I think I have seen a website out there where someone has made a patched bios for the TUSL2-C. I get the same message on my system but as it seems to function just fine I havent ever worried about it. Probably this one ? Yeah.. I'm a bit scared to try an unofficial BIOS like this. :-) That's the …

Hey all, I recently completed a build based around an Asus TUSL2-C and 1.4GHz Tualatin and everything seems to be running swimmingly, however, upon boot I receive the message (see attached): BIOS update data incorrect. CPUID=000006B4 bios_message.png Does anyone know how to fix this? It looks like …

Just curious since no one asked yet, what are you going to be using the system for? What games do you intend to play on it?

Makes sense to get a Socket 478 system then, since they still work on Windows 98 pretty well. Thanks for the advice. I went through this process last year and found that a lot of the P4 socket 478 boards I looked at on eBay had bulging or leaky caps and the ones that were in good shape weren't less …

Hey all, I recently built a 98SE machine based around an Asus TUSL2-C and intend to use it for games of the 1991-2001 era in both Windows and DOS. It's been working great for Windows games with an Audigy 2 ZS. I recently picked up an ESS Solo-1 PCI card for the DOS side of things but I'm finding it …

Hey all, I am also looking for a native PS2 keyboard for my 98 build. I found a vendor that has the Fujitsu FKB4726-651 available and I'm considering it since it looks like they can be had for <$75 USD. In the specs sheet for the keyboard (linked), Fujitsu says that the interlock type is "F-key …

I found the SB0790 PCI sound blaster X-FI as an option, but it doesn't have full EAX support- just 4.0 - from what I saw on the amazon listing for it. It looks like the PCI SB0790 is the X-Fi Xtreme Audio card that doesn't have the EMU20K1 chip. I recently picked up a PCI X-Fi XtremeMusic (SB0460) …

Update: I tested the RAM in another board and it's fine. I then removed the C151 chip per the other thread and it still doesn't post and beeps. I guess the board is dead. :-( It's unfortunate because this is the second problematic board in a row that I've dealt with (in one month) for this build. I …

Have you got a multimeter? If so, check the resistance between each pair of pins (from one side to the other) on that chip. They might not actually be open circuit, but they should all be some distance away from zero. If any measure near zero (say, under 10 ohms) then there's probably a problem …

Thanks, guys. Before I start forcibly ripping chips off the board, I am still looking for other suggestions. Not to discount the C151 as the cause of the problem, but I would prefer to save that as a drastic last option.

This kind of take has always puzzled me. Offer and demand..nobody gets to decide what an acceptable price for a NOS CRT screen is except the buyers. You can of course decide you're not willing to pay that much, though. And if the majority agrees with you the seller will maybe lower the price or …
