Comments, Questions & Reviews:
Instant Boot? by Ewan
Does this mobo support ASRock's Instant Boot function?
Yes it does.
Windows 7 by Windows 7
Hi guys,
just wanted to know if this motherboard would need a seperate graphics card to run windows 7 or is the onboard one satisfactory.
Thanks
Hi the onboard graphics will work with Windows 7, for better overall system performance we would recommend adding a dedicated graphics card.

Would this motherboard support unbuffered ram?
Yes.
Windows XP by Tarrash

Yes.
gr8 little MB by Luke Boskett
used this for a xp build with 2GB of arianet ddr2 ram(pc2-6400) an intel pentium dualcore e5200, 500gb hitachi sata2 hdd and a 24x sata dvdrw, with xp it went very fast and the onboard gpu worked like a dream, but would recomend a more powerful board if u are thinking of useing vista/7 X64.
gr8 4 the price though, no faults.
Was this review helpful to you?

Response by vip
More powerful GPU for Windows Vista / 7 is a good idea yes... But can be added to this boards PCI-E slot anyway... Great board :)
