It's been out since november, I among many cannot boot with the new IDE driver installed.

Anyone with an Abit NF7-S rev. 2.0 motherboard will have problems with nvidias somewhat new drivers

i have an nf7-s r2, i agree with hawklen has anyone had any problems?? beucase ive heard bad stuff about the newest nf2 drivers

nightfox_pc_asst · 16-January-04, 03:31 PM

That would explain why I can use it and others can't. I have found that using the nVidia System Utility and from personally looking at the board, that its a r1.0 board...

I wonder if anyone has contacted nVidia or Abit over this issue....??

Thanks Hawk, Tek and WDog for that info, I will make sure I get some more 1.2 or 1.0 boards in the future for the clients I build computers for..

WDoG · 18-January-04, 03:22 AM

whoa whoa.....did u say that u WANT to get more 1.2 or 1.0 boards....no no no if your gonna get an abit get an nf7-s REV 2.0!!!

jcarkeys · 18-January-04, 10:11 AM

Yeah, you should only get 2.0. And if you are getting new, that's the only thing you can buy nowadays.

And I was hoping this was an updated version of the driver that would work when I saw this thread

Ya WDog, this system is reaching its first b-day Feb 23rd when I built it from my tax refund...Back then the boards were only 1.0 or 1.2.

I just wish I could get some of the older versions cause my clients are as up-to-date as all of you peeps here, and they would do just that, download the drivers to find out they don't work then come screaming at me cause the computer is broken...lol

Thanks for info though, I may change out this board and use the newer one, but I have heard mixed reviews about it...Booting problems, AGP and Windows XP etc etc...

Chow for now...

Keep it pimpin!

??? I've got a V1.0 NV2 Gigabyte board that I used those drivers on. Was it supposed to suck?

TekXoID · 18-January-04, 09:56 PM

We're talking NF7-S here BA.

BigAkita · 18-January-04, 09:59 PM

Kewl, just caught the driver stuff. Thought I was supposed to be screwed...Never Mind.
