue with the newest driver beta.)

What BIOS problems are you having exactly? Mine has been really good to me.
Particle's First Rule of Online Technical Discussion:
As a thread about any computer related subject has its length approach infinity, the likelihood and inevitability of a poorly constructed AMD vs. Intel fight also exponentially increases.
Likewise, the frequency of a car pseudoanalogy to explain a technical concept increases with thread length. This will make many people chuckle, as computer people are rarely knowledgeable about vehicular mechanics.
Rule 2:
When confronted with a post that is contrary to what a poster likes, believes, or most often wants to be correct, the poster will pick out only minor details that are largely irrelevant in an attempt to shut out the conflicting idea. The core of the post will be left alone since it isn't easy to contradict what the person is actually saying.
Rule 2A:
When a poster cannot properly refute a post they do not like (as described above), the poster will most likely invent fictitious counter-points and/or begin to attack the other's credibility in feeble ways that are dramatic but irrelevant. Do not underestimate this tactic, as in the online world this will sway many observers. Do not forget: Correctness is decided only by what is said last, the most loudly, or with greatest repetition.
When it comes to computer news, 70% of Internet rumors are outright fabricated, 20% are inaccurate enough to simply be discarded, and about 10% are based in reality. Grains of salt--become familiar with them.
Remember: When debating online, everyone else is ALWAYS wrong if they do not agree with you!
Random Tip o' the Whatever
You just can't win. If your product offers feature A instead of B, people will moan how A is stupid and it didn't offer B. If your product offers B instead of A, they'll likewise complain and rant about how anyone's retarded cousin could figure out A is what the market wants.
Well in my e-mail to Foxconn all they would tell me is that it take time for the cpu team to make sure it will work with the mother than come up with the bios update . In the same e-mail i also ask are you going to support Phenom 2 (940) cpu yes or no .They didn't anwser on the last part so i don't know what going to happen .

I was wondering what your debug LED says for whoever is running this board. Mine says 40 and I have no Idea what that means. It used to say AA.

Actually....
I'm thinking... and being drunk that is dangerous: But generally when I make a decision drunk... I follow through. Unless it is a bad idea.
Anyway... I'm thinking about getting a Danger Den black series case. (DUH: Of course WITH a complete Danger Den water cooling system which includes my Crossfire video: It would only be about $500.00 or so. I want not only COOL... but also silence. OH. And if it looks really cool... that would be a good bonus.)
OOPS... that is NOT for the A79A-S.

Oh good for us that you failed to put another bold tag around your posts...
Please,stop using bold tags and HUGE fonts and stop requesting benchmarks from members that are tied with the NDA!
NDA will be lifted on the launch day and it's 8th of January.
What is not possible?SoF already said that he won't break his NDA. The results on the internet are leaked and not official.Most were done with low NB clocks and beta BIOS versions.
Again,don't ask members with NDAs to show you results you wish since it wont happen.Wait like the rest or go and read the "many test are in internet, screen and review".
I replaced my LaingUltra with an Laing D5 vario and an 2x5,25" danger den reservoir (that would not fit in there black serie case). If I run the pump at lowest speed and the five slinx xtreme fans at lowest speed it's really very silent and requires only round 12W AC. WC parts (see sig beside pump) set me off ~350€ with all the tubbings and so on. I assume it will also handle two gfx cards, but maybe not at lowest speeds.
