    need stable quality mobo with good bios support


    guys,
    i have Intel Core 2 4500 CPU. Socket type is LGA775. Have 4 gb DDR 2 (4 sticks 1 gb each). I need a no-frill NON-overclocking simple motherboard for it. Right now I have gigabyte P-35 DS3L but the bios support is no good. I cannot use a USB keyboard to power on the computer. I don't want overclocking feature at all - just a solid mobo with a really good and working bios and preferrably a micro-atx.

    I'd probably look to the Intel brand in that situation.

    Here's a link to a bunch of micro ATX Intel Socket 775 boards at New Egg:

    BIOS support going forward could be tricky because socket 775 is on the way out. You'd have to dig into BIOS features to see if they support USB keyboard power on.

    I had a socket 775 Intel board for 4 years that had no issues at all, but I can't recall if it had that feature.
