[NTLUG:Discuss] Hardware issues... motherboard

[micky hotmail]

Not to be pestimistic or anything, but i've had BAD luck w/that MB.  Every
time I would put any type of creative sound blaster PCI modem in it, it
would turn on, but w/o video or a single beep.
Still haven't figured out that problem yet....
