Noticed in this article that the reviewers were unable to use the Suspend to Ram and AGP Voltage adjustments on their 8K7A. Can any of you more recent EPOX 8K7A users shed any light on this? The Suspend to RAM feature will be particularly useful to me. The review spoke pretty highly on the Gigabyte and ASUS AMD761 boards too I thought.
thanks

Bummmmp in the night.
I realise that this is not a very pertinent question for OC'ing, but I have to share the machine with the "boss" and this would be a great feature (Suspend to Ram). Anyone? Comments?
BTW the review mentioned was a good comparison if you are trying to decide betwee the Gigabyte or the EPOX for DDR Socket A.

Well, I have a brand-new Epox 8K7A and I haven't seen anything about Suspend-to-RAM yet. I'd be willing to test it out for you if you want, just tell me how to see if it works. I won't be able to get back to the machine until about 5:30 PM EST or so, but I'd be willing to help.

LMK,
Nick

Hey thanks!
Well I don't have the motherboard yet either...but I should imagine it has to do with ACPI. Some kind of suspend function that leaves data in ram with minimum power so that it can restart quickly. It can probably be enabled in the control panel under power, which adds an option to the shutdown menu perhaps?
