Find a spare jumper, open the box up, remove the NIC (yeah, I know. you're going to love me when you have to put it back if it's in a 1U case...) to access JPXA1 (between the heatsink-covered HT-1000 and the ATI GPU), put the jumper on 1-2 becuase it's broken at 133MHz (gotta love that checksum offloading)... While you're there, you may also want to move JPL1 to disable the BCM5704C bge(4) unless you really need them (next to the slot for the IPMI riser). If the box is somewhere with inconvenient access you may also want to put a jumper on JP2 (front, near the fan header) to force power on (the BIOS options about this are ... somewhat lacking) > bios0 at mainbus0: AT/286+ BIOS, date 03/26/07, BIOS32 rev. 0 @ 0xf0010, lucky you - mine won't POST with that version unless CMOS is clear first (every boot), yum... I still *mostly* prefer them to X2100 though...
