XP support is supposed to be in an A7V (regular or first edition) since bios 1009, although not officially (caus A7V only has 100 FSB).

A7V has 200 mhz FSB

actually, guys, some lucky A7V owners such as myself have revision 1.05 of the A7V which can run at 133 FSB (266 DDR).... it appears to be some kind of hybrid A7V/A7V133.... it has a Kt133A Northbridge and a 686A (KT133) Southbridge

you are talking about BIOS version... not board revision

i know, i can find where the board revision is

Found it, it is Revision 1007

no it isn't.... that, again, is probably your BIOS version.... the board revision # can be found printed on the motherboard between two of the PCI slots... it should read rev. 1.0x (x=1 through 5)

If this is the case then is should "officially" support the morgan cored Durons, but it dont. As i;ve emaile ASUS a few times regarding this as the budget revision of the board A7V-E supports the morgans but the normal A7V dont.
