    They are not, i am running FC2 on an Asus A7NX8 Deluxe mainboard. This
    differs from yours a bit though, this is an nforce2 mainboard with
    AthlonXP 2600+. But all installed and runs without incident.

    Sounds like it may be something to do with the chipset on your mainboard
    and some immature support for it. I have not looked into it, but i would
    suggest taking a peek into the problem using google. There may be a
    workaround or a patch that you can apply to improve support.

    Good luck.
