Hi,

I have an old Athlon 1800+ XP Thoroughbred Processor and want to build a
second PC using it and an old ATA hard drive and 512MB DDR memory i have. I
also want the PC to have Firewire so i am looking for an appropriate
motherboard that will take the above which has Firewire on board.

I dont want to spend a fortune and would appreciate any suggesstions,

Thanks In Advance
Macca

I don't know about mobos since there's probably hundreds but an alternative
would be an original soundblaster Audigy card which you might want anyway.
It'll have a firewire port. Bids starting at $1 on ebay...

Biostar M7VIZ ver. 1.3 (not ver. 8.0). Uses VT8237 south bridge and
also has SATA sockets.
