Poor Gretzky. Once a local hero, now a zero. Does he still have a Canadian passport?

Hehehe! You know, sometimes when a team constantly lives at the top, I think it is too easy to forget that you have to work to stay there.

Good luck! The metal ZIF bars are a pain, I am fortunate enough to have a board with the plastic levers that integrate into the ZIF socket. Just take your time putting things back together and you will be just fine.

after that i resoldered my exchange coil (6 windings) and then BINGO. did it works flawlessly is folding proteins since 3h. Hmmm. That sounds like you had a cold solder joint. What happens is that you heat the solder too much and you don't heat one of the points that you are trying to join. What ha...

But now: fpr vcore2 that is correct...

i cant find any other damaged caps, regulators or coils...but the pcb is burnt (black smoke) where the broken coil was. i cant solder the new one correct in because one of the holes cant be desoldered...so i cant measure any voltage at this coil...but at the other one that is ( so i think) is respo...

Purrkur, I thought if you use a UDMA2 as master and a PIO3 as slave the master would work at UDMA2 speed. Is that wrong? Yep. That is true. I can't really remember the speed of PIO3 (I think it was 13.3 MB/s) but I know for sure that PIO4 is 16.6 MB/s. If you have a second device running UDMA 33 or...

My DVD player for instance has an ATA/ATAPI-5 interface which translates into Ultra DMA66. So you are wrong when you ...
