that chipset was new in 2002, and already bordering on obsolete by 2005 
(Intel ended all support for the 845 in December 2005).   It supported 
Pentium-4 "Northwood" CPUs, which were 32bit only, via socket 478 and 
first generation DDR SDRAM PC133.

its quite likely that stuff that old is no longer being tested for 
compatibility with new builds.
