I have a slot 1 dualie tyan tiger 133 I could sell ya! But that would be a hassle so.....

Slot 1 boards are pretty rare now you may not have much of a choice but to get whatever you can find! Id say any name abit/asus/intel would be fine, I mean its only a 450!

If I were you I would SERIOUSLY think about just upgrading. By the time you goto the bother of replacing the board your halfway to the cost of a new setup and all the hassle. Even if you dont need much an Athlon XP 1700+ (1466mhz) CPU, board, and 256 megs can be had for like $250!

Jesus saves, but Mario scores!!!

<A HREF="http://www.justdeals.com" target="_new">http://www.justdeals.com</A> has the Soyo SY-6BA+III for $40, and the SY-6BA+IV for $50. The $40 board is supposed to be better than the BX6 r2.0, and the $50 board includes a UDMA66 controller. I have the $40 board, it's rock solid at 150MHz FSB, fast, and has the venerable BX chipset as did the BX6.

What's the frequency, Kenneth?
