Dam my Motherboard ECS K7S5A has just died. The first things to go was the IDE controller, then the memory size reporting. I just hope it's not took my New 9700pro card out :cry:

I'm using a P200 with 64MB of ram, (Out of the shed). It's a humbling experience. Got linux on there so it's not so bad. Oh well time for a new MB. Bloody computers.

Sorry t' hear about the problem Fizban... but is the a/m comment right? A 64mb P200???? You've got a new 9700 Pro installed on a 64mb P200 system??? The card is more powerful than the main system :D

No, I have a 2MB matrox Mystique card in this old linux box. It has 72pin memory and no AGP slot.

Thing is dam quiet though, no PSU fan and a little fan on the CPU. I can't hear it, Always a brucy bonus I suppose.
