I can understand that you might be frustrated, but you need to help
yourself by providing some useful information.  "Didn't work" is way to
general a problem description.  You'll get sympathy, but not much specific
help.  If you look at

 http://www.os2voice.org/VNL/past_issues/VNL0205H/vnewsf2.htm

You will find that folks have been using your board or one very similar
for at least a year.

That said, your board is not going to work well with older versions of
OS/2 or eCS.  You need a recent OS/2 kernel to properly support the AMD-64
(I suspect) you have installed.  You need the the latest DANIS506 drivers
to support your SATA (I suspect) drives.  You need the latest eCS 1.2MR if
you want a smooth install from CD.

There are several other issues to apply to some setups.  When you provide
specific problem reports, these can be dealt with if they apply to your
setup.  This applies to your transplant attempts too.

Regards,

Steven
