BP6.Com

Can't believe I remembered my login. I thought I would see if the site was still up. Haven't been here in a years and behold, there are a few recent posts on the forum! Aw well. I'm getting rid of my BP6 on Craigslist finally. 366's @ 550MHz @ 1.95v. I bet I will end up having to give it to Goodwill...

Here is a link to the BIOS I am using now:

Sorry guys, the forum didn't notify me anyone replied. I will try biosmods, thanks.

@ Dave, I have 1.30 installed. Did that before installing the CPU. Here is the technical info on the PIII SL53S, and the Celeron SL4GX.

I have a Toshiba Satellite 1735 with a Phoenix BIOS. It had a 700MHz Celeron in it and I purchased a 1GHz PIII off of eBay to upgrade it. Unfortunately it boots up as a 700MHz PIII now. Everest shows an 88MHz FSB x 7, so it may not even be running at 700MHz. So, can anyone out there help me out and ...

holy double post Batman! Delete me!

I think you mean APIC, not ACPI. List the steps you took to compile the kernel and I will help. I had 5.0 running at home for a while. 4.8 right now.

There are traces in the layers, but I don't see it being too difficult. As long as you understand that and have enough common sense to do a good job, all should be well. Just tin the leads up really good and try to remove as little solder as possible when removing the old components. It should be pr...

There was a fix posted by zetetic on the old board.

The threads I remember were specifically about the MX cards, which was also the card I had trouble with at the time.

m0gely, What's with the AGP/GF2 problems you refer to in your post? Well, I can say this is one problem I had with my BP6 as well. I had a TNT2 in there previously. At the time, I was running NT4. I just put the card in, and went to play some Q3 (of course). The game would lock the machine hard wit...

Just luck or the skill and knowhow?=) I would say luck. My 2 abit boards never gave me any problems untill my bp6 just recently. But I have seen and heard of MANY from multiple sources that say otherwise. It is a well known fact that abit has a quality control problem. This is not debatable. The EC...

After going through two Abit boards in two years I've gone Gigabyte/MSI. I hope their production engineering department can back up their design engineers and turn their slump around. Yeah. My first Abit was a TX-5. It was a great board. And my BP6 has been better to me than most have been to other...

and this relates to freebsd because?

I can't really speak for NetBSD as I haven't tried it. but FreeBSD works great. Was stable on my bp6 and I had zero problems with hardware.

Edit: If you have a pirated serial number you won't be able to access Windows update. (Even with a generated number).

This... is not true :P You won't be able to with the popular FCKGW key, but with a generated key, you most certainly can. At least for now :)

snugglebear is correct. What I meant was more in the direction of the end user experience. However in taking any of these OS's apart you see their origins, which is the *unix* that came from Bell. At some point the modifications to the original make it a different animal. You bring up NT and its' ki...

i have to ask, why isn't the front page to bp6.com the main page to the site? ever since the move from the original page it's been like that and for the life of my i can't imagine why? the whole redirecting thing was annoying, now you pick. i know most people just go to the gamesquad site or to the ...

and as for the tutorial, installing it on a bp6 is no different than any other mobo. making a paper on it would be redundant. groups.google.com is your friend.

Very similar to unix? You arent that familiar w/ unix are you? It _is_ unix. unix comes in different flavors. AT&T and BSD were the first. Linux is also a type of unix. While not identical in operation or in focus, they are all unix. google for 'unix hostory".

actually it works very nice. so stable i can't beleive it. email me if you need any help.

do you really thing a video card thread is the right place for this post?

a 250wt power supply is fine, however it may not last as long as a 300 or 350wt ps as it must work harder. what you want more than anything is a repuatable and high quality ps.

you know, i had a misunderstanding of the divider in the bios you are right. my bad. although, setting that divider int he BIOS *is* what fixed my problem. your tnt2 will work fine, so did mine. it's the gf2 cards that have this problem, or at least that when this problem came about. i'm not sure if...

i have a multimeter and generally know how to use it. any help would be appreciated. it just doesn't work. i can take the fan for cpu#2 and put it over on the header for cpu#1 and it works fine. right now i have an extention i made from another fan going down to the case fan header at the bottom of ...

heya, lemme know when you get it too please
