User' s manual
Form Factor ATX Form Factor, 12"x 9.6"(30.5cm x 24.5cm)
Memory : G.E.I.L. DIMM 2 GB (Retail, GX22GB6400DC)
Videocard : ATI Radeon X1300 Pro 256 MB DVI TV out
Processor : Pentium D 3.4 Ghz, 800 Mhz FSB, 2x2 L2 Cache
DvD Burner : LG GSA-H10N
The first problem is that when i use windows Xp Pro 32 bit install cd. When it enters the setup it goes well until when the windows is starting after that i get the blue error screen. I've tried it with a IDE and Sata HDD and still it doesnt work. I've red the book but i could not find anything useful.
The second problem is the memory. It has the capacity of 800 Mhz dual channel. But when i start the pc i see that it has been degraded to DDR 533 Single Channel. And i have checked the Asus website but could not find anything to adjust the setting for DDR 800. And the funny thing is the motherboard is DDR800 Dual Channel capable. :P
Well i hope that i have given enough info to help me solve my problem.
Many Thanx
