Most Favorable Review

Great System for the price

Pros: Inexpensive small business system. Easy configuration. Use with one or two 1080 phones for auto attendant and voice mail.

Cons: No music on hold. This is the one feature that I wish it had.

Overall Review: Would by again if it had music on hold.

Comments: I have been working to get my XP MCE edition working for 3 weeks. Had all the standard problems getting the OS loaded onto SATA due to poor documentation and trying to get the right drivers loaded (must have a floppy). Had the Checksum errors after updating BIOS but powering down and a reboot solved that. Once loaded the board seems stable enough. This board will not opperate with a Hauppauge PVR500MCE. Hangs at BIOS post. After a lot of looking on the web it seems that there is a problem with the VIA chipset and the 500. I have tried to get tech support to tell me if a new BIOS is coming but that is an engineering question that they can't help with. So, if you want to use the Hauppage PVR500 look to another board. Otherwise seems like an average board. Rating 2 for the poor documentation on SATA setup.

Don't use w/ Asus Board

Comments: I have had nothing but pain and misery since trying to get this card to work with my Asus board. I am going to have to change one or the other. Quick shipping on the product though!
