Uhhh...Since a name like Lucky Star sounds so "trustworthy", I would use the Abit. It's a great board.

Nope, works killer. On my second PC I have a BH6 rev 1.0 and celeron 300A@464 and a TNT2 Ultra. I have mine setup as ACPI. You have to do it manually though, because Win2000 will set it up as a Standard PC if you don't hit F6 during the installation. But you may not want ACPI, for me it is a must cuz I like to use Standby, and I leave this PC on 24/7. It never reboots. I have no idea about that Matrox card, you'll research that one yourself. Cheers.

You might have problems with the Matrox card...look around for issues and stuff. I heard many ppl complain about the Matrox/G400 combo

Hi,
Just an addition on the G400 card.
I have a G400MAX with Win2000 and it runs excellent.
Make sure you download the Microsoft Certified drivers and it will work like a dream.
(Getting my bloody G400MAX to run in AGP 2x is a whole different matter, but not Win2k related)
