hi, i bought a sata controller card for my msi kt4 ultra board a year or so ago, but i dont think my motherboard likes it- explorer has always locked up every so often since i added it, and i always have to end explorer.exe and restart it, very annoying. i think id be better off getting a motherboard with built in sata support- but im cool with the athlon 2 gig processor ive got, so i only need a good old socket a motherboard, not the newer stuff out- im thinking between biostar or msi- any of you guys have some advice? thanks in advance, josh
this one is a good one, http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/prod...2hvd19wcm9kdWN0X292ZXJ2aWV3&product_uid=79379
Hmm, only for UK peeps like me though, and stock doesn't look promising. Only one of the new batch unsold, and a week until that batch arrives. It's a good board though and astoundingly cheap. It's also very similar to my board bar the chipset. (6775, although this is a KT600 VIA to my knowledge). For US folks this is a good bet: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813138234 Nice good brand name and performance chipset. At $64 it's also quite cheap (although admittedly not as cheap as the UK model)
