    VIA chipset means this card is to be avoided.
    Lot's of compatibility problems with many chipsets. Cripples VIA chipset motherboards.
    Surprisingly, it works with intel's chipsets. Go figure.

    Yea like #1 said, avoid Via and go with NEC instead. Easy to find for around the same price or less.

    Yup, NEC chipset always seems to work with Norton Ghost, whereas the via rarely does.
