I received a PM about using the VIO mod to raise the RAM voltage. Thing is the CuBx has the RAM VIO mod implemented by the manufacturer, by using a jumper, you can adjust from the board's default of 3.45V to 3.65V this way. But this doesn't help with detecting 1Gb RAM at FSB 133 as this is a chipset …

Thanks for the explanation. I actually have a working PII 300 and quite a few TNT2 cards so it's good to know 😀

Don't ignore the fact that any fan becomes shitty/noisy after eating dust for 3-4-5 years then probably sitting somewhere for the lube to dry out pretty well 😁

I don't think there's a lockout on this particular board as it works just fine with all 4 sticks at 124Mhz. Probably the NB isn't getting enough current/voltage to run all 4 sticks at 133Mhz, but unfortunately there's no option in the bios to increase the NB voltage, as in later motherboards. Maybe …

What's wrong with oil? I've been using engine oil in my computer fans for years without any problems. Lube is lube, no? Oil is being used in applications where it can stay onto the parts that needs to be lubed. For example in car engines there's a pump at the bottom pushing the oil back up. It then …

For which game/video card did you needed them?

First thing you can try is always to properly clean and grease the fan. Don't use oil under any circumstance, just silicone lube designed for fast moving small bearings (like those for fishing reels and so on). Keep in mind that you'll have to carefully remove the label at the back of the fan, then …

3.3V only cards will have only one notch on their slot (at 1/3 length), located towards the metal bracket . Cards with the universal edge have both notches as you already pointed out. And later AGP cards (made after Nvidia FX and Ati 9800) have only a notch located at 2/3 length of their slot, to …

It's stable enough to run even Win 7 with 768Mb at FSB133, let alone Xp with 512Mb. Thing is I'm trying to use it as a dual boot with 98SE and Win7 and 1Gb would certainly be useful to have with W7. For Win98SE I will just limit the available memory to 512Mb using the MaxPhysPage value in [386enh] …

For the last 2 hours it's been happily cruising in memtest at FSB 100 with all 1024Mb RAM detected, so obviously a Celeron Tualatin 1.5Ghz would be a safe bet for this board, but I'd very much like to make use of that 512kb Cache of the 1.4Ghz PIII-S :happy: I'm currently testing with the 124Mhz …

Hello guys (and girls if if's the case, of course :lol: ), I just started the project of building a computer for old games, which is intended to be a dual boot Win 98SE/ Win7 machine. My goal is to use a modded 1.4Ghz Tualatin on a Bx board and after much fiddling with pliers, ridiculously thin wire …
