3 different mobos. 1 AMD (really old), 1 Intel, 1 AOpen. The AOpen 
finally succeeded,
but only on a certain PCI slot. I was really surprised that the Intel 
board didn't work. It
was an D815EEA2 model and it's perfectly reliable otherwise. I'm still 
using it in another
machine.  The AOpen board is an S661gxm-u.

Actually, I'm hoping to replace the cheap AOpen board with an Abit IC7-G 
soon. I
sure hope it works. :)
