<DIV>Thanks. thats really helpful.</DIV>

<DIV>I do have one more question: Anyone used or is using the Gigabyte GA-7N400 Pro 2 motherboard under Linux?? I have checked SuSE's website and according to their hardware database it is partially supported but they don't say which part is not supported. Although I would prefer to use this motherboard, its cousin the GA-7N400 is supported, anyone had experience with it??</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have accepted the challenge and my New Year's resolution is to switch over to Linux asap! And so I will!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My next email will be from SuSE 9 using the Live CD!!! speak to you shortly!!</DIV>
