Get a Xeon 5080. LGA771, but all you need is one of those LGA771 to LGA775 stickers and to either trim a couple tabs off of the CPU socket or mod the CPU itself. Same 3.73Ghz, same cache, same 4 threads. But way, way cheaper.. as in less than $25: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Intel-Xeon-Processor-5080- …

My recently acquired Gigabyte GA-6VTXDR-C shows about 3.98 GB at POST (onboard AGP ATI RAGE XL) but I'm sure that'll drop further once the onboard Promise RAID starts.

You'll need a compatable mainboard with a suitable I2C header. Here's some info based on the earlier socket 7 version https://web.archive.org/web/20000612032342fw_/http://www.pentalpha.com/Product/sk7EISCA.htm Haven't looked that closely, but found one board - the Shuttle HOT-661V Apollo Pro Plus …
Re: I need help with a PCI SATA controller. SSD works, but the DVD burner doesn't
Posted on 2020-02-05, 19:19
Is there an option in the motherboard BIOS to boot from add-in or SCSI card; if there is then set it so that boot priority is pointing to the card. Don't see one, but check if there's a 'set boot device' (or similar) option in the BIOS of the SATA card. Although you've got the SSD on port 1 & the …

When you say it doesn't work, how exactly? - - can't boot from the DVD burner - not recognised by the OS - can't burn media Which BIOS is installed on the card - the RAID one or the BASE one. Have you tried them both? (available here https://www.delock.com/produkte/736_SATA---eSATA/70154/treiber. …

That's not how I remember these 3 slot boards working (based on my Chaintech 7NJS Zenith) Max single channel memory is 3GB, so 3 x 1GB Max dual channel memory is 2GB because that needs each channel to have the same total capacity, so either 2 x 512MB in slots 1 & 2 = channel A + 1 x 1GB in slot 3 = …
