BCN, slighty off topic here, I see in your sig you flashed your lite-on, I have the same one, can you give me any tips/links to do the same?

Just get low density sticks, a 256MB will have chips on both sides, 16 total I think. I always ask if the memory is "BX" chipset compatible before I buy (usually buy on forums, so the people selling usually know this).

InactiveX, you may be on to something, I'll see if that is the case. But even after marking all read, I'll come back the next day and there's 50-80 unread posts again. I thought it was just reporting the threads with new posts, not the actual number of posts. If it is the posts, then it is probably ...

Great name idea, InactiveX!

32MB of ram, what does that thing take? I might have some laying around. Even if you doubled it to 64MB, I'm sure it would speed things up quite a bit.

Not sure if this is a bug or not, or if its on my end or yours Derek, but when I log on to the board it always had a large number of unread posts, when I click it to read them, there is always alot less than what it says. For example, today it says view unread posts(73), but there were about 20. Thi...

I had a 20MB on my 286, and believe me, it filled up plenty fast if you liked to download. I remember getting my US Robotics dual standard modem, of course I got it after I downloaded 7 3.5" **unnamed** operating system disks (still have the 7 3.5" somewhere). I couldn't believe what a difference 24...

April Fool's?

Reply, well, I didn't buy them because I wanted to trade them away. Check ebay for deals, or post a "Wanted to buy" thread here. I got my 400s because I mentioned in and IRC channel that I was having no luck finding 366s. One of my friends had the 400s with intel heatsinks! A few days later, and (to...

Yes that is correct, I thought I replied to this thread, but I guess not.

I only have two sticks of 256MB PC133 Crucial, nothing in third slot, works better than trying to get three to play nicely together. Update: Not only did my last install have the bios acpi set wrong, I believe the PSU was also contributing to the problems. The antec with the screwy powerswitch (cycl...

I've been emailing you about this trade. As soon as you reply, I'll paypal you the $12. Thanks.

acelondon, you need a powerleap neo s370 or equivalent to use a coppermine cpu (aka fcpga, or flipchip celeron) in the bp6.

Video cards used in this config: AGP GF3 ti200 64MB, AGP Matrox G100 4MB, PCI GF2 MX400 64MB

Sound: Currently ISA Creative Vibra 16 PnP, also used a pci ct5803 (creative SB16 OEM), but needed to move cards around anmd had to go to a ISA soundcard when I added a promise tx2000 IDE card.

bluliz : If you were to have 400s at 520, that would mean your fsb would be 86-87mhz. The bp6 doesn't have the 1/3 divider until 92fsb, so your agp would be running at 86 and pci at 43. Not good, and I wouldn't recommend it. The best option for 400s, if they will run it (proper cooling, and a good ...

bwi's 1700 is probably a t-bred chip. They run at lower voltages and the 'B' type ones overclock well. Also the temp of 38c he gives is most likely from the sensor under the socket, his on die is probably mid to high 40s. My 1700 tbred B is also running at 2.18, I limited by a kt333 board and can't ...

Do you have to run windows to use this program?

How come none of the hacked/modified bioses have more memory timing support if it is changeable through registry, it should be in bios, no?

Ya, that's what I was thinking also. Thanks for the vote of confidence. Yay, soon I'll have two bp6's... maybe this new board will be better for my 400s and I can run them at 600! Then the 366s in the old board at 550 or higher. Otherwise I'll have the 400s @ 552 and the 366s @ 550 or higher. I stil...

Yeah, a good deal, my 400s were $25 shipped, with the stock HSFs also. They run at 552, though so I dunno what the 366s will do besides give me 8mhz fsb increase. Howwever I do have another bp6 on the way, with two 466s, two alphas, and either 384 or 512 ram. Can't wait to check it out. Its unmodded...

I would like to dib these if they are still available pending some information. You've got mail.

faster bus speeds on the ram/pci/age ect. /r/ect./etc. 366s at 550 with 100 fsb will have the same pci and agp bus speed as at 66fsb, because you have to change the agp ratio from 1/1 to 2/3, otherwise you'll be trying to run the agp at 100fsb. But you are correct in wanting the 100 fsb, it definet...

Just a suggestion: invest $50 in a few 4' flourescent shoplights, the more the better. More efficient than those incandescent bulbs, and easier to work. You will be able to work longer without getting as tired. Trust me. I put 12 4' double tube lights in my basement, and its literally like night and...

To the original poster: Dual 1 gigs wont work, unless extensive modifications, and even then probably won't work. Also, onboard hpt366 is flaky, don't use it, unless you're one of the lucky ones it works for.

have fun with your bp6!

Thanks! I kept looking for this site when I saw it linked on all the BeOS sites and forums I've been visiting. I thought it was no longer. Didn't matter though, all my hardwares are fine for BeOS.

Ok, I'll stick with the IDE replacment driver. Too bad about the monitor, I just gave away an older (but still good) generic 17"!!! Doh! Is your BP6 in the habit of changing VCore then? That's odd. Yes, its odd, and kind off frustrating. It sometimes boots with 2.0 vcore on both procs verified by MB...

Ok, installed BeosMax and used the IDE replacment driver boot floppy then installed that driver from the beos desktop. So far so good. I had to force 640x480 for install because of an old monitor I am using. It will do 800x600, but only at 60hz. When I try to change to 8x6 60hz beos won't let me bec...
