In what order should I install the drivers for my system?
1.33
EPox8k7a+
256ddr
ATI radeon
SBLIVE
lynsys nic
60gb deskstar
specifically the ones that came with the motherboard CD. Because I keep having problems with the amd driver installing all the way, it always has trouble finding a specific file...

EPox8k7a+ - after all the windows updates are done do the via4in1's and any amd patch that may apply to you
256ddr
ATI radeon - shudder....after 4in1's, get latest drivers from rage3d.com
SBLIVE - shudder, after radeon
lynsys nic - should be ok to leave in while installing windows, so that when you first go into windows, it already used its drivers for it, update from msupgrade page.

I wouldnt bother with the cd drivers, get the latest 4in1's from icrontic or wherever.
also, im assuming you did a clean format??

i have the same mobo, cept i have a gf3 and a herc GTXP. this board is stable as a rock. only thing i complain about is that the ram almost touches my gf3, which isnt really anyones fault cept my own for picking this combo, also, my thermaltake blue orb wouldnt fit on the 761 chip, i think the capacitors were in the way, but i doubt i would have noticed much difference.

also, try getting the latest bios on biosmods.com....the 8k7a version will work with the plus version. i picked the one with the weed leaf 😉

also, whenever installing any driver, always do the options where you get to pick. makes things easier.

let me know if you need anything else.
