Naw sir...Phoenix AwardBIOS 5.07 (03/19/2007); Core Ver 6; Build ID 71NAv3PrA2; oh yeah...and it's HP proprietary. Very limited what I can do in it...Did I mention I'm starting to despise name brand systems ?!?
After always building my own, and with this being my first OEM system, hard to get use to being so limited,.,but hey, like a famous poet once said, "...NEVERMORE". You can bet 'your next mule ride down the Grand Canyon' before the end of the year, I'll be back in there with my own custom system!!!
There may be some pin settings on the MB I might be able to change around, but I'm not really going to worry about it. My movies and audio plays good and smooth, system overall performs good enough to let me spend more time learning about *nix and Ultimate Edition, no major problems with anything I've throwed on here (even had that triple boot going on awhile back
)...so bottom line, life's pretty good and I'm just trying to help where I can
Appreciate the idea tho'
Might be something that jfg could look into tho'...catch ya'll later
