    Please help me identify this monitor

    Yes, that looks a LOT like it! :thumbsup: Great find, thank you! Proview's website does list a PL913S2, I'm assuming that's the same as the PL913S, now I just need to find one for parts to fix mine (I think I need an inverter board or something).

    Please help me identify this monitor

    Maybe you missed this part of the OP: "Proview's website is pretty worthless, and their phone number is disconnected!" :)

    Please help me identify this monitor

    Ok so I have this Proview 19" monitor that the label on the back got ripped off of, so I have no clue what the proper model # for it is supposed to be. I ran Everest, Sandra, PC Wizard and Belarc Advisor and this is the best they all came up with: --- Everest Monitor Properties Monitor Name...

    Best Mobo/CPU combo under $100 shipped?

    Well here's what I'm doing. One of these Celeron 430's from ClubIT, and one of these MSI mobos from newegg. Grand total, $99.82. I was tempted to pickup this bundle from tiger, but by the time you add on a HSF and S/H, it pushes the total over $100. I think this is the best bang for the...

    Best Mobo/CPU combo under $100 shipped?

    Thanks for the additional suggestions, yes the future upgrade path is something I'm thinking about in this project (hence shying away from, say, a 754 setup for example) even though I hopefully won't have to upgrade this box anytime soon it'll be nice to know the potential is there, so, SATA...

    Best Mobo/CPU combo under $100 shipped?

    754, wow that's really scraping the bottom of the barrel ;) I figure if I'm going to spend $60+ I might as well make it worthwhile and get something that at least has a little bit of a future ahead of it, that's why I was thinking the Celeron 420/430 with a cheap mobo. :) 939 is still a...

    Best Mobo/CPU combo under $100 shipped?

    I didn't even notice mwave had refurb boards, unfortunately it looks like they're just bare boards which would mean no backplate or any of that (the rest of it I could care less about, but the backplate is a must). And the newegg deal looks good, I do have some DDR1 and DDR2 sticks around, so I...

    Best Mobo/CPU combo under $100 shipped?

    I've hit Tiger, mwave, the egg, chiefvalue, and zzf (and others) trying to put together a good combo, and the best I've been able to come up with is ordering from multiple sites. I'm seriously leaning toward a Celeron 420/430 (retail, assuming the retail fan is QUIET, anyone know?) and some...

    Anyone have access to a PLCC-32 programmer?

    Thought I could hotflash these chips I got from mouser, turns out I can't (stupid flash program sucks). They are SST39VF010's, file to be flashed is in hex format, if someone can help me out please let me know, thanks.

    MSI K8N Neo4 nForce4 Ultra Socket 939

    It's intercepted by my lazy spirit :)

    MSI K8N Neo4 nForce4 Ultra Socket 939

    You know I was looking at that, but unfortunately that thing is about 4.5" high, and I think (not 100% sure but just a guess) in my case it would run right into where my hard drives mount! Not to mention it costs 3x what the Zalman does :)

    MSI K8N Neo4 nForce4 Ultra Socket 939

    How about a solution that doesn't involve clipping anything off? :)

    MSI K8N Neo4 nForce4 Ultra Socket 939

    So has anyone figured out a quieter way for the NB? The Zalman ZM-NB47J isn't going to work if you have a PCI express video card. Stupid design, they should have moved the NB down about 10mm, then it wouldn't be an issue, or left it in the middle of the mobo where it used to be. There must be...
