Hi, I had the exact same problems as you but my motherboard was an older "revision 1.0" of Epox 4G4A+ (both 845G's). My first board had Epox logo on the heat sink and I had all sorts of problems with video card. I have a Geforce 3 Ti 200 OC'ed to 240/500 and it never worked with my first...

The USB ports work in USB 1.1 mode once you disable the USB 2.0 feature in the 2822 BIOS. One of the MAIN REASONS I bought this motherboard was the lure of 6 USB 2.0 ports not 1.1. USB 1.1 is slow as hell. Anyways, more and more USB 2.0 devices will become available, we will see more and more...

Hi, I am running 2822 right now and I see no difference between this and 2424 or other intermediate ones. The new option in 2822 bios to turn off USB 2.0 sounds extremely suspicious to me (see my posts on USB 2.0 not working with my new Yamaha external USB 2.0 burner). I think Epox found...

Hi, I just purchased a new Yamaha F1 USB 2.0 external CDRW drive. Everytime I tried to burn a CD using the latest NERO software 5.5.9.9, the software would just hang and the CDR drive would just keep spinning. I've tried everything, I did a clean reinstall of XP, I tested with all 6 USB ports...
