My Athlon box has a MSI A6195KMS bios. The motherboard has the IronGate and the Viper chipsets, and test10-pre5 works great on it.
One possible caveats :
- USB doesn't work too well, because of a bug in the Viper USB controller. You may want to try to disable "PnP aware OS" in the bios. You may also try to download the latest rev of the A6195KMS bios
available here :
http://www.amdzone.com/files/bios/msi/a6195kms173.zip
- Even when USB finally works, the ohci USB driver sends this kind of message all the time :
usb-ohci.c: bogus NDP=64 for OHCI usb-00:07.4
usb-ohci.c: rereads as NDP=4
but it shouldn't kill your machine. In any doubt, just disable USB.
Otherwise, let me know if you want me to send you my .config and my BIOS settings, it you think they can help you.
Take care !
