Biostar 6100-M9 motherboard issue

[machinist]

Firstly, does anyone on here have one of these ?

If so, then please help.
I've just built a PC for a friend, and when windows is loading, it stutters What I mean by that is, when the blue 'knight rider' lights are rolling across the XP load screen, they stop for a few seconds, then restart, then stop, and do this for 4 or 5 times, then it all kicks in to life and is fine

I'm stumped, and I'm no newbie at PC building.

My thoughts are it could be the LAN port drivers, so when I get home tonight, I'm gonna reformat, upgrade BIOS, and try different LAN drivers.

Any help appreciated

It doesn't normally do it "4 or 5 times", but it is normal on most installations. I find it happens when it's kicking USB devices back into action, after the BIOS initially does it. It could be anything driver-related though I guess.

Basically, if that's the only issue, then just ignore it
