[QUOTE="imported_SuXoR, post: 169884, member: 7931"] I did a quick search on your problem. http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/13212?o=20 From this source I would say that you need to flash your bios to the newest version. that may suck because at the time of writing this asus's support site is down. It seems that there is a conflict with the original bios and agp cards. Also, it looks like you want to populate slots 1 and 3 with your ram. Another good policy is to be sure that you have a good (name brand) power supply of at least 300 watts. Personaly, I have abandoned via chipsets after my first and last bad experience with them. I had several abit kt133 raid boards with major issues. I have since used intel, sis, and nvidia chipsets with great success. If you cannot solve this issue quicly, then I would recommend buying a new board with the n-force 2 chipset. I just looked for the two boards that I have used with great success, but it seems that no one is carrying them anymore. They were asus a7n8x-vm400 and msi k7n2gm2-lsr. Good luck, and sorry I don't have time to help more. [/QUOTE]
