I've had Windows systems unstable due to crappy motherboards. Sometimes you just got to face it that crap is crap. With motherboards you simply don't know how they are going to work until you try them. I don't see why this is harsh though, the retailer simply returns the board to the manufacturer, who has to deal with problems that they caused. Ted
