Shuttle SK41

[milne]

Anyone know if there is a different board I can get for this? Mine fried and I dont want to spend $180 for a board from Shuttle!

not that I'm aware of.... They're weird proprietary ones IIRC, to fit into that tiny case.

You could cut your losses and buy a new ATX or MATX board and case for that price, and re-use all the RAM, HDDs etc from your shuttle.

This is why I'd never buy a cube PC.

Yeah, I kow I should. I am really tight on space plus I have 5 other towers sitting here. I should probably just move to a laptop instead.
I do like the Shuttle and all....first trouble I had with it.

You know I have the same XPC from Shuttle with a XP 2400+ and a GeF3 plus 512mb of pc3200 and I am so happy with it I stopped using my main pc.
Sorry to hear your Mb fried.
I know $180 is kinda steep for a KM266 Mb but you can upgrade to their Nforce2 Mb at about the same price.
I hope this helps.


Beam me up Scotty.

It doesnt end here. I pull the case off and try to boot it. Like any good pc tech, I start whacking the power supply
) Sure enough, it almost gets completely booted then stops.....argh!!

Oh well, guess I will part it out. No way will I pay $180 for a board when I can get the whole thing for $170.

You could go with a MicroATX slim tower, they're actually narrower than a cube!
