| I was able to install the new board. I no longer get a keyboard error/not found message. It boots to the hard drive and stops after loading the SDD. When I press CTL-ALT-DEL to reboot, it shows a trap message. At the top it shows that it is a UART problem or error in it. Just when I solve one problem, I run into another. Would using the AGP video card that I had before make a difference? I am using the on board video and onboard audio. I will try to use the AGP video card to see if it makes a difference. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. BigWarpGuy - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - OS/2 Warp-ed/eComStation-ed to the very end. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - |

| Hi BigWarpGuy, You might want to try un remming the following line in config.sys (if you are using ECS) to see if that helps. cytan

| VIA chipsets seem to have USB interupt problems with the on board soundcard.. Diasabling the soundcard could help. Chris. |

| Thanks. I will give both a try. It is truly appreciated. With my computer being down so long, it is like a geek version of a Greek tragedy. |

I tried both; one at a time. Now I am back online. I still have to install programs and drivers (audio drivers and get more colors and higher densities). I am a happy camper. Thanks for the help. It is appreciated.

| I thought I would mention my experience with the EPIA-M miniITX mobo. I had the same error while installing eCS 1.1 last year. SIO isn't the problem as I had discovered. In hind sight, perhaps I might have been wrong. However, I discovered by going with VGA as the default video, and then downloading the Scitech video driver, all was well. I was never able to get sound working. Please let me know if you do. Also, for the Scitech driver, I used VBE mode as the S3 chipset was not on the list of supported list. VBE mode allows for multiple resolutions and is decent for what I do. The miniITX isn't a gaming platform, as selecting WXP Windows XP), and running UT2003 (Unreal Tournement 2003) is a miserable experience of dropped frame rates. Best of luck and keep us posted. |
