yeah, no order showing for me but got the confirmation email, although it's saying pre-order and November 30th also. Can't even cancel it lol will give them some time n maybe call them at some point

That went well, after completing my order with a competitor, it magically turned into a pre-order for 30th Novemeber n they took the money, lol I didn't agree to a preorder... pfff

Sitting here waiting on my day off hopefully i can get one from somewhere, using a 2600X as a temp CPU, upgrading from a 1950X.

With a 2800+ 333mhz fsb it should just run at 400 with the multiplier locked though it may be difficult to get more out of it than that so basically running it as a 3200+ could try small bumps up in voltage to see if that helps, could try in 1mhz increments 201/202 fsb

Wing Commander, More-so the latter games in the series, 3/4/Prophecy etc, yeah there's Star Citizen but it's not really the same thing, I want a grand cinematic single player campaign with actual acted FMV sequences.

Ye olde 20GB IPod classic i bought on ebay back in may arrived today, along with the CF to SD card adapter, so New Battery, old HDD out and new SD card in, IPod is rocking once more. old battery held a little charge but is a bit bulgy, and the old tiny Toshiba 20GB HDD actually still works, so...

Ha yeah that's one reason I got it, filling up a full tower case, it's nice for front headphone jack and volume control. Very cool board I really like mine, have a 3200+ in it with a SB X-fi fatal1ty + drive bay although not currently hooked up I need to redo the fans n wiring and drives...

Playing with these: Just arrived today, well the Audigy Live Drive and the top Audigy 2 ZS (bought it for the live drive but always nice to have another, really like these sound cards) All working and sound great, thankfully neither have the noise issue(capacitor related some of them suffer...

Blame the solder, :D were you using the lead-free stuff? It's terrible, some extra flux can help clean up the solder joints and fill up the holes nicely also some nice lead solder 60/40 stuff does the job. have you tested it out yet sound good?

Which one did you go for? I've been thinking about getting one to play around with.

Yeah they've been on ebay for a while the price dropped a bit so i went for it, had been trying to get a M-ATX/ATX SS7 board for a while now with the MVP3 chipset after my VA-503+ babyAT board died(read murdered). but deals / imports kept falling through n then coronavirus pff! I think the...

This sexy lil beastie (DTK PAM 0079V E0) arrived this morning, SS7 goodness, VIA Apollo MVP3 chipset, ATX form factor, onboard PS/2, USB, and Yamaha YMF715E sound, ISA slot, PCI and AGP 2x, Really nice little board i paid too much for :D should be a nice upgrade for one of my BabyAT based...

Totally, I don't have the space for a SC55 setup sadly so one or two of these does the trick nicely, and it's great being able to swap round externally or for cards with no wavetable header, waiting on a board arriving which has a YMF71* onboard, but not wavetable header, should make a nice...

Just Arrived this morning, Amazing little piece of kit for anyone on here who doesn't know of it already: Dreamblaster S2 Wavetable midi board from serdaco/serdashop; not only that but a Chill & Phil midi/Gameport to Wavetable adapter (got the solder kit so threw it toegther n testing now) Sound...

What chipset is on the motherboard? some of the socket 7 chipsets are a little picky with graphics cards and PCI/AGP bridge / bus drivers and the graphics drivers under windows.(latest 98se drivers from nvidia are also terrible and buggy)

So I got a few Arduinos / teensy boards in to experiment, on the back of work from others I've got my sidewinder GamePad working via USB through a Sparkfun Pro Micro(arduino leonardo compatible), little bit of code that uses serial input from the Sidewinder and coverts it into keyboard inputs to...

As nice as a V5500 would be they're just too damn pricey and flaky these days, and what they can do can be matched via nglide or other period cards, V3 imo is still king or a V4. I like to keep V2 SLI around for cool factor though, and the V5 100% has that along with the Rage Fury Maxx.

What else is going into the machine? I need to get hold of a K6-III at some point. Today I've been playing around with more Gameport Joysticks and Gamepads. a Rockfire Nest USB adapter arrived today, waiting on some other bits then i'm going to try n throw together a usb adapter for Sidewinder...

What version of windows are you using? what does CPUZ say? (if you dont have it, download it and run it)

Windows 98SE may also have issues with the ram size, I'd cut it down to 512MB if you can until you get it installed and patched up, may be ok with 1GB . Just a little note ontop of what Armageus said. Try a Gparted live CD / usb to format full size
