A customer repair I got last week was a Duron system that would beep twice when powered on and do nothing else. I ended up transferring their drives to a different case with a replacement motherboard and memory.

At first the board would only work out of the case. Eventually it decided it wanted to work, so I'm setting it up with Windows 2000.

Duron 850mhz

192MB RAM (had 128MB originally)

Jetway 830CF Socket A motherboard (SiS 730 chipset)

ATX case

300w power supply

I've added a CD-ROM drive, a USB2/FW400 card, a floppy drive, a 6.4GB hard disk and an ATI Radeon 9250 PCI card with 256MB RAM.

It still acts up once in a while, but otherwise appears to work OK.
