JW, It's interesting you mention the printer port being bad because I also couldn't install my printer on an enabled USB port. I figured I'd deal with the monitors first. d.

To Thread, Jon e-mailed that my replacement mobo was shipped today. Would someone comment a quick/easy way to exchange boards? 1-Write/print screen all current BIOS configurations 2-Install new board. plug in keyboard, not install any cards, turn on and set BIOS per old settings 3-Install new board, install all cards, ide and other cables. turn on, hit DEL and then set BIOS configurations. Save and re-boot. 4-Install mobo, keyboard, set BIOS and install one device at a time as ZP's instructions were for the original setup. Keeping fingers crossed parallel and USB ports along with all slots are OK. Your thoughts would be appreciated Regards, /jw ps; I offered to buy old board for a practice machine but Jon said he would have to return to Abit for a replacement. I understand
