    Epox MB

    Hello all, I have a Epox 9nda3+ sitting here and was thinking of using it for a spare build. I have been trying to do some research online to see if it will run a dual core 939 pin AMD cpu. I have found a couple of people who claim to be running a 3800 and the other a 4400. I cannot find alot of info on this board as it is not supported any more. I have three single core 64 bit cpu's here that I could use, one is a 3200 V one is a 3700SD and the last is a 4000SD. It will be running vista. Thanks.

    Hello again, I installed the mainboard in another case I have here. I used the 3700 AMD San Diego and 2 gigs of Corsair XMS I had to see if the mainboard would go. All went well I installed Vista home premium. I got it on line ect...
    So then I decided to add two more sticks of the same ram. After the ram was installed the computer would only see 3 gigs and the onboard nic would not work rendering the computer useless for getting online. I pulled the two sticks and I was able to go back online. I have not had the chance to test the sticks i pulled yet. I fear the mainboard has issues or I have a bad stick of ram, but it does not make sense to me why it would affect my onboard ethernet port. Any thoughts? thanks

    Get over 3 GB of ram and yes with Vista 32-bit, I would expect problems like that.
    So I never exceeded 2 GB.

    But you maybe right also. if the sticks are not close enough in spec's, you can get all kinds of hair pulling errors.!!
