I came across this on the 'egg and was wondering if anybody else has seen this before? MSI's site shows OCUR support. Could this be the thing I've been waiting for (I refuse to buy a Dell/HP/etc HTPC when I can build my own)?

I already searched TGB, but nothing came up. Anybody know anything about this?

This site says "Support ATI OCUR capable for Microsoft OEM approved Integrators".  So, it most likely wouldnt happen.

However, if someone got ahold of a vendor's OCUR BIOS tables, it could be possible to add them to the board....  I had to do this with my Dell XPS 420, when I received it, it didnt have the OCUR tables and Dell walked me through a utility to add them (this is vendor specific).
