Here's the retro computing corner i've been working on for a while, since about 2013 or so when I got my first retro machine (that I have now given to a friend). It's pretty ghetto, but it works. It's very tight for space in my small room and using the computers is kind of a pain as the keyboard/mouse/monitor cables needs to be moved to each machine. I bought a KVM but unfortunately the cables are sold separately and are expensive, so i'm still stuck moving cables.
 
 
For you Mac fans I have a PowerMac G4 500 Sawtooth sitting at my grans house, with the original 17" Studio Display (Trinitro- uhh I mean Diamondtron goodness). Nothing too special but if you want to see it next time I'm down there I'll take some pics. Just let me know.

This is like eBay dropping online auctions and focusing on local auctions and re-branding themselves as Bay

I've always wanted to use lightscribe, but I've never been able to find anyone selling the media. Pioneer has their own alternative called LabelFlash which works on ANY disk, where it burns to specific points on the data layer to create an image, which is awesome, but in practice it's useless. It takes far too long and it's barely legible, and if the disk is used up more than 80% or so you can't do it as it burns the label into the unused portions of the data layer around the outer edge of the disk.

Because it's not really worth their time developing a pretty BIOS setup menu for a system where most likely the person using it will never even see it.

The guy in that forum post was trying to put a 45nm Core2 chip in a board that only supports 65nm, that's why it didnt work for him. Since the E8400 is already 45nm, any 45 or 65nm chip (such as this Xeon) should work in his board.

It should work.

knowing these Retailer-based youtube channels history....tigerdirect and newegg both dropped the ball when their talent left.
 

Damn, Vista still feels new. RIP.

The reason Windows can fail to load on a board swap is because it doesn't have the proper drivers for the storage controller. If he's going from a 970 board to another there should be no reason to reinstall.
 
OP try going into your BIOS and making sure your boot order is set correctly.

i can't believe this hasn't been posted yet
