NX12000EG - Bios version 1.04
Windows XP SP2
LPC-01 Revision A

After adding the LPC-01 module to the board windows XP will not start, The machine goes through post and then when i expect to see the windows splash screen i get just a black screen. Ctrl+Alt+Del restarts machine but no reaction to any other key strokes/combos that i tried.

I also tried booting from XP install disk and Barts PE disk, both hung at 'Windows is inspecting your hardware configuration' with the LPC-01 module attached.

Removing the LPC-01 module allows for normal startup, however i would like to use this module.

Is there a known issue, undocumented step or magic trick to getting this part to work?

Any advice, suggestions or insight as to why this occurs would be helpfull.

Sounds like a bad module, unfortunately. Chris.

Turns out the module was good.
Via supplied a new (test?) BIOS and now everything works as expected, BIOS file version N07T114.bin.
Big thanks to Logan at pcicase in Sydney for his efforts in resolving this issue.
