Maybe not spam exactly...but it doesnt have anything to do with BP6 motherboards.

On the positive side...at least he put it in the classifieds.

Geez, jay, I was reading reviews on that board yesterday. Isn't that the first "duallie duallie duallie tuallie" board? (Dual cpus, ddr, raid and it can run Tualatins) Anyway, I've had luck by pulling the bios chip then powering the board a few seconds, power off and then re-inserting the bios chip....

Jaybird, Sometimes it shows how much I don't know what Im talking about. I somehow thought the upgraded c'mines had the S designation. That is wrong. It is a T not an S. Also, the color is different. The upgrade c'mine is the same color as the older c'mine...brighter green...but has the large heat s...

The first step is get two Power Leap NEO-370s. Glad to see you are not a n00b. It makes explaining easier. Remember the BP6 is designed for dual celeron which requires a different pin configuration. Once you can locate the NEO-370s you will have to modify them, also mod the sockets, then change the ...

I don't think anyone has pulled it off yet. There have been several posts suggesting someone might do the "Dual Tual" dance but there are no posted success stories yet. On a different note I was thinking about upgrading my uni 486 to dual tualatins. I only need one adaptor to make that 486 more powe...

The article captured the way I felt about the BP6 and AMD's 4X4. My first trip into dual was a P-PRO and it was a dissapointment. The BP6 is great cause it uses cheap CPUs and a flexable FSB and there is experimenting with ATA66 and all that stuff. Ya know, people that MOD the board for coppermine P...

headspirit, My guess is the BSOD you told us about was not related to the CPUs but everything else on the board being over clocked. If you get 366s its almost a guarantee you can run 100FSB which will put everything at its rated speed but the CPUs which will be running 50% faster. You will like the ...

Two parameters of biggest concern on HDs are RPM and the cache size. 8Meg cache on a 7200rpm set to ata33 will usually out preform 5400RPM with a 512K cache set on ata66. That ata rating is mostly a hype parameter manufacturers use. Dont get me wrong, there is some truth in it but you will be hard p...

The BX440 can only recognize sticks up to 256...and they have to be the older kind with chips on both sides. Ive seen them called double density. The 128meg sticks are probably showing up correctly but that 512 meg stick should be seen as a 256 stick. At least when I used a spare 512meg in my BP6 it...

Jay, Im sure you got the tullies because you didn't mention the S marking anywhere. I looked quite a bit today. The 512k L2 was on a limited supply of c'mines and they have the designation "S" on them. If my info was correct the S series were made kinda between Coppermine and Tulalatin. They are mos...

You mean there are people that have AV software and turn it OFF to surf the net? Thats plain stupid.

BTW, there are some free sources of AV still out there. One of them is even recomended by Microsoft.(and it works pretty good)
