Gosh, Piracy is a topic that gets me going. Even though I dissagree with some kinds of copyrights...its still the law. The ability to get away with breaking the law doesn't make it OK.

Re: XP SP2 Install - Wont Boot unless VGA Mode

I've a slip streamed SP2 version of XP... Not the issue you are chasing but, which version of XP? If its XP home it will only support one cpu. ...it installs fine until the final reboot then it just hangs, the only way I can get into XP is with a VGA mode boot ... then everything works fine (even m...

gulassi, Glad to hear about your sucess. Sounds like you have a winner. I love when Celerons beat-down Pentiums. It just makes me feel good. Anyway, The 366@550 on 100fsb will probably give you better real results then the 466@546 on 78fsb. Thats because the interaction between the ram and cpu is ab...

Under those conditions I'd go the INTEL route with dual 2.8Gig hyperthreading chips just to see what apps actually gain from dualing with hyperthreading. Maybe using "affinity filters" to try assign 4 seperate benchtests or something.

If memory serves...no dual Athlon64 system exists.

BTW, what measures are you taking to protect the BX? You know that when running over 100fsb on dual CPUs a BX440 can cook red meat as well as any charcoal pit.

jaybird,
PCI-4 and PCI-5 claim a bus mastering issue and you may not really have an IRQ conflict. Both cards have to be able to handle bus mastering but I dont grasp how to set it...maybe like primary/secondary on IDE drives or something.

Sound blaster for 8 bit sound.
Paradise makes an 8 bit VGA card.
I have in my stock an 8 bit IDE adapter.
There is a Rockwell 2400baud modem.

Ok, I will quit being 'smartty' and ask what you want the ISA for.

No to another subject, cooling. What would be the best way to cool the overclocked cellys. I'm thinking of a kind of windtunnel with a big fan to blow air onto the processors. For this I'm going to need quite large heatsinks. Any suggestions for model fitting the mobo with little or no modding. Fir...

Just a shot in the dark here(and you no doubt already tried it). In a situation like that I would disconnect all drives but the target(set as single on IDE1) and the floppy. I boot into dos6.2 or win98 on the floppy and fdisk the 40gig to delete all the partitions. Do a power off for a few seconds a...
