		<description><![CDATA[Foxconn recently announced a firmware update to BIOS 782F1P06 for the A79A-S. On the positive side, my Corsair 1066MHz DDR2 memory now works (I previously had to use an unreleased beta BIOS) and support has been added for the new Phenom II processors. However, the board continues to have massive problems with USB devices, with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Foxconn technical support finally came through, and sent me Beta BIOS S02 for the troubled A79A-S. This finally allows memory to run at 1066MHz, albeit with greatly increased timings, well above the speed that the memory is capable of. In addition, selecting any of the BIOS memory options which would previously hard-lock the machine until [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Further to the situation documented here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=869249, it appears that Foxconn are still shipping motherboards with BIOS which are either intentionally or inadvertently broken under any non-Windows OS. In fact, the situation is worse &#8211; the ACPI DSDT tables of the Foxconn A79A-S 790FX/SB750 contain, according to the Intel &#8216;iasl&#8216; ACPI compiler, 177 Errors, 8 [...]]]></description>
