Gigabyte GA-K8NNXP fails

[LawrenceE]

Changed memory setting latency from auto to a manual, left other memory settings on auto. Experts at shop and me can not get working. All re-set CMOS moves tried - no joy no display, no boot. Memory and CPU teste OK. MB going to Gigabyte UK for repair hopefully.

This is MB with a back up BIOS!

Never overclocked or altered voltages.

Well - how common is this of thing?

Not sure but i had 2 faulty Gigabyte boards in a week. One wouldn't recognise my 2600+ and the other a faulty BIOS chip. The Gigabyte standards have definatley slipped. Would advise to stay away if possible, can't go wrong with Asus, MSI etc.
