MSI K8N Neo2 Tips
Evening folks,
I'm on the laptop now with my P4 parts transferred into my friend's computer.
What I need to know is any tips, and/or recommendations for setting up this motherboard. Saturday is my planned build date since I have to do some work on the water cooling. If you can tell me anything that will make the process as smooth as possible I'd greatly appreciate it.
Of course I plan on OC'ing but don't plan on doing that until it has a few days to burn in.

I finally did the complete system upgrade today. Thanks for all the tips, they sure helped! The only two problems I had were.
1. Video worked until I tried to boot into windows. Unattended install CD installed the wrong drivers; installed correct drives in safe mode.
2. Stable and great so far except it doesn't like the Trillian Alpha. It's locked up twice with it, other than that fine. I've added it to wep so far so good.
Probably the worst thing in the build was putting the bracket on for my Hydrocool WC setup.
I plan on OC'ing later this week!!

Thanks...
I do have a question though. From my old nforce2 days I remembered how much the IDE drivers sucked. The question is should I install these for the nforce3? |

im using the latest 2.7 ide drivers from nvidia right now. i havent ran into any issues, infact i have never had any issues with the ide drivers. try them out. if they work great if not, just install the standard ide drivers over them. no big loss.
