SOLTEK SL-75DRV2

[Chicken_Attack]

I was wonderin guys... Im building a new PC for my dad and i bought him a geforce card and a Duron 1.2... I tried using an old PC chips socket A mobo with the KT133 chipset... And well, it wouldnt even post... I was pretty sure that duron was too fast for it and too advanced since they changed the duron core since the mobos production... And now i need a better mobo... I want the SOLTEK SL-75DRV2 (Purple Ray Ver.)with the KT 266a chipset, cause he wants to use an old ata 66 Hard drive for some reason, i guess he just wants to be a hardass... What do yall think of this board? Will it work with my duron 1.2? Im almost sure it will, but its better safe than sorry... Oh one last question, when i booted that duron up in that old mother board that didnt even get to post or any bios beeps, it didnt damage it did it?

Thanks for any replys! Drew

the CPU should be fine, don't worry. It will work in the KT266A based board, no doubt. Enjoy.

I used the SL-75DRV2 with my "old" Athlon 1600+, and I really loved the board. It´s VERY stable and has alot of cool features!

I had a cool sig. ready, but my dog ate it!

yeah i have that board too, it runs my AthlonXP1900+, it will run your Duron and its generally a very good mobo

Hay thanks alot guys!!! I think ill order that board now...
But i saw for 15 bucks more, i could get the
SOLTEK SL-75DRV5 with the VIA KT333 for like 15 bucks more... It supports a ata 66 drive, but the duron 1.2 will work on that one right?

Thanks guys!<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by Chicken_attack on 06/18/02 06:55 PM.</EM></FONT></P>
