    Sis 745 Chipset

    I was just looking for opinions/rants/BS/flame on the Sis 745 , and any MBs based on it. The only board I know of right now is the ECS K7S6. Are there any others, and how does ECS stand up as far as quality?

    Any way to unlock a slot 1 PIII?

    Nope, Not only is there no easy way...there is no way at all. The only way to OC Intel chips is by upping the FSB.

    Mounting a HDD Vertically?????

    Also, I would avoid switching the way a HD is mounted if it is already formatted and installed. If you are going to mount it vertically, then mount it, and do a complete reformat.

    P4 Front Side bus speeds?? Can someon Clarify for me?

    The Pentium 4 Front Side Bus is actually 4 seperate 100 MHz Buses multiplexed to operate as a single bus. So it has the same bandwidth as a single 400 Mhz bus would have. The actual curcuits in the bus do operate at 100 Mhz. So, there are 4 x 100 Mhz x 64 bit buses = 3.2 GB/Sec Bandwidth. This...

    the *recommended* sequence for installing new MB, new drivers

    Like said above, everyone does it their own way. My personal method is: Install PS and all drives into case. (assuming that all case fans are already in) (outside case) install cpu, HSF, and RAM into MB. Install MB, and all cards, all at once. Plug all ribbon cables from drives into...

    As titled above, I have just bought a new Quantum Atlas II SCSI drive, and a Tekram DC-390U3W controller card. I should (maybe,hopefully,IfIamlucky) have enough time this weekend to set it up. I'll be loading Win2K onto it, and setting up my 30Gb IBM IDE drive as a storage drive. Are there any...

    P4 is the fastest machine at madonion -

    Who else is having problems logging on the MadOnion? I saw one guy with the "you are not logged on" in a previous message. This is really strange. My work PC on NT can still access it through its cookie, but my home PC can't on WinME or Win2K. Any ideas? thoughts? rants? flame? :P...

    THANKS!!!!! can you mix ram?? ............RDRAM THAT IS??

    You need the terminator (CRIMM) if you only have one stick of RDRAM. If you fill the second RIMM slot with another RAM module, you will have no need for the terminator. You can use any size RDRAM RIMM you can buy, and it can be ECC, but you won't be able to use the ECC function if you keep the...

    Best Motherboard For An AMD Athlon Axia 1.33 266 FSB CPU

    The BioStar M7MIA is stable as rock, but has very limited overclocking. The FSB options are 133,138,144,150,IIRC, (on my board the 144 setting actually runs 146, any other M7MIA users out there getting the same thing?).

    Full release info on MSI nVidia "CRUSH" motherboard w/ 4.2GB/s memory

    That reminds me of when I bought a video card using the Intel I740 chipset, and it would not work on my AMD K6 233. As far as I know no-one ever got an I740 to work with an AMD chip. Have a Friday

    Question for Radeon 64mb owners (oem)

    The Radeon 64 OEM I got awhile back was a VIVO with 5.5ns RAM. It could clock to 200/400 easily. I think the Radeon 64 OEM (not VIVO) uses the 6ns stuff.
