>> Manuals ASUS manuals pretty good<< Asus manuals may be pretty good but Asus P2-B's web page asus.com lists the following features for the P2-B motherboard: Onboard Creative SB-Link Header CPU & Power Supply Temperature Headers Chassis Intrusion Heater SM Bus Header Next, when you try to look up these features in the Asus manual, a link is provided on the P2-B page to download the manual in pdf format, you find the Onboard Creative SB-Link Header and Chassis Intrusion Heater items do not appear in the manual. And you have to read between the lines to figure out what the CPU & Power Supply Temperature Headers and the SM Bus Header items mean. I am not disputing your judgement Networm as to whether the Asus manual is a good or bad manual but instead pointing out an example how user unfriendly many of the motherboard manuals are. It is problems like these that make it very difficult and time consuming for the first time computer builder to assemble a a computer.
