eed to poke around in my bios some more but my AMD 64 4200 dual core CPU is operating at 2200MHz? Is this normal? Does this mean each core is operating at this speed, or both? It's a bit faster than the XP 3000 that I was using on my old mobo, but nothing tht would call for a tickertape parade. Perhaps the juju is in the ability of these to handle heavier processing loads? Right now, I'm underwhelmed, but I haven't had a chance to really use this for anything other than booting Windows and loading drivers. ;oPHmmmm........just checked my system info and now it shows two CPU's each running at 2202MHz. This wasn't the situation last night. Also, the system is running faster this morning than it was last night when I was having problems with the drivers.......much faster. I'll post more about this as I get into it. Now that I've Ghosted the system drive, I'm getting ready to do the OS tweaking., load drivers, etc. I'll be coming up for air in a couple of hours.

nothing else is sharing with them.. I'm getting ready to install my UAD-1 cards. Now the question........I wondering if ACPI is intelligent enough so that even if I come up with the UAD-1 cards sharing IRQ's with the RME cards or other devices, they will still work. I seem to recall Brian T saying he had lots of stuff sharing and was having no problems. If I start having problems, I'm going to need to revert to standard PC mode. I have forgotten how to do this, short of reinstalling Windows. I wrote it down somewhere but I can't find it. If someone would be so knnd, it would be appreciated. Thanks, DeejI don't think you will have an issue with ACPI... but here it is: Device manager, Expand Computer Icon, Right click on ACPI PC and "update driver" - No, not this time - Next - Install from a list - Next - Don't search, I will choose - Next - Scoll down to Standard PC... you can figure it out from here (I hope). ;-) David.

Some good news. I have installed all of the mobo drivers, including the VIA 4in1 driver install, with the exception of the VIA AGP driver. There was an option to untick this so I did. Worked perfectly. Everything is coming along nicely now. I'm loading my RME Drivers and then I'm going to load the UAD-1 drivers and then install the cards. Hopefully the ACPI will work OK. If not, I'll try Standard PC..............if I can figure it out ;o) ; "Dave(EK Sound)" <audioguy_editout_@shaw.ca> wrote in message news:43a475e0$1@linux... > I don't think you will have an issue with ACPI... but here > it is: > > Device manager, Expand Computer Icon, Right click on ACPI PC > and "update driver" > > - No, not this time - Next > - Install from a list - Next > - Don't search, I will choose - Next > - Scoll down to Standard PC... you can figure it out from > here (I hope). > > ;-) > > David. > > > > DJ wrote: > > > My current isnstall is ACPI.

The real trouble started right after my driver load for the Houston controller hung when installing off the factory CD. I had to shut down Windows in mid stride and that's when everything went to hell in a handbasket. I had some other Houston drivers that I had downloaded and though these didn't hang the system, they didn't work either. I finally had so much wierdness happening that it eided up with having BSOD's. I removed it from device manager, uplugged the controller, went into safe mode and hunted down the driver and killed it by renaming it. Then I was still getting BSOD's so I uninstalled my UAD-1 software and they stopped. Reinstalled and they started again....the IRQ less than equal thing.....so I went back into saf
