Re: Nforce network controller card...
Dumb nforce, more likely. I dumped that board because I couldnt get dual core + Vista + AGP (Even Nvidia) working, dual core + Vista + ATI AGP doesn't even load the drivers. Basically the graphics crashed every so often. Moving to single core solved it as did installing the XP AGP drivers (but that caused other problems with overlay and directx) but the main issue was nvidia not releasing a completely vista compliant AGP driver and refusing to admit the platform worked, even though Asrock say it does and MS certified the board compatible.
In the end I just bought a new board with PCI Express.

What annoyed me a bit is that I bought all my bits and bobs from overclockers (went by reviews). Looked yesterday and they don`t have that mobo anymore! Funny that. Poor driver support from Nvidia/Asrock imvho. I knew about the vista probs but that is my main pc for music and gaming which I just wanted XP on, have vista on my lappy.
Mind you I actually like the board on the whole, touch wood the only prob soo far which now is fine.
