Another solution is to use an IDE to USB adapter to copy the CDROM's WIN98 directory to your C: drive and then install from there by booting off a floppy. No CD drive required for that. This. I ran into odd problems with 9x and this tends to fix the problem, its a band aid fix. But who cares once …

No creative labs soundblaster card from at least the Soundblaster 16 on needs -5v, your AWE 32 will be fine without. In Fact, no ATX motherboard needs -5V to work. The early ATX specifications include -5V only for backwards compatibility with really old ISA hardware. The only hardware I have …

Perhaps you could be a little less condescending and insulting? Most people on here know how to install a fan. Because there's absolutely no reason that you have to react the way you do just because some people disagree with you on how hot LPX systems can get and whether or not people want to …

That's only a minor problem assuming they weren't damaged from the coolers being roughly removed. Are any of them interesting? Also other intersting parts in the box. Unfortunately he removed all coolers from the graphics cards, therefore useless :dead: Hmmm I dont think so. They are looking intact …

The Micro-Star MS5150. It looks to have two chace chips and sd-ram. Micro-Star MS5150 for 17.25 same board but with …

If they have onboard cache it will likely be 2 or 4 square chips near the cpu socket. The way I found that boards was by looking up motherboards for OEM systems and OME part numbers and so on. LPX was never a standard platform, so you do have to get created when looking for them. most are sk5 but …

That's what's better fans, heatsinks and tim is for. For the longest time I had a old packard bell SK5 LPX system with a overclocked MMX Pentium (non overdrive) running at too high of volts with a voodoo2 among other things. A better heatsink on the cpu and a a 80mm case fan and it was more then …

The top is anodized so it should corrode slower provided the anodized layer is still intact. But I would still want to put something in it to prevent corrosion. For stressing the gpu you can use furmark or a old version of ATI tool with has an app like furmark. Anther idea is it use something like …
