EPoX website

Hey,
So I bought an A7V333 for my new 3dfx rig, but after looking through the manual I could have issues as I want to put in 1 AGP card and 3 PCI cards. When I look at the manual it shows that IRQs are going to have to be shared. I kinda remember this when I had to deal with it back in the late 90's, but all I remember is problems with IRQ sharing.
So, I'm looking at alternatives and EPoX seems to make really good motherboards. However, when I try their Global site, I have to keep refreshing the page, to actually get a page to finally show up.
On the US webpage, I can navigate fairly well, until I get to the point where I need to download something and then the referencing page crashes.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Hi Exxe,
Ok, I was getting the sense of that. I'm curious to find out why they're out of business as they seemed to make good boards.
Is there anywhere where I can download drivers/manuals/bioses for these boards?

Ok, thanks for the help.
My motherboard is the EPoX 8k5A3+
I am looking for the last bios made that was made in 2003. I can't find it anywhere.

I think all you have to do is select "BIOS Updates" as your File Type and your model "EP-8K5A3+" on this page:

Thanks for the suggestion.
The problem is, is that the FTP site that hosts the files no longer exists. Even some of the regional EPoX websites are non-existant.
However, I did find the bios I was looking for by figuring out what EPoX named the file and then Googling that name.
