Hello
Sorry about my late reply’s, I’m out of town 5 out of 7 days a week.

Also, the P5E is a DDR2 motherboard and you’re stating a purchase of DDR3 memory

True the P5E is DDR2
P5E Deluxe is DDR3.

Could I run Vista Ultimate 32bit version without running into driver problems with the Blackmagic card and Adobe CS3? Then I could use all the ram.
