Well i dont know if i killed the CPU board or not, i took it apart to find out what CPUs it had. I didnt know of the other ways because i dont know SGI or IRIX at all. the least bit. lol. I pulled 1 CPU off the heatsink to check it out. I re-thermal pasted it and put it back onto the retainer and sandwhiched it all back together. i didnt loose any of the brissles from the CPU retainers.

Does the network card have PS/2 ports? well actually yes it does. :-) Interesting Cory. i didnt know that tidbit. the Octane also has 2 video ports. And one of them has a port for 3D Glasses

I also have 3 rack peices too. They are CMN026 models, but from researching there are many many many variants. These are DVI ports, theres like 2 or 3 in the middle back. Also the face is gray with purple HDD covers. also has a CDROM. These all came from the same place, and ive been vowed to have the HDDs wiped. would be nice to go through the files to see what they used/installed, but i dont need a lawsuit either. it is P&G afterall.
