aah to explain ;)

I got used to just turning off the monitor with my last motherboard. the damned thing was hard to get going..

ever have a car or bike where you'd turn the ignition over and over and over to get it started? that was this motherboard. once took me 30 minutes of : Power on. fans start Power off. Power on fans start power off. and so on until Power On fans. IDE Drives turn over. DVD Cycles Beep

changed cables.. PSU... checked the Ram and the CPU... was that darned MB. so once I had it running I did'nt turn the damned thing off unless I REALLY had to..
