Yup they are ISA slots. But only seven total are usable on that motherboard - the last PCI and first ISA slot share a backplane space. Gotta love single slot S3 Virges! kadiir: That's certainly an interesting read. I ended up selecting Debian and writing/hacking together a script to set it up as a r...

Silent Smoothwall
I received this box free from my uncle, not really as a gift but as a "I'm tired of this taking up space in my basement, so you can have it because you will put it to use" thing. So I immediately started converting it to a Smoothwall box, which I hope to have in service Monday when I get more ethern...

Ah I thought you would be familiar with the old wire grill, it has been around forever. Nice color, although I prefer the classic chrome grill. I think the chrome grill is less restricitive because it doesn't have a layer of paint. :P The paint is probably thin enough to not make any significant di...

Re: What's my best bet at muffling my PC?
CPU Cooler: + 80mm aftermarket HSF, thermaltake maybe? 2250 RPM GPU Cooler: Stock cooling..I believe it is a 50mm fan maybe? There are probably your two biggest problems. Neither Tt nor 50mm fans are known for quietness. You could swap out or fanmate the CPU fan and get something like a Zalman NBF4...

Hah, thanks for refuting my argument about hard drives. I didn't realize that the Bigfoots weren't on all the time. And I had forgot about SCSI drives; I used to have a server with them and it was murder. If the Bigfoots aren't on all the time (which wasnt in your original post), then by all means k...

...why the heck are you using two of what may possibly be the loudest hard drives ever made??? Seriously, that's a horrible build. You're trying to keep new, hot components cool in a case from 1997 with horrible airflow. You're not going to be able to do that without further modding: : Swap the posi...

My f-lock stays in the normal setting, because I didn't bother installing the driver for my S510. I love this setup since it's cool-looking and is actually pretty decent for a membrane keyboard. If I had the desk space, I'd use one of my old Model M's though. Only problem with the S510 I've had is t...
