Hi All,
Sorry if this is the wrong place for this post, but if people can offer
giveaways here, then I thought begging would be alowed too.
I have just aquired a second hand motherboard and want to get it
working, but don't want to spend a great deal of cash on it. The motherboard
is a P4M266A-MLV and I am not sure how old it is, but it isn't new, and as
such doesn't run (need) the latest and greatest stuff. I just want to get it
working, so if anyone has a second hand Socket 478 Pentium or Celeron
processor (up to 3.06 Ghz) and a couple of sticks of DDR200 or DDR266
unbufferred DDR SDRAM DIMM 2.5v RAM they don't need, then I can probably
take it off their hands. The specs are straight out of the motherboard
user's manual.
If anyone can help, please contact me off list. I live on the northside, and
I am finding it a bit hard to get to the meetings lately because I work
shift work, but I am willing to travel or meet somewhere. All reasonable
offers considered, but as I said I don't want to spend a huge amount of
cash. I can get new stuff from Gamedude, but I am trying to avoid that
experience if possible.
Finally, if anyone has any experience running Linux and/or BSD on this
motherboard, your comments would be apreciated also.
Thanks in advance,
Andrew.
