I am very dissapointed with this motherboard, when I bought it I went and installed one Creative sound card via PCI and immediately the sound card wasn't working and the connection with the internet (wire) was disconnected. When I put out the sound card internet connection was back. I went to the store and told them that the motherboard has problem and they told me that the sound card was the problem. Now I decided and bought a new Creative sound card (PCI Express this time) and again the same. The internet connection is disconnected. The thing is that now I don't even have warranty for the motherboard. So please, any help would be appreciated to solve my problem. I am not sure but I thing in the first sound card it was giving me an irq message, this time for now because I just installed the sound card it doesn't give me yet (I haven't installed the drivers of Creative yet).
