IIncidentally that's a PCMCIA slot right on the motherboard, it's intended for Apple's same-era wi-fi cards (I have one in the G4 Cube) but AFAIK it can be used for anything. 5.jpg Nice Sawtooth! Surprised with the dual CPUs the original owner didn't put a beefier graphics card into it. Re: it's …

I also sell all my retro tech items on eBay with an "as is no returns" clause, as once they're gone from my hands I cannot guarantee its lifespan. Having said that, I spend considerable amount of time cleaning and checking my items, packing them well. I'm yet to receive purchased items in similar …

PSU not up to scratch?

Surely you just need the right driver instead of flashing a new BIOS onto the cards - what is that going to achieve? Also, the Mac editions of the card won't POST if placed into a PC, due to a significantly different firmware setup.

I'm reasonably happy using a Sony VAIO P series laptop with a single core 1.6Ghz Atom CPU and stripped back version of Windows 7. The Opera browser runs acceptably on it, but I find you need to give it a moment to load the website and then it's fine to use.

I spent several evenings trying to get it stable without even thinking such an innocent VIA USB card could be the culprit. Of course I believed it was due to overclocking, RAM (well it was in part - sometimes not …

Thanks all for your advice! I have never owned a dual x86 machine before, hence the desire to try getting it all functional with Windows 2000 so that both CPUs can be utilised. However, it hasn't been easy getting there. The BP6 is one of the pickier boards with RAM and it was completely unstable …

No I'm not getting that all - it's all coming up as 0MB. Will try each card separately on the weekend.

I use an AppleVision 17" CRT, a 12" Apple RGB monitor for 15Khz purposes (Amiga and IIGS), and a Dell 30" for my retro needs
