Is there anybody out there in Australia using this motherboard?
The motherboard drivers cd was not with the motherboard when I got it
and I
have downloaded everything from the ASUS site but I still can't find the
driver for ACPI \ ATK0103 High Precision Event Timer and I was wondering
if
anybody else is having this problem.



V,
Look on the Downloads Page under Utilities at the very bottom. You
should find it there.

There were two problems in device manager and that fixed the ACPI \ ATK0110
problem but not the ATK 0103 problem.
I read a post in Google where one bloke said that this driver automatically
loads when you load the motherboard drivers from the motherboard cd but was
not of any more help. I just find it odd that this is so but I guess he
could be right as I have no way of proving it. Getting another motherboad is
out of the question for me at this time.


V,
The drivers on the ASUS website aren't always the newest. You might download therm direct from nVidia. If your using WinXP(32bit) I believe you have a 405/6100 chipset on your board. If so, try here:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/nforce_nf4_winxp32_8.26_11.09.html
If the error is related to the brains of the board that may cure the issue. Might have something to do with AMD Cool N' Quiet as well! Do you have it enabled in BIOS?
