I have an AMD FX-60 and the regular (32 bit I think) version of XP pro ...?
The version of Windows. All processors that fit the board are 64bit.

cool. I am up and running. Everything seems to be fine. Just something curious though !......


In my taskbar is what appears to be a "Safely Remove Hardware" Icon like I had an USB device plugged in. The only thing is when I click on it, it displays my RAID 0 Raptors and wants to to know if I want to Stop them etc....Did I miss something ?? How do I get rid of that ??

I just got my A8N32 board back from RMA...when booting up I can never see the BIOS post screen, all I get is a black screen up until the XP loading bar comes on...anyone else experiencing this or know of a way to fix it?

*to get into the BIOS I now just blindly hit the DEL key when I see the black screen and I'm able to enter the BIOS but I want to see the full load screen

Mine never shows Bios on boot either. No system I've used ever did. Why would you want it to show on boot?

I don't mean the actual BIOS...I'm talking about the loading screen before the XP loading bar comes up...where it checks your memory, shows your BIOS version, etc etc...
