[SLUG] ECS K7S5A

I bought (without first searching the net for reviews. Ugh!) three (3)
ECS K7S5A motherboards. I have been trying to set these turkeys up and
get them to run, not having a lot of luck.

My wife's old PC Chips MB gave up the ghost with a loud pop and smoke
yesterday so I tried, since it was turkey day, to get one of these ECS
monsters running. I'm about half way home. It only takes 20 minutes to
load the OS but it still hangs at the slightest excuse.

Has anyone else been as foolish as I. If so, (and I'll keep it in
strictest confidence) please tell me what you did to get this turkey to fly.

I paid $45 each on Ebay plus shipping so I'd like to get at least one of
them running. It does not have to do much as my wife runs Windblows.

Thanks,

Paddy
