Hello Gona,please choose intel chipset mobos ,preferably 430tx and flash it with bios from 1996 pr early 1997 and repprt back.I guess that since tillamook works with some socket 7 mobos with burst pipeline,it should work with all.Try with early bios.

Yes i read about it in the whole topic .I guess i will have to try to see if it is supported in my qdi titanium iiib .What about extrecting the microcode from the working mobos and replace it in our boards.I guess that the mobos that disables the l2 cache are mobos that had followed the directivas …
