Hello all, I have a quick question as to if any of you "Technical GURUs" have any experience with AcerOpen motherboards. I specifically mean the APV5M. I know the compliance for Year 2000 is ok, but I have some questions about the BIOS. I realize some boards may ship with different BIOS chips, but I'll ask anyway. It comes with an AMI BIOS (American Megatrends BIOS. I know it supports 2.1 GIg dirves, currently what I have in my system, but can it support higher gig drives? I tried installing an 8.4 but no dice. I think I need a BIOS upgrade. Also E-z Drive had no effect on it either. If any know of where to get some info or have experience with this board, I would appreciate it. I have had no luck with the manual and AOpen's web site only has the flash upgrade, but no specifics. My Bios AMI Rev. 2.6 Flash available is Rev. 2.7 TIA.
