In case anyone wondered (or worried) about the BH6 motherboard
"problem" I was having - perhaps in regards to your own upgrade
plans...
I ultimately discovered that the problem I was having was
quite simple... The silk screening on the mobo regarding
the pins for plugging in the hdd light, power switch,
keyboard lock, etc, do not quite match what is in the
manual. On top of that, it turns out that the plug for
my hdd light, though only using 2 pins, is a plug
meant for 4 pins. The way it works out with the BH6 is
that the hdd light plug (from my AOpen ATX case) covers the
keyboard lock pins, thus, upon reboot the keyboard would lock
up with no means to unlock it save clearing the CMOS and
starting over. Simply unplugging the hdd light from the pins
eliminated the problem.
The system works perfectly now. Fast and sweet.
