motherboard for win98

[Guest teebo]

As I like to have a 65nm-processor in my new computer

and the motherboard I looked at didn't supported that,

I'm looking for another one. The ones AMD list at their page

as capable of stepping G1-processors (65nm) are the following:

 

Anyone have tried or otherwise know something about any

of these, and/or how they work with (fully patched) win98se ?

(or the chipset they use etc)

Re: motherboard for win98

 

after I wrote this I have found out that the motherboard

I looked at first (ASUS M2V, with VIA K8T890 chipset)

do support the AMD64 3800+ stepping G1 65nm (ADH3800DEBOX)

so I guess I buy it anyway.

 

Only problem is that the bios must be flashed to a new

version first to support stepping G. Will it be possible to

use my processor when running the (bios-builtin) bios upgrading?

or do I have to temporary put another (allready supported)

processor in to do the flasing...?

will the webshop I buying it from do it for me?

 

(there is another motherboard ASRock ALiveSATA2-GLAN that

have same chipset that I might consider too, but I haven't

read much about it yet, if it has support for for G1 without

flashing bios etc)

 

 

But it is of course still interesting to know about the

win98-compatibility of the other motherboards/chipsets

that I listed in the previous post :-)

IF [emphasis if] the shop is selling both the processor and the board to

you, they would be the ones to flash the BIOS.

IF [emphasis if] you have told them you intend to use the board with that

processor they can hardly sell you a board which does not suit the intended

use. I WOULD, however, first get them to explain who is liable should the

flash fail. It should be their responsibility. A reputable dealer would have

a much easier time returning a failed flash [fried board] than you would.

Make sure the board and processor is stable BEFORE removing it from the

store, they should be able to run it or do burn-in at the store.

I would find a board with native [original] processor support if possible.

Make sure BEFORE you purchase the board and processor, that there are

drivers for your intended use. That's ALL intended use [printers, USB

devices, scanners, video, hard drives, etc.] Also, that the intended case

has excess power [potential future use] AND lots of cooling.
