Hi Nick,
I've got this Soltek motherboard running with RH7.1. I've just got a
Duron 700 in it that I got at a good price from a friend.
video is Leadtech Gforce 2 MX 32MB. I'm not really into games but I
thought I might get a half decent video card for this machine.
Fitted 256MB RAM. Network card is Dlink DFE530TX+.
It's very stable with RH and Win98
All hardware was detected on the RH install including sound. Only
comment I have is the click at the start and end of a MP3 playing with
XMMS. Realplayer would not play sound, just a great hissing noise.
Haven't relolved that one yet but it's not high on my list.
Got mine from Tastech, I think they've dropped about $10 in the past
month.
