Let me start by saying:I am so FUCKING stupid.
A)I am still testing, but my gut feeling is there is nothing wrong with the OC possibilities on this chip.
B)Never, and I mean NEVER f**k with a masters work(OPUS).
C)A 300 power supply will probably work fine.
D)No matter what a manual says, cable select does not always work-I think, and I feel this was the basis of my problem.

I brought my system home after Opus put it together for me. I then proceeded to test some things:
LIKE, would my drives transfer better on the controller card, than off the onboard controller?
Answer,
Not much!
SO,
when I put the thing back together, being a newbie and all, I set it up cable select.
After bringing home a new power supply tonight, and trying to fire the thing up, it would not reboot. Then it hit me(as it should have a week ago), when Opus set this up, he set it up a certain way where the main drive was on the first cable connector set to master, then the CDrom was set to slave. Then on secondary, I had the CD-RW. On the controller card was my audio drive as master. Then on his machine the removable(and audio drive I think) was set to master,and
on secondary, the CD-RW as slave. He had a problem one night when I was over, with the cable select BS and the main APP drive, SO, I switched it and you guessed it booted NO Problem. I am not done testing yet and my nerves are still a little frazzled by all of this and I will say this for fear of Karma, Voodoo,or whatever: Costa Rica, I am sorry for all the name calling that has persisted in your behalf. I was upset and didn't mean a word of it! I may like to visit someday, and do not want to be welcomed as the TOWN ASS!
Anyway, I think I am finally coming up for air and would also like to thank Opus for his patience, and I know this is going to cost me a good night of partying, provided I am out of the woods. I will finish this off in the morning!

JT(a humbled man, indeed!)
