[Asterisk-Users] Intel Desktop MotherBoards Unsuitable for Digium Boards

[Mark Edwards]

Please clarify,

are you referring to a motherboard with an "intel chipset" or an "Intel
Motherboard"?

Am currently putting together some desktop machines to run * on that are
Asus, but with an intel chipset.

If you could clarify this, it would be a great help.
