Question about new motherboards

[NormanTheCow]

I've been wanting to buy a new motherboard. I heard alot about the new Abit KT7A and other similar motherboards. My question is that since these motherboards are new, will there be problems? and if so how do those problems get fixed? Through BIO updates? I am not a computer expert so I don't know much. I am just wondering because if I decide to buy a new KT7A and there is a problem, will I have to send the motherboard back to the sellers or manufacturer to get it fixed or I just have to download files and it'll fix the problems.

Thanks!

Of course when you buy a new motherboard you have to expect some problems. BIOS releases combined with chipset .inf (Like VIA patches) or even some Windows updates can eventually solve most problems. The question is, are you ready for the possible frustration?
