Damn Doc!! That sucks that AOpen board is junk. There are a lot of the caps leaking for sure.

Have you tried to fire that Duron up on anything? I have seen similar chips that have the edge broke and they worked just fine.

I believe that the advanced BIOSes needed huge EEPROMs which were very expensive back in the day. Your average run of the mill EEPROM in the mid 2000s was 4-8 megabits, and the latest UEFI boards typically have 64 megabits to play with.

Alright fellow owners of old stuffs, I have a question. I have my old trusty Abit kt7a board and supporting compnants. I need some ideals of what to do with it. I already have one hell of a win xp rig so I don't really need another one. I don't have a win 2k disc or key anymore so thats out the window. I also have a good win 98se rig. It does have a 2400+ cpu (highest it can run) and 1.5 gb of pc133 memory. I am not ready to put the thing out to pasture but I need a good ideal to continue to give it life other then a file server.

The main "old" rig i have got WinME on it and using it for all the old games\software i have [for those moments when you need nostalgia ] but that's a good question since now i have 3 or 4 more now and don't know what to do with them other than running winME

HD2600 X2??

What a coincidence! I found an HD2600XT AGP at the flea market. It's missing the heatsink so I ordered one of those chinese Zalman-look-alike HSF on eBay. Hopefully it'll work. Pics tonight.

256MB PC100 SDRAM w/ECC. Thought the dual-PCB design was unusual. We're running these in some of our old servers.
