Abit SlotKET!!! and Dual-Mode?

[garak]

I just got my Intel OR840 motherboard, and to my dismay, it won't even power up. I'm using a single Pentium III 800EB (FCPGA) with an Abit SlotKET!!!. Then, after a day or so of analysis, I searched around and found a post claiming that the Abit slotket has been known to cause such problems and will not work in a dual setup.

Can anyone shed some more light on this or verify its accuracy?

Thanks,
Mike Strobel

Do you have the empty cpu slot terminated?

No, I don't.. but I'm leaving in ~5 minutes to go hunt one down.

[hours later...]

Well, I didn't find one, so I ordered one off e-Bay and I'm having it shipped overnight . I still need to make sure my Slotket will work, though.
