Default Re: MAGMA EXPANSION CHASSIS

I've had a LOT of problems with my Magma 64 bit, 7 slot chassis over the period of time I've had it. Fortunately, I currently seem to have things worked out. Knock on wood. It has consumed a lot of my time.

Don't expect an easy ride with this piece of hardware. There's more than one release version of the main circuit board (and the old version cannot be upgraded to the new).

Also, keep in mind that these boards can develop subtle problems that can drive you up the wall. Make SURE to test things thoroughly while you can still return it. Repair could easily cost you half again as much as you paid. If all the circuit boards need to be replaced, it'll cost you more than you paid.

Good luck.
