Please consider the groups this is posted into. The following groups were
used:

 comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.tools.misc	Inappropriate
 comp.lang.pascal.delphi.misc			Inappropriate
 comp.lang.asm.x86				Inappropriate
 ba.market.computers				On topic
 alt.sys.pc-clone.gateway2000			On topic
 alt.internet.guru				Inappropriate

There are better groups for talking about motherboards. Try
comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware.misc or comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware.systems.
Try to avoid the language groups, they are not interested.
