It's not stable at 233, but it ran fine at 200. You need the fan to cover the regulator next to the CPU as well; the heatsink on it is not adequate even at 166MHz. > Also make sure you have cache RAM installed.

You can grab the cache DIPs from any old 486 mobo. cgd very accurately described the NoName/Multia as "slower than snot running down the wall on a cold day". Note also that you may have problems with some PCI cards; the firmware and chipset are a bit touchy. = Mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
