Creative makes some awesome hardware, but their drivers suck so bad there is no word in the English language to properly describe how bad they are.

And their configuration software is crashalicious.

The ASUS P5ND2-SLI board will not support the Pentium D 820 Processor it will only show as one core (chipset limitations).  You can use the 805, 830, 840 Processors.  I have already had to deal with this issue and put an 840 in mine.  If you have any questions look at www.asus.com and go to the support page and it will list all CPU'S that work with that board.  I guarantee this issue and would appreciate Karma!!!

Buy and Intel processor, buy an Intel chipset based board.  As much as I think NV makes a great AMD chipset, their Intel chipsets leave something to be desired, and Intel still has, hands down, the best Intel chipsets.

From what I looked up that board will not support the 940 series Pentium D processor.
