No, that's pretty much exactly the right one for me thanks - I'll take two please! 👍

For the -5V thing, I have a P2L97-DS that did the same thing. I got it to shush by using one of those ISA slot adapters that's intended when using an ATX PSU on an AT board. And.. then I found the bios setting that let me disable the error. 🤭 Anyway, either might work for you.

Very nice system. The late 90s and early 2000 look in my opinion. Maybe try finding a little less yellow 5,25 drive bay to fully match the outside appearance or try retro bright.

But darn this thing turned out sweet!

Asus Tower with P2B Motherboard
P3 1.1 GHz Coppermine in an MSI Socket 370 to SLot 1 converter
512 MB RAM
Compact Flash Reader
IDE Drive Bay
AGP GeForce Ti4200
Voodoo 2
Soundblaster Live Platinum
Custom Fan Setup
500 W PSU

very nice indeed, it will have a great range of software it can run too

i guess you can have CFs for different OSes and setups too

Great minds think alike - my current favorite is very much in line with yours!

Started out as a complete DTK machine witch I've more or less ignored for years. The original board is a DTK PRM-0080i, and it came with a TNT2 M64 and a 650MHz slot 1 pentium 3 CPU, but I've replaced the mainboard with an Abit BH6 witch is more flexible. Before the BH6 I had a Shuttle socket 370 mobo + a VIA C3 Nemiah 1200, but it turned out the Shuttle board did not fully support the Nemiah* so I put that setup on hold until I can find a truly compatible board with an ISA slot.

Right now the DTK case holds the following:

Coppermine Pentium III 1100MHz FSB100 (SL5QW) + slotket
Unlocked Pentium II 333MHz on hand in case I want to run more sensitive DOS games (this sample can go from 2x66 to 5x100 on the BH6)
Abit BH6 mainboard
256MB of PC133 SDRAM running at 100MHz CL2
Asus Geforce 3 Ti200 AGP-V8200T2
Skywell Magic 3D II Voodoo 2 12MB
Creative Labs CT2950 SB-16
Roland SoundCanvas SC-55mkII
40GB Western Digital HDD
Sony DVD-ROM drive
350W FSP 80+ PSU
DTK Desktop ATX case

19" Delta 992 CRT (DTK branded)
IBM Model M
Razer Dethstalker Essential (for windows games)
Agiler BMT400 PS2 (for DOS games)

*turns out the setup took a serious performance hit on the Shuttle mainboard (VIA 693A chipset) when running the Nemiah chip. I was getting 270MB/sec memory read speeds with the nemiah, while it got 550mb/sec with an 800MHz Samuel C3 and 700MB with a 933MHz coppermine Pentium 3 so something is amiss - most likely the Shuttle board does not fully support the Nemiah core.

The only issue is that the upgraded PSU does not have a -5 V power out for the ISA slots.

If you have a spare ISA slot, you can get a Voltage Blaster to solve that.

Looks similar to so many of my mates who had similar full tower builds just to fit all the drives removable HDD's that were all important during those early 2000's LAN days. Less fun moving round on LAN days though.
I also disabled the -5v warning in BIOS, not sure if that was a DS only option though?

I got that exact same case in 1999 for my Abit BP6. Enlight 7337 or similar to that. Took it to Best Buy for recycling in 2015 (yeah wouldn't do that now).

Found the bios setting.

Stress testing this thing over the weekend to get her ready for game duty.
