I was warned about the motherboard before I bought it, WHY?? There is nothing wrong with that motherboard -- I have three of them. You are at fault for trying to treat a consumer desktop 2P mobo as a high-end server one. People do not run 2GB DIMM's in an MSI K8T Master2-FAR. If you want >4GB RAM get an eATX 4+4 DIMM configuration motherboard from Tyan or Iwill. The MSI K8T Master2-FAR works fine with 1GB DIMM's. Where on MSI's website did they state 2GB double-stacked DIMM's were supported? -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org)
