As can be found on google there have been many issues with this chip but I'm suspecting in my case it's not only the chip but also a rotten BIOS. Anyway, after upgrading at least fedora worked (it's down again for some strange unknown reason). I installed many fedora machines over the past years, but never came along a mainboard like this (MSI P965 Neo). This is causing so much issues that I think that if I can't solve it by tomorrow I buy me another board. > One solution to try would be booting from a rescue CD and > re-installing grub.

I guess I may to do that if grub keeps failing on me, but I'm not yet at a point where I give up on this box. I will give it try just to see if windows boots well again though. regards, Marcel
