Silicon Graphics VCAM board. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1x-Silicon-Graphics-030-0502-205-Rev-C-PCA-Remote-VCAM-Assembly-/181453509816?&_trksid=p2056016.l4276 It's a bridge board. It's not even a required bridge board. It fits in Onyx and Challenge machines and enables the rarely used VME bus. Yet he …

I've used firewire networking back when gigabit networking was still too expensive. It does work well however a six person LAN party pushed a limit somewhere. It might of just been the crappy VIA chipset cards we were using. Otherwise I still use firewire for backing my machine up over using USB and …

Yep. It was a key pin. :blah: Anyways, with that dealt with I had to trim the soldered leads underneath and place a piece of tape on a neighboring SLT chip so the interposer did not short out. Dropped it all into place with the 3x multiplier set and instead of getting no POST readout (CPU rejected …

As a bit of a content BuMP I managed to secure an Interposer (PGA-DX4/2) for not too much money and discovered I had a 133ADW hidden away in another box which should now work, however I've unintentionally screwed up and discovered that the interposer has an extra pin at position D4. I cannot …

I started about ten years ago when I realized the local landfill was a goldmine for computers and stuff. Snuck in before dusk and left with a backpack of crummy 386's or 486 parts. There was no recycling programs yet and metals were cheap so in about four years I had just about every ISA, PCI or …

HOLY COW @ CelGen's space. Do you host stuff with those old servers or are they just for fun/hobby? Eh, I was hosting various stuff like a website, mail, terminal services and games before I moved. Now that I'm back on Telus' ADSL service I'm essentially blocked from hosting anything at home. Also, …

According to that post on the Trinity Works Q/A the adapter is running in 3X mode. Isn't 4X mode what you wanted? Nope. It's a known fact that in my case at least 200mhz is not possible. 150mhz is my ceiling.

Well, again unfortunately I'm running off what I've read. The only time I've SEEN an interposer in a model 95 was with Irongate and he was using an ADZ (but it was on the Type 3 complex so it at least made that variant of the 5x86 work). Everyone else has said along the lines of "yeah, I used this …

In the world of Silicon Graphics it's not out of the ordinary to see some surplus outlet trying to price by brand (and by piece). http://cgi.ebay.com/390456648054 You gotta love how this one has been stripped of anything that wasn't screwed down. http://cgi.ebay.com/360805737667 Huh, the Turbo …

Not running because it doesn't like the CPUID? There's a new one for me. Well I have half of that accomplished with the jumper but I wouldn't have a clue where to source the PLL. I think this in the end might turn into a job for sourcing an Interposer which is rather annoying. I'll have to give your …

Okay, so the Turbochip seems to be like all the other AM5x86-P75 drop-in solutions from people like Powerleap or Evergreen with the exception that it has no jumpers. If you're crafty like I was you can still add jumpers. I don't need to tell the regulator to do anything (as it seemed to work in the …

Keeps the place warm in the winter at least. Edited: Ah heck, I'll upload a pic of the racks since I don't seem to have a recent one.

Yeah, the cards mount upside down. Only reason I keep it around other than because I have the recovery discs and all the original bundled software is because it was designed by Frog Design who also designed cases for NeXT, Sun and Apple. I ran one of their A950-TWR machines with a Powerleap + K6, …

Shouldn't really say "another" as it's my first post but it seems the topic pops up every so often here. Yes I've lurked a bit. Annnnyways, I'm generally not too fond of building rigs where I'm dealing outside the usual 25/33mhz FSB range but this time I'm forced. I'm currently working on upgrading …
