To quote an earlier response of yours:
--------------------------
>>  Why are you so sure that it's truely putting out 180W??   Did you test  
>>it yourself?  And if it can put out 180W, how do you know that it's 
>>"clean" at that  power level?

>yes."
--------------------------

That seems to indicate that you said that you had tested the power supply to 
output 180W. Cleanly, no less.

Anyway, as I said earlier this really isn't that big of a deal. Noone really 
cares about power supplies. They are boring.
Yes, Tyan may admit that there is a problem with a certain motherboard when 
a low power PS is used. So? Use a better PS. That's what this whole thread 
turned into. Myself and others indicating that you can resolve the problem 
of the mobo not working properly with a very low output PS by using a better 
(and still cheap) power supply. I thought that my long response a few emails 
ago was clear to the point of being redundant, but I guess not.
So anyway, to summarize the thread:
1) Certain Tyan mobo's don't operate well (if at all) with weak PSs while 
certain other mobos with the same chipset do.
2) 1. can be resolved by using a good power supply.
3) Insulting people for calling you on false information, even when the 
information isn't of any particular importance, is not good netiquette.

Best regards,
