Thats it exactly. A good tip is not to over-tighten when installing a MB. Firm but fair. I've had probs getting this MB up and running under WindowsME with instability and poor performance in 3D games. The solution I found was not to install any ALI AGP driver. You might want to test it without before comparing to the performance after this driver is in place.
