I have an Abit KA-7 100,an Abit KG7 Raid,and an Epox 8K7a+,that I tinker with.You can get these older boards cheap and have good performance.The KA-7 100 is an Athlon Classic board that is limited to a stock 1GHZ slot type cpu(I overclocked an 800 to 1GHZ w/goldfinger device)However the other 2 boards can be had for under $100.00 and with a bios flash from the manufacturer's website will allow you to slap a AMD xp 1900+ processor on them and both boards are overclocking friendly if you are into that stuff.Intel products are probably good also but I just can't afford the namesake Good Luck.....................Zipp

Hello to everyone,glad your back,just got your e-mail the other day.I just purchased win2k pro.Great op sys.I have a Leadtek A170 Geforce4 64mb graphics board.Without loading the drivers,the logo screen with the progress bar acts normally.After I load the drivers the sceen mentioned flashes twice before proceeding.A minor annoyance but I was wondering if anyone else has this problem with any of the other Geforce cards.Also if I may ask another question? As with my win xp, I cannot get the refresh rate ubove 60hz to be flicker free.The monitor is a Viewsonic A-70..........................Thanks to the most useful site...................Zipp
