ACPI blacklist of Asus P2B-F

[Mark.McGregor at americom-gs.com]

I came across your post recently when I was researching the P2B-F ASUS 
motherboards. If you have experience on these boards, I have a question 
for you. If not, please forgive me for sending you this email. Here is my 
problem; I was using my PC the other day when all the sudden, my screen 
went blank, but my hard drive was still running. After removing the panels 
on my PC tower, I pulled my graphics card from the AGP slot and noticed 
that there was a few burnt capacitors. So I went and purchased another AGP 
graphic board and tried it again. Still no video. Then I returned the AGP 
graphics card for another type which fits into one of my PCI slots, still 
no resolve. I found a used ASUS motherboard on ebay for 10 dollars and I 
might purchase it. What do you think might have happened to my 
motherboard? BTW, I took my monitor to a friends house and hooked it up to 
his computer and it worked fine. Please let me know if you have any 
suggestions. Thanks.
