Nope, it broke the first time I had to tight en the daugterboard. I have contacted ASE they claim not to have any bad boards but are more than willing to sale me a new motherboard for 335.00. Surprise.
You wouldn't by any chance be aware of any other Laptop that uses that particular motherboard would you?

Thanks for your help.
