I purchased a DG965WH (pos) motherboard about 6+ weeks ago from Newegg. Spent at least a week trying to troubleshoot it -- would not post. I called Newegg to find out how to RMA the board -- the rep. told me I needed to contact the manufacturer (Intel) first; if they would not replace the board I could contact Newegg and see if they could help.
Intel agreed to replace the board. I got it to post -- thought everything was good -- and now, two reformats and five installs of XP SP2 later, the board crashes constantly (BSODs, Windows stop errors). Have done every update imaginable, rolled back drivers, simplified BIOS settings, etc. Same BSODs no matter what.
I called Newegg and explained the situation and asked if I could exchange this board for another similar product. NO WAY NO HOW. My board isn't the exact board they shipped, so they will not RMA it.
Just something to think about. Had I had any idea this could happen I would have tried my hardest to go through Newegg from the beginning. mcaren
