As the cryptic title suggests, I had a fault on a motherboard (which was still under warrenty) so I RMAed it to SCAN. After a long delay I recieved an identical replacement - even down to being faulty, but this time it would not even stay up for more then a few minutes in MemTest. So I RMAed it again and after another delay recieved yet another identical board. This time the fault it that I can not boot it if there is a disk attached to a specific SATA port.
Having spent >25% the cost of the board on return postage and wasted many days rebuilding my PC and then trying to diagnose the faults, I'm wondering if it is worth RMAing the board yet again. Or would I be better off cutting my losses and buying a new board? (My hesitation is that the existing board has DDR memory and all equivalent new board take DDR II - so it would be quite a bit more expensive as I would need new memory.)
Any thoughts?
