Asus M3N78 Pro: Geforce 8300 & HybridPower Explored

I was just curious if any of the BIOS or driver updates ever got Hybrid Power working on this motherboard? I have been considering this exact model of motherboard, but I don't want it if Hybrid Power won't work.

Me too? Anyone know if these problems have been ironed out?

I don't have Vista installed at the moment or I'd tell you, but I am definitely having a problem with this board not controlling the fans after buying it a couple of days ago. SpeedFan doesn't do anything, and ASUS Q-Fan's functionality isn't working either.

Just finished installing Vista. The fan is not turning off on my GTX 260, even though Power Save mode is selected! Latest BIOS and drivers. Going to give it a reboot and see what happens. It's worth noting I don't have the M3N78 Pro, but the M3N78-VM. Similar enough chipsets, I would think.

edit: everything updated, fan is still spinning on the GTX 260. Also, Q-Fan was doing nothing since a PWM fan is required. I don't have one.
