SM23 needs your help!

SM23, the rig that was donated by Mortin's mother after his death, is in need of a new motherboard. The current board is regularly locking up and resetting units.

Is there anyone with a board compatible with a XP1800+ that could donate it to the SMx Project? It would have the honor of residing in this very special SMx rig :) Please let us know in the next day or two if you do. We'd like to get it folding again immediately. Thanks! :cool:

    SM23 is already out and being hosted by our teammate TBonZ. It just needs a new MB to keep going.

    There will be a major announcement concerning upcoming SMx rigs very soon. :cool:

    Anyone out there want to be a hero?

    All of our SMx computers are special, but there is a lot of history behind this particular rig.

    If you've got a board laying around that is suitable, why not etch your name in the annals of the SMx Project by donating it to Team 93? :)

    what socket type does the board need to have. I might have one for it. I don't think i could give it away but i could give it up for a really good price.

    Yeah, I'm having all sorts of trouble with the MB unfortunately. Any help given is very much appreciated.

    rechief - About the NF7, it's on RMA or something? Are you thinking of donating it or are you selling it?

    bikerboy - Although I am on the SMx commitee, I've surrendered all decision making when it comes to this rig. Curious though, how much is a very good price? What MB is it?

    I was thinking oround the range of $175. make me an offer. It is an Asus A7V8X-X. It has a amd 2500+ on it and 2 sticks of 256 and a stick of 128. I think it might not be any good. I replaced it thinking it was bad and when i installed everything my harddrive went bad so im thinking it might just be the hard-drive and not the mb and processor. I'm not garunteeing anything though.

    Thanks bikerboy but mtgoat has already sent out a board in the mail to me. If you want to sell your parts, you could try the DD forum. :)
