No POST? Call DFI
- Pros: Lots of features for inexpensive board - coax+optical digital audio, firewire, RAID,
- Cons: Older BOIS incompatible with Brisbane CPU - really a fault of Newegg for shipping "stale" boards
- Other Thoughts: Thanks to the other reviewers, I knew to call DFI (510-274-8000 Ext.117) and have them send me the current BIOS on a chip. Newegg was clueless as to how to exchange for a more recently manufactured board and just wanted to RMA the whole MB/CPU combo. Hard to believe they "have no way to contact" the warehouse. More likely just lazy...
Great board, great service
- Pros: Great features on this board. Excellant customer service at DFI. No hold time on the phone and immediate solution. I haven't actually been able to post the board yet, so I will leave it for now.
- Cons: Purchased the combo with Athlon 64X2 4000+. The problem was that the proc in the combo is a 65nm and the only way the board will recognize it is with the 02/07 bios update. Good luck flashing the bios when the board won't boot. Called DFI and they are sending me a new bios chip free of charge(this should be in the "pros" section).
- Other Thoughts: I am still thinking I will have a solid board. I just wonder if some of the "DOA" reviews are not due to this problem. Beware and research before buying a combo deal because these are not tested to play nice together. Newegg rocks though and I will buy here again and again.
