Congrats on getting it all up and running! That's no small accomplishment. It also sounds like you're near the point where the Zeus Machine is doing all the bootup and configuration options you want.

Thanks for the detailed report--made for interesting reading.

Have you tried a deja news search on the Iwill MB pin assignments? I bet you got a more recent version of the board, and the manual has yet to keep up.

Glad you like the MII. I didn't realize you could set virtual resolution with dimensions other than equal multiples of length and height--that's neat. Will look forward to any other info you share on how this best works for you.

Just a guess, but I'd be surprised if MB on the card would effect the virtual res resolution or color depth, since the card is only accessing the 1024x768 at one time. Is the online help very good on how to use these functions? I thought that the manual was only moderately helpful.

Sounds like you'll be able to boot to your heart's content!

I'm really pleased that you've had great success with partition magic. I find it indispensable.

I would opt for xcopy over windows explorer for file transfer myself (more controllable), but generally, I think PM is more reliable.

Will look forward to hearing more.

Regards,

Dave
