Have you been able to hang the AN35N under any conditions?

Yes, and I described that it will hang under the pre-Dec 5th BIOS in another mail.

I still have images of the buggy BIOS, and the fixed one on my hard drive.
They are also available at ftp://ftp.shuttle.com/BIOS/an35_n/ as
an35s00j.bin (Oct 2003)
an35s00l.bin (Dec 5th 2003)



ASUS have now supplied a BIOS update for the A7N8X-X which fixes the C1 halt crash.
dated the 2004/04/21. So I assume that they will supply a patch for all nforce2 motherboards.
