General Comments

Report by Ivan
ASRock B450M Pro 4 motherboard with an AMD Ryzen 3 3200G 2nd generation processor with Radeon graphics. Added to that is a Crucial 250GB SSD drive, 8 GB Memory with a 250GB WD Green SATA SSD M.2.
Install was a bit of a problem until I setup the partitions on the Crucial SSD with DFSee on my test computer. With those setup the install DVD saw them and everything went ahead as it should.
The fact that the motherboard doesn't have any real USB 2 ports (those it does have are a subset of the USB 3 CPU/chipset) did make things a little 'sensitive' to start with - the trackball kept on locking up if I tried to click on something while waiting for something else to happen.
There are a few other 'problems' which I think I can work around with some thought, things like getting NoScript and AdBlock plus to install in Firefox and needing to change the TZ in config.sys and add OSLEXAM.DLL to OS2\DLL to get the spell check in EPM to work - all things I have done in the past but forgotten about since all the installs with Ryzen processors prior to this have been from already setup images.
