The Win2k installation > went smoothly. Linux, not so much. Hi Don, Last week I installed RH 9 on an ASUS A7V600. I know, its *not* the same board -- has different North and South Bridges. But the install went very smoothly. Could you could try Red Hat 9? In my (limited) experience, RH 9 seems to have slightly better hardware support than Fedora Core 1 (FC1 gave me *fits* with a certain 3Com NIC that had worked nicely w/ RH 9). I'm sure the Fedora project will improve over time but for the moment I'd try the slightly older distro. good luck, Ed -- Edward H.
