OK - looking for advice...
My main rig blew up. Seeing that its more important to be able to work I reformatted another machine to build before serious diag on my main machine... The way it is acting is HW not SW so I'm suspecting CPU or MB but for the moment I'll assume MB...
Main machine:
Asus A7N266-E (Nforce1 w/IGP)
AMD XP1700
So, if I need an MB I'll want something that supports hopefully to 400FSB for future CPU upgrade but it needs to be backwards compatible to 266FSB to use my existing CPU.
Now I used to O'Clock before it was fashionable but don't really need to anymore (maybe a little). Anyone have preferences on current MBs? I might spring for another NForce(2) with the IGP or something with no IGP and toss a budget card in too (so sugestions there are good too). Main thing is I need to be somewhat cheap about it. Can't afford right now to go big $$...
Thanks....
