Inserted this card into 5 pc's. It gave the same error for all pc's, including the ones that were new and working fine. My rating..... FF

Doesn't work.......2007-05-01

It doesn't work. Tested with a working computer and it tells me the CPU is fried. Don't waste your money

Soyo.......2007-04-12

Great product for finding that hardware malfunction. Would have given a 5 if the diagnostics were a little easier to read and understand.

This card is not for the faint of heart, it should only be used by someone who is familiar with building computers and repairing hardware. That is to say, if you don't know what a level 5 clean room is then you probably don't want to open your computer because you probably don't have the necessary skills to know how to keep your good components from getting fried.

That being said, this card is great. And if you like to see post codes, you can mount it permanently. I used it on my new system that I built and got code FF. Unfortunately, this is the most common error and it means a BIOS, motherboard, CPU or power supply issue. Since 2/5 of the possible problems were CPU related, I sent back my brand new CPU and that turned out to be the problem...

Do yourself a favor, if you know what you are doing, and get this card now so you have it when something goes wrong... Now if only it came with a bundled ATX power supply tester.
