New Did you install the motherboard driver?
Especially for a system that's newer than XP, you will probably need it. Classic symptom is Windows only vaguely identifying the motherboard hardware; install the motherboard driver and all this specifcally identified stuff "miraculously" appears. Example: I have a box that can't see the AGP card or most PCI cards in Windows 2000 if I don't install the motherboard driver.

New Sometimes you need the updated driver
the stock one on the CD-ROM disk is usually old and buggy. Which may be the case here. Visit the motherboard maker's web site and download the Driver and BIOS updates and apply them and see if the problem goes away.
