I'm running the RU standard 1.25 BIOS, the HPT support has not been removed. The Windows driver is Win2K 1.25 version 1.25 also I believe. I spent a sad couple of hours trying to get my new CELE2-1100MHz chip to run before I realized it was the HPT366 that couldn't handle all the new speed. I raced ...

You could add a 2nd Cele1/366 if your OS can support SMP dual CPUs Let me just say that a 1.1GHz Cele2/128K/100 with Neo-370 adapter will set you back about $95 in the USA. I've just finished moving my BP6 FSB speed up to 110MHz, and Win-XP is running just fine at 1.21GHz! Not bad for a 3-year old s...

Hey, Jay4hand -

Plan on working the Promise ATA100 or ATA133 card into your budget.
The HPT366 should only be used for CDROM & DVD drives - too flakey, slow, & crash prone. I don't think it will handle cylinder counts much beyond 4096.

Sorry, no P-III/133 Tulatin series FC-PGA2 CPUs have been reported to work on the BP6. The new NEO-370/2 adapter is NOT COMPATIBLE with the BP6. If they did work, they would be FSB clocked at not much over 110MHz giving just over 900MHz (for an 1100MHz stamped chip). Might as well get a P-III 850/10...

You may need to update your BP6 BIOS - version RU is good for W2000 & Win-XP. You also need to get the Win2000 (works in XP) H/W driver, version 1.25 or later, on a floppy to be inserted when Win2000 ask for 3rd party drivers to be installed. Once the driver is loaded into the Win2K build you should...
