How in the hell did you find the power leap adapters let alone the rest of the hoard 😲

Look at the board and chances are that the onboard audio is by crystal and sometimes yamaha both of which are going to be 9x, NT 4.0, and dos only. Might be 2k support but I doubt it. The yamaha stuff is always good depending on how picky you are and it is very compatible.

Amazon 😉 I gound a guy selling the board used for $100, however he did not ship to my country, so I contacted him, and there it goes, he goes on about how he bought all of remaining powerleap stock when they closed down and how he is basically the last person on earth to have their stuff, so I bought the board, PL-ProII adapters and 512MB of RAM (had 256 laying around), and it set me back a nice buck, never the less I was and am very happy 😀 He then also told me I bought his last powerleap socket8 adapters and that he has some broken ones, however I wouldn't think about that. I can share email contact if anyone is interested 😀 I'm going to buy some more memory from him and maybe some more powerleap adapters.

As for the second Ppro board, it was an ebay auction at $39.99 for "unknown condition" and my leap of faith, it fully works 😁

Rest of the stuff, 286 is faimily original (have it in original condition with 40mb MFM hdd fully working to this day), 386, 486 were free, via processors - basically free / very cheap locally, some random AMD K2 boards, slot 1 systems, socket 423 + RIMM systems all basically for free, and then I bought all 3dfx voodoo cards except V4 and V6 of course. So I have everything I ever wanted, ending at ~2000 era, and a nice P3-1000 system as well with voodoo3.

Thank you, so basically there is no way to get it working under win XP? I'll look at the board tomorrow. Maybe check manual for some / any hadrware sound-card related jumpers.

Hey guys, look! 😀) http://www.ebay.com/itm/PowerLeap-PL-Pro-II-P … g-/322284167886

Any reason why a Celeron 766/66? wont work

edit: with the latest bios do you get any memory timing settings? I tried to flash my board but it didn't work for some reason perhaps a jumper that I cant access to inside the case.

No 733 MHz because the adapter doesn't support Coppermine-core CPUs. I know of S370 Coppermine-to-Tualatin adapters, but don't know of any Mendocino-to-Coppermine adapters.

Although, the auction does claim it works with a 600MHz Celeron, which was only released in Coppermine form. Maybe the adapter just lacks the ability to use a multiplier of 10x or higher.

Hey Guys, it's happening again! 😉)

Only three of these left as in auction text.

The onboard audio is a Crystal CS4236. I did find a driver which claims to support 9x/ME/2000 (Could be just NT4.0 instead of 2000). The problem is, the page is in Chinese.

Very nice, could you please post it or post the link?;)

I wonder how the 533 Celerons with 128K compare to PPro overdrives with 333 speed and full speed 512k cache.

I read somewhere the celerons are faster, there was an article on the internet, but I can't find it.

Sorry, when inspecting the actual inf file, it states that the driver is for CS461x.

Edit: On Dell community (http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/d … 3513/t/17520752), it states that the same package (Px3010.zip) "Provides Windows 98SE, Windows ME, and Windows 2000 support for CS4232, CS4235, CS4236B, CS4237B, CS4238B, and CS4239".

So here's the driver.

BTW the dual celerons work very nice, it's hardware porn.

Did the driver work...?

I will let you know in a week, currently on holidays 😉 Thank you for uploading! 😀
