Hey, Moderator! How about an official thread for the SOLTEK SL-75FRN-L?

Ill second that, I bought one a week ago and am very happy with it even though it took awhile to figure out with all the different setting but things are good now. I am running a XP2100 @ xp2800 speeds 13.5x168fsb with a stick of XMSPC2700. Only complaint is there is no support for 4.1 speakers that I can find, I am not able to get the rear ones to work so if any one has a suggestion it would be great and yes I have read the manual as far as setting up for 6.1 but still no rear speakers.:(

Might get a better chance of seeing this by putting in 'Forum Issues'.

Not likely only because we haven't seen a ton of threads about this Soltek board as compared to the other boards we have threads dedicated to at the top of the motherboard forum. There's a lot more interest in the A7N8X (D), 8RDA(+), 8SQ800/SINXP1394, etc. in other words.

Actually, what Evan says is very encouraging. Either few people are buying these boards, which is unlikely considering the price, or they have posed few problems. Hmmm... elementary my dear Watson. :)

Yes, I have a dozen different motherboards on my plate, including Soltek's IGP motherboard. You'll see a review of Soltek's IGP board, in addition to MSI, AOpen and possibly Biostar and Albatron.

I just received my Soltek 75-MRN-L and it's working rather well. I only have DDR2100 RAM so haven't been able to get very far on the FSB side oc'ing my 2100+ B but it's working well at 133MHz so far. And it's easy enough to play with the settings for OC'ing. Any questions please send 'em my way and I'll try and answer.

You've got mine :( I am going to try to figure out where PCI/AGP Lock is, where are the other FRN-75 L owners?

I got mine as well..I am waiting for my Mushkin PC3200 ram and my Radeon 9800. I am hoping to have the system
up and running within a week ...its all pretty much depending on the 9800 arrival at this point.
