If sending you an epia-m would mean you'd begin looking at it I'll
get you one. Let me know.

I'm not sure of the clock source, VIA hasn't provided a schematic for the
board. The datasheet indicates 2 clock sources, one is for the LPC
interface and the other is for the main clock. LPC is the 33 mhz pci clock.
The other clock is 48 mhz. I had a scope on the chip and as near as I can
tell the 48 mhz clock was in fact 48 mhz. I didn't look at the 33 mhz clock
at all.
