In english please?

 

[snakesnfrogs]

if you're talking about standoffs and the little red fiber washers, I would say you definitely need them...

 

[bigbootydaddy]

yeah, do not turn on comp if mobo is not sititn on brass stands or something equivalent.

 

[Czar]

eh.. is this general hardware?

yes you need these disks, well you dont realy but its alot safer.

The red insulators, that you usually use on the mobo screws, I do not have any. and I'm gonna add another standoff or 2 back beneath the ram and the ide connectors, ok? but i need 8 screws.... but this case came with black coated screws, will those work?

 

[ArkAoss]

yo, any body?

 

[Czar]

Just go to your &quot;momNpop&quot; computer store and ask for a few, they are surely going to give you some.

 

[Tauren]

Personally I have never used insulators. 5 systems, no problems.

 

[ArkAoss]

well the case came with black screws, i'm going to use these. i've got the standoff's. for non overclocked, i should just leave the frequenc setting to auto right? (jumpers)

 

[pX]

damn, i have never used the red thingys, ever. always wondered what thos suckers were.

 

[Windogg]

Dozens and dozens of systems and I've never used the red insulators. I just made sure I used the right sized screws and none of the traces were covered an a way that would cause a short circuit.

 

[ArkAoss]

ok, well this is an msi board, book says nothing about supporting the celery 500's i got for it. but on the board there's a jumper to choose between cumine, and celeron. i switched it to celeron, but the book doesn't document it's existance, and i don't have fan's for the proc's so, i won't be able to test it for a few days. dang it.

 

[Slappy5]

Ark, it really depends on the mobo and the screw type. Reason being is that the disks prevent shorts that direct contact with some of the circuits might develope (it sounds like you're already aware of that, though.) I have not had to use the red disks on any board since the FIC va-503+ since designers typicaLly take that into consideration these days. If you have them, use them them. If not don't worry about it unless your board fails to light up.

I don't think the Celeron2s can be used in SMP. Plus the MSI 694 only supports 1 Celeron anyway.

 

[ArkAoss]

well, forget the screws already, these proc's i grabbed ain't too good lookin, one has a compaq sticker on it.....

removed..... don't like the proc's one bit, lowballin isn't too bright i guess.

 

[Slappy5]

That's odd, what would prevent the Celeron 2's from smp? Just curious, as I have no experience with the,, just their P3 counter-parts.

[loup garou]

Nope, CII's are not SMP capable. Intel took care of that after the popularity of the BP6. :|

EDIT: Anyways, aren't Celly 500s original Celeron's, not CII's?

 

[ArkAoss]

ok, well smack me now, i don't think these are even celery 2's.....

 

[ArkAoss]

ok, wait, if i figure it right, these are celery ones, (celery 2 is coppermine right?)
and if the board will use them as celery 1's, it'll use them.


and the ram, though i ordered pc 100 is pc 133
512mb of pc 133 WOOT

 

[ArkAoss]

so does any one think this board won't be able to do dual celery 1's??
