Hey Joe
  No, not on this nforce 4 board, I haven't.  As I mentioned there is very
little motivation beyond just seeing if I can.  However this mobo is a
replacement for an MSi nforce 3 board that Newegg stopped carrying right
about the time I ordered it so when it failed, I paid the difference to get
this Asus A8N-E, with which I am both pleased and impressed.  The only
downside is that Win98 which ran on the 64bit CPU w/ the nforce3, will not
on this.  That is barely even a price and in fact gives me some ironic
pleasure that it won't while the "inferior" and so-called quaint
OS/2 does.  Between Warp and Slackware Linux, I'm very satisfied.  IIRC I
did get the Marvell gigabit nic on the MSi board working but I can't swear
to it as I only had it for a little over 5 weeks and my memory isn't as
good as it used to be, especially with the number of PC's I've installed on
this year.  I might be able to dig up my notes if it's important to you. 
Just let me know and I'll do some digging.
Jimmy
