To the OP, what PSU are you using with the board? These slot A mobos are very 5+ volt hungry.

Mmm...bought two of these, they are supposed to support Socket 462 and 4GB DDR400 (using double data rate at 200 MHz FSB), but in reality seem only to recognise 2GB even with the latest version FK Bios, I bought them to run Windows 7 Pro 32 bit, and an Athlon XP 3200+, for a practical machine …

I read that this was all in a 30 feet by 30 feet by 20 feet building. I would not call that a "wharehouse" by anyone's standards.
Re: issue with Pentium III 1.4

No U printed on the board, but seller stated its compatible, and intel doesn't say there are 2 versions of this board on their site. So the board better work with a Tully or both the seller and intel are gonna get an earful, neither are clear. But looking there is no U listed, and I just went onto …

Re: BSOD on Win98 system
Posted on 2017-11-01, 21:26
This has happened twice on my P3 Win98 pc (see sig for details). During a period of inactivity the BSOD comes on with a message and when I hit a key then comes a blinking gray screen with weird line artifacts - see pics for clarity. My guess is the screensaver for some reason brings it on but it's …
Re: Soundcard very very quiet (not amplifying)

Run dxdiag and if it runs ok with no errors or freezing then the card could be bad. Try installing the last version of DirectX for 98 then try again.

Hi everyone I have a soundblaster live SB0100. I have been using it with no issues recently until today and suddenly I can't hear anything, unless I turn my speakers up very loud, and then i can hear windows noises and what not. So my card is outputting but not amplifying sound. Co-incedently I had …

Re: "Old" Capacitors

All I meant by "new old stock" is, not brand new from Mouser or Digi-Key. For example, a big bag of Sanyo WX capacitors 200 count for $20: https://www.ebay.com/itm/CAPACITOR-RARIAL-1500UF-6-3V-SANYO-6-3MV1500WX-10X20mm-LOT-OF-200-PCS/162717695765?hash=item25e2baff15:g:CvAAAOSwyP5Z57Xt New package, …
Re: So.. Windows Me and motherboard swap.. Terrible idea?

Backup, Backup, Backup. Clean install all the way. Migrating was created to screw with you and your files. Any DOS game files will be iffy after a swap from 98 to Me. I vote to wipe drive then install.
Re: Socket 370 system won't POST when cold

I upgraded my Windows 98SE system from the K6-2/300 to a Socket 370 system, and it's not POSTing when the system is turned off for a specific amount of time. Could it be solder joint issues, or something else? I checked every capacitor, and they're all in good fighting trim. It's also cold where …

Jealous of your tool, mate. Did you get it off Amazon? It looks to me every time someone's buying a soldering iron - it is this exact model. Might be an average, but the crap available locally around me must be coming off the same bush-league Chinese plant for half a buck a piece. I was a part of a …
