I have this Foxconn A7DA-S motherboard with the following other hardware:
Athlon X2 4850e
2Gigs-Wintec AMPX (3AXT6400C4)
WD 6400
LG GGC-H20LK
Also Nero 8 with Blu-Ray plugin.
I can't get Blu-Ray movies to play smoothly. As soon as the video starts, the CPU usage goes up to 100% and the video becomes jerky. The sound is OK sometimes, then will get very bad. Foxconn support is trying to help, but their response time is glacial. Thought I'd throw out a line here.
Last night I did a reinstall of XP Pro with Cat 8.9 and the latest drivers from the Foxconn website. BR performance still very poor.
On a side note, the driver CD supplied with the mobo had only a few drivers on it (for XP, anyway), downloading drivers from Foxconn is very slow, and I'm getting very frustrated with this model.
Any help or fresh ideas to help me get this board performing as advertised will be welcome! TIA
