I am one of the folks on the asus forum complaining about this board!
i'm convinced that just about aspect of this board is defective !!!!!
my first board lasted about 4 months the replacement from asus RMA
lasted 1 hour NO overclocking NO pci-e/pci cards NEW powersupply &
CPU??
I'm still not sure if it is bad bios's or bad fabrication that makes
this board a disaster. either way,it's
not worth the 20$ to return or the 2 month rma wait

Hello,
I have an ASUS P5RD1-V motherboard that I am having a bit of trouble
with. I've added a PCI-Express video card (an ASUS Extreme128 MB
N6600) to the motherboard. The PC boots up fine. Where I run into
problems is when I try to watch a DVD or play a game. After about 5
minutes Windows XP Pro will lock up completely and I have to turn the
PC off and on again. This problem does not occur when using the
onboard video. Unfortunately, the onboard video sucks for playing
games
The specs are as follows:
ASUS P5RD1-V motherboard
ASUS Extreme 128mb N6600 PCI-E video card.
Intel P4 530J 3.0 GHz processor
512MB Corsair "Value Select" RAM
Hitachi Deskstar 80GB SATA hard drive
Plextor 12x SATA DVD-RW drive
I have ran tests on the RAM and all tests pass with flying colors.
And, again, the problems only occur with the PCI-E card in the system.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Additionally, is anyone using this motherboard successfully with a
PCI-E video card? If so, what make and model?
I hate to have to tear down and return this motherboard. It was
fairly highly rated at newegg.com, and at one motherboard review site
I visited. I'm frustrated to say the least.
Many thanks for any replies.
