I bought a micronics li-6 because I got so frustrated trying to run NT on an IDE drive-Freebsd on SCSI. Everytime (once every 3 days) I booted it (NT)I got a BSOD. Even with SP3. Well the PPro's just keep getting more affordable and i built a new box with old harddrive, new case, cdrom, etc. My question is - where did you find a VRM for the second proc? They are hard to come by. I want to go 3.0 on my Micronics board, but am having difficulty finding a VRM. Someone Quoted $52.00 from a manufacturer, but that seems insane when you can find the whole board for 65-70, with the second VRM mind you. If you have a good source let me know. I have been up on FreeBSD 3.0-980520-SNAP for about a week and a half now, just slicing away. Man the kernel rebuilds are speedy!
