Little update and a bit off track.
I've got into the pc chips board and it's a mess.
- Athlon XP 2600+ refuses to pass the post messages at 166 bus. Setting it back to 133 will basically tien uur Inge a 2000+ but stable.
- Have the ddr400cl3 sticks (2x256MB) running at 133MHz (!) For stability. Otherwise Windows 98se isn't happy.
- at booting windows 98 (win boot logo on screen) the beeper goes one long, three short beeps, as if there's no graphics card available. Picture status normal.
- have to keep a PCI graphics card in PCI slot to post (???) But it actually uses the agp card (Trio64 on PCI and ATI 9200 or Nvidia Vanta on AGP).
- performance seems on par with pentium 4 2GHz Williamette

Well, it sort of works, that's something for pc chips :')
I'm using it to test some thrashcan graphics cards and won't be sad if the board breaks... 😀

Stuck at 10MHz...
