Hi folx,
Anyone here who managed to get a Mitac BK6731 to work with a Pentium III 700/100/256 ?
I made a Biosupgrade with rom.by's biospatcher so that HDD's over 65gig and new CPU's should be accepted.
Also - the motherboard has got an Intel 810 chipset, so the 100mhz variant of the PIII should be accepted.
But the display stays black
When I pop in the old Celeron 433 all is fine again.
Didn't find any jumpers on the board.
Any other ideas ?
THX,
Andy
P.S: The PIII cpu is okay - checked that in another board
Mitac BK6731 with FSB100 PIII - black screen
seems the mainboard doesn't support FCPGA(-II) cpus. you have to mod. the board or stick to PPGA cpus. there's no way to get around this with a bios update or mod. it is a hardware lockout mechanism.
