Hi trag, Yes, I've modified Q605, not LC475, althoug I've put a jumper on the MB after I went to 40 MHz, which changed its gestalt ID to LC475. At first I swapped resistors to go…

nb: 40MHz is not always stable though. A heatsink/fan for the 040 would be a good idea. Click to expand... I can confirm it - at 40 MHz heatsink is a must and you should use a…

Imagine how much more complicated it would be if Apple didn't drop support for older hardware from time to time. This is the problem with Windows. They support so much legacy hardw…

If you can't find a socket with clips, you can get something like Arctic Silver thermal adhesive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835100005&cm_re=arc…

Don't try to pry one side out completely before the others. You'll bend some pins. You need to work around the CPU and try to pry all sides up a little at a time until it comes loo…

Check out this thread, it means that you've received a PM from a spammer, whose account has since been deleted. I get those emails too, and was wondering why until I saw that.

Shouldn't this be in the Lounge? On a related note, often when I go there I get a "1 new PM is waiting for you..." message, but when I click it it tells me I have no new messages!

Hey, I was trying to sign up there and it stated, "to make sure you're not a bot contact the board admin" but there was no link to do so, what happened?
