Ah man missed out on a Gigabyte uATX board which is Tualatin compatible and with an ISA slot. I even set the alarm, and STILL got distracted. 😢

No AGP though, just the chipset Trident VGA...

It seems all these boards have that VIA chipset...

PS: I do have 2x Asus CUSL2-M which is uATX with 3 PCI, 1 AGP and Tualatin support. Chipset is Intel 815 I believe...

CUSL2-M doesn't support Tualatin - TUSL2-M does (proud owner here 😀)

SOB must have been that other uATX board with VIA chipset. But on that one the fingers for mounting the coolers are broken.

It also had no AGP and onboard Trident...

Are there any Intel chipset boards with T. Support AND ISA slot?

Found a few board that might be suitable.

Both have SB: VIA VT82C686B
But NB is different: VT8602 and VT82C694T

Any difference between the NBs? One is uATX the other Full ATX...

Also the VIA board I had was fine, so why are these boards "bad"? Any issues I should know about?

pci latency problems sometimes, there is a patch you can get from georgebreese.com. think that's a via686b problem.

I believe i have one or two of those gigabyte boards... GA-6VMML and GA-6VEML. PM me for more info.

I believe T in 694T stands for Tualatin.

694T just means Tualatin support with VRM8.5 spec, doesn't have anything to do with the size of the board.

As for Via, they can be a pain
No AGP4x for most cards (will be stuck on AGP2x)
PCI Latency issues, My 694T Gigabyte doesn't like the patch.
Some manufacturers didn't enable channel interleaving for the ram, like 4-channel which would mostly be on the KT133A chipsets.

440 series will be the other chipset with ISA but need a specific adapter to run the Tualatin and at 133MHz FSB you will be overclocking the AGP bus to like 89MHz instead of 66MHz.

I haven't seen a ISA bus on any 815/820/840 board.

Not that I know of, but that's not really strange:The i815 doesn't have any native support for ISA slots.

However, it's possible in theory.

I actually do have an i815 board with ISA slot!
It's from a Fujitsu Siemens and I think it has a bridge chip for the ISA slot. I can't make a picture as it's currently lend to a friend who was having problems with his Quad Core.
I think the model number of the board was D1219 or something...gonna do a quick search.

Edit:Couldn't find a pic, but heres a page with some info:

There "might" be a version with ISA and with Tualatin support. Though tracking down the exact correct board seems to be much more trouble then to simply use one of those linlin adapters, right?
