Who has the idea about the above mother board combo, I have a ATX 250 w Power supply, I donot know if this motherboard combo fit my case?

Thanks
 
I am going to assume that you mean the m810LMR motherboard, and does not have an integrated cpu.

XP support is dependent on board revision:

Motherboard version 1.0 = No AGP port
Motherboard version 1.3 = No AGP port
Motherboard version 1.6 = First version with AGP port
Motherboard version 3.0 = Some support 266Mhz but not sure which
Motherboard version 5.0 = First with official support for 266FSB and 4 channel sound codec
Motherboard version 7.0 = First to support XP+ CPUs and "Morgan" Duron CPUs
Motherboard version 7.0a = First to support XP+ CPUs and "Morgan" Duron CPUs higher than 1600+
Motherboard version 7.1 = Current series

I use this board (rev 7.1a) and it works just fine with XP cpus. With the newest BIOS it supports XP2400+ and XP2600+ cpus.

Its a fine, but not spectacular, integrated board.

It is a micro ATX motherboard design so it fits most cases easily and it should use a good ATX PSU, like Antec or Enermax.
 
The PSU definitely is on the weak side; besides, most M810 don't like Thoroughbred CPUs at all. If that 1800+ is of the older "Palomino" breed, then off you go. T-bred? Good luck.
 
i've got an m810l v. 5.0 bought it on ebay for $18.


works fine with a xp1500+ . havent gotten around to flashing the bios correctly yet, but it should work ok.
