I have an AMD Athlon 1.1G, Asus A7V Motherboard, Tekram U160 SCSI controller,
IBM U160 SCSI drive with Elsa Gladiac Geforce2GTS and MDK7.2.

It all works fine far less problems than when trying to get same combination
running on W2K (which required me to
download loads of driver updates).

BIOS's on AMD motherboards / Geforce graphics cards seem to be in a state of
flux - download the updates before
installing MDK.

Oh... and AMD seem to be getting such good yields, that a 700/800 MHz
Thunderbird can easily be pushed to 1G / 1.1G using standard voltage settings
and heatsink for a 1G processor. Just get a graphite pen and short out the L2
links on the top of the processor before you plug it in (same goes for Durons,
700MHz durons run well at 1G). See www.tomshardware.com for info.

My second PC!! Complete with two (2!) MB of ram and an ISA graphics card -
friends used to come around and marvel at its speed!!!
