The default setting of the onboard SATA mode in the BIOS setup is IDE mode. If your operating system is already installed in IDE mode, then switching SATA modes to RAID mode in the BIOS setup is not recommended when a SATA drive is the boot drive. Switching modes may cause an immediate blue screen and unable to boot to system because it’s no RAID driver in the SATA drive.

This model is designed for supporting 89W CPU base on AM2+ platform. As you can see there are some 95W CPU listed on CPU support table, these CPU are validated by ECS and able to work properly. For more detail CPU support list, please refer to following with your PCB version.
