The Super-I/O chip detection is very reliable and I would ve very surprised if you do not have a Winbond W83627EHF. As a matter of fact, this hi-res picture of your motherboard: http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Abit/AT8/images/board_fullsize.jpg clearly shows a W83627EHF in the top-left-hand corner. But indeed there's also a uGuru chip on the board. Bad luck. -- Jean Delvare
