Good tip. I have used the drivers that came with the board CD, and checked the site for an updated version. The motherboard is a new design, so maybe it needs something special for W2K. The plan was to stick with W2K a bit longer and then go Vista with a Direct-X 10 graphics board - so I do want to get this config working if possible.
