Yes, reformatting will make that go away.

Looks like the ASUS cd you used had some older chipset drivers that caused compatibility issues

Noticing that it's a VIA thing...you should try downloading the latest VIA 4-in-1 drivers http://www.viaarena.com/downloads/dr..._4in1_443v.zip

That is a direct link to their older 4-in-1's (as the Hyperion 4-in-1 are tailored for later chipsets)

Which update? The 4-in-1's I linked?

Updating chipset (or platform drivers, as VIA calls it) is a good thing, makes everything talk better (talk meaning interact).

You may not notice a performance increase visibly, but usually updated platform drivers give extra stability and occasionally a slight performance boost.
