    I had a -WTF- moment yesterday with that motherboard. As I was building up OS, the system dropped off the face of the planet into some sort of limbo/endless reboot situation. I spent about 5 minutes cursing (as in "GIGABUTT!!!, I'M TOO OLD FOR THIS NONSENSE!" and 10s more words ) before I regained my composure. After stripping all non-essential components, rechecking connections/cabling, looking for debris, (clearing CMOS alone did nothing), etc, the motherboard once again came to life. It sprung back with a warning about a POST error and suggested I choose "last known good" from its menu.. OK...

    All is well, for now..........

    EDIT : For the record, the above happened at stock speeds (NO OC) with a (test-bed) Celeron E1200 @ F2d rom.
