Just installed the new mobo and the difference is amazing. It seems amazingly stable, I am very impressed with this board and would gladly buy intel in the future. Only problem is that it wont recognise one of my memory sticks so I have had to order a new set and I am going to sell the old ones...
Thanks to everyone who gave advice as it would have taken 2-4 longer to find the problem and be sure that I would have to do such a massive operation to fix the situation - if it were not for the advice I have been given
Now, soon... my project will be finished... thank the gods.
Just installed my Intel 865PERL after the PCI problems...

i believe this memory product is a good match with that motherboard. i used it recently and everything ran perfectly.
