A8R32-MVP Deluxe chipset drivers?

[trodas]

Guys, I was about to install a Asus A8R32-MVP Dlx mobo and for many reasons (as bigger security) the wanted OS is Windows 2000. However I was looking at the CD included as hard as I can, then I was looking on the webpage of Asus for this mobo:
http://support.asus.com/download/download.aspx?SLanguage=en-us&model=A8R32-MVP%20Deluxe
But I still can't find any chipset related drivers. The mobo is using ATI's™ CrossFire™ Xpress 3200 ( http://www.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3&l2=15&l3=268&model=1042&modelmenu=1 ) and I'm affraid that I was missing something. After all, there are some chipset drivers for my Grouper (ATI RX480 NB and SB450 chipsets), so...

Anyone know, what to do? :confused: Should I just believe that no drivers are need for Win2k, or what? :confused:

This mobo does not have integrated graphic... :p

The cursed sound drivers require XP or at least SP4, witch suxx. Mine X-Fi can operate well using SP2 Win2k w/o flaws, so I see no reason for the special patch, need to install first before audio install is made, to require SP4...

But when I installed the SP4, audio and even the reader start completely working and working well... And there is still the little ACPI driver for chipset for Win2k (not need and all working when I tried XP SP1.0a as well) ...

So, this mobo is forcing everyone to unnecessary high and useless bloated and bugged SP4. Clearly buyers beware thing to mention.

PS. I also updated bios prior to XP and later SP4 Win2k install, so... It might contribute to something as well.

Important information is, that the LAN1 NIC is on top of the mobo, while LAN2 is the bottom NIC connector on the A8R32-MVP DLX mainboard. In bios, after the bios update to 0602 bios (shipping was 0404 for me) the LAN testing page showing the TOP NIC port as LAN2, while the bottom one are LAN1 - effectively reversed to what the real-life situation is.
Futhermore I wanted to know, witch one is the PCIe one, and witch one is on PCI bus. PCI bus is, of course, slower and with latency delays. Not such thing exist in PCIe, so I wanted use that LAN port (both are Gigabite ones), witch is sitting on the PCIe bus.
After some experiements (this is NOT menion in the mobo guide!) I find out that it is the LAN1, that is using PCIe connection and chip type is Marvell 88E8053 as mentioned in bios (but there are not mentioned that this chip is on the PCIe bus, witch is a flaw) ;)

Hooray for that!
