Good Board, Bad Cable,
This review is from: Biostar MCP6P-M2 Socket AM2 mATX Motherboard w/Video, Sound & LAN (Personal Computers)
If you experience intermittent crashes, slow start-up or shut-down with this board, replace the SATA cable that came with it. I built two budget systems with this board (August of 2008). The first build went fine. The second build had intermittent boot problems right away. I swapped the SATA cable with one from my computer and that resolved that problem. Everything looked good, the owners were happy and I soon forgot about the whole incident. Weeks later, my computer crashed during a boot. This continued intermittently for weeks and I scratched my head a lot looking for the problem. Then I remembered the SATA cable from Biostar that I had swapped earlier. I replaced it and all the problems went away. Several weeks later the first build, which had been good from the start, crashed several times. Again, I replaced the SATA cable from Biostar and all is well. In summary, the MCP6P-M2 is a good board. The SATA cable is junk. Biostar Tech Support? .....aah, just throw it away.
