Am using without problems. Tell me about you're configuration.

jack, i'm desperately trying to decide between the A7V333 and A7V8X. what results are you getting with that board and what's your configuration? your input will help me make the decision.

thanks!

Here's my configuration:

A7V8X MOBO
Athlon XP2200+ clocked at 1850Mhz
512MByte 400Mhz RDRAM
Maxtor 80G 7200 RPM system drive (ide)
WDC 120G 7200 RPM audio drive (ide)
GeForce 2 video adapter
DIGI 001 sharing IRQ16 with video adapter and modem
DirectPro 24/96 sharing IRQ17 with firewire & SCSI controllers
BIOS defaults except power management
Basic tweaks to operating system

With the this setup I get 32+5 with the DaveC test. I have had no stability issues.
Hope this helps.

thanks so much for the detailed info.

i'll weigh up the details and go from there. looks like i might actually go with an older gigabyte board...

Hi Jack ,thanks for the reply i have not done any tweaks.The problem is that PT is very unstable and feezes.Also, every time i try playing some audio files,Windows keep telling me that there is no sound card instaled,even though i can see digioo1 in the divice manager tab,i also have the Wave driver instaled.What the slot you have Digi on,i have on 2.
Here is my configuration.
A7V8X,AhlonXP 2400

I'm in slot 2 also. Are you getting any error messages when PT freezes? Are you running any other apps?
