Hey everyone, it's been quiet awhile since I've been around. Mods, please move this if it's in the wrong place. Not sure where to place a generic question like this with all the new subdivisions. I recently refurbed my Toshiba 480CDT and am thinking of using it for some older less intensive games. …

Re: P2B With AGP Issues

So far... Asus geforce4 4600 Dell OEM geforce2 gts Asus geforce 4 mx4000 I've got a dell tnt2 in it right now. Had a dell rage 128 pro before that. Both work just fine, but both are the 64bit versions of the cards so I'm trying to find something with putting in the machine. I don't mind picking up …

P2B With AGP Issues

Posted on 2018-05-10, 23:48

I have a P2B-S that seems to have issues with 1.5v keyed AGP cards. I've tried several cards with 3.3v only, and dual 3.3v and 1.5v keys and cards with the dual keying will cause error beeps on boot. The cards with only 3.3v keys boot just fine. I've read that this family of boards should run the …

I'm not currently equipped to do any component level replacements, and my hands aren't what they used to be. At this point, I'm just going to swap out the board/video for my P2B-S, p3/550 and a GF2 GTS and run that for awhile. This was more of an overpowered build to see what I can do with certain …

I must sadly report that this board is now effectively dead. Found a case and built it up and it kept shutting down after 10 minutes or so. Thinking it was thermal, I redid the goop on the CPU, with a PSU swap next on the list. Turned it on after the repasting...and we have magic smoke and cap …

After a long while, it's time to build this sucker up. Ended up parting it out and sticking the parts in a box and dumped the case for space needs. Finally ordered another one and it's time to build this back up and see what it's got. Going to go with a Live! card vs the Phillips one, so there's …

Re: Possible XP Build?

Yep, XP 32-bit, which is why I wanted to drop down to 4GB of ram. I intend to rip the thing apart and give it a good cleaning, redo the thermal paste, etc, before I try and set it up again. It's been running with nothing but occasional cleaning of the dust filters in the case since I first put it …

Possible XP Build?

Posted on 2018-04-17, 01:39

So, my server is currently my old desktop, however it's starting to take a shit during long Handbrake runs, just crashing. I had been planning on retiring it once the new Ryzen parts came out this week and just building a modern desktop with high-capacity hard drives to serve dual purpose as daily- …
