Like everything else in this screwey process, I have had to partially
retrograde the BIOS on my Matrox P750 AGP card in order to get it to display
the retrograded system BIOS that is necessary for the ASUS A8V-Deluxe to
work without the new *USB over current "feature"*. I can now boot my
computer normally and enter the BIOS.

Gee, I can't wait until my new (and now discontinued Gigabyte 939 NForce 3)
mobo gets here so I can start this process all over again.

I think it will take me about a month to want to even start thinking
about going through this yet again..........however, it will be nice to have
certain features that are available on that board si I'm going to do it.

Now, it's time to optomise the OS on this system.............oh joy!!!!

;o)

um...isn't that the mobo with the voltage troubles on the usb ports that
won't find the synrcosoft key for nuendo? just thought I'd ask in case
you'd not encountered it.... ps: that the reason I had to get rid of
mine...

Jeff..........perhaps that is the reason for the *USB over current* message.
Maybe this dongle triggers some kind of evil spirit in the
1017 bios in these mobo's. The secret is to use an earlier BIOS that does
not display this message. I think it's a bug in the BIOS, not the dongle.
I've got everything here on voltage regulators and I doubt it's an issue
with my peripheral hardware.

Anyway, I'm using BIOS v1014 and this thing is rocking right along now. It
feels very stable so far, but I haven't really put it under any stress yet.
That will come later today.
