Known Issues and Troubleshooting

Although the Aopen MX3W-E2L is a reliable motherboard, there are a few known issues that may affect users. These include:

• Problems with certain types of RAM – the MX3W-E2L bios may not be compatible with all types and brands of RAM
• Issues relating to IDE hard drive detection – users may experience problems when using drives larger than 60GB because the enhanced ATA facilities provided by the BIOS are limited
