It is an Abit-TX5(http://www.abit-usa.com/html/tx5.htm) motherboard with an Award Soft Menu Bios which I have flashed to a bios dated 7/98..... I just noticed that there is a newer version that states it is for cpu compatibility, I will upgrade it next time I have to reboot. -- Brian --------------------------------------------------------------------- "Never criticize anybody until you have walked a mile in their shoes, because by that time you will be a mile away and have their shoes." - unknown Mechanical Engineering [EMAIL PROTECTED] Purdue University http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~servis ---------------------------------------------------------------------
