The official P2XBL motherboard discussion thread.

I've attached the manual of this mainboard for future reference.

[Mr.Scott]

Pretty old stuff. Any difference between this board and my P2B?

[Massman]

All I can think of is the 133/33.24 FSB/PCI divider

[Mr.Scott]

Cool. Subscribed then.....for educational purposes. Thanks....another project to set up and bench.

Why not Asus P3B-F or Abit BE6-II?

[Mr.Scott]

Why not Asus P3B-F or Abit BE6-II?

"Cause I don't have either of those. lol

[Antinomy]

They are easier to get than the DFI one

[Massman]

Quite frankly, I bought this board A LOOONG time ago and when I tried to boot, it looked dead. Today I went up to the attic to find an SDRAM board and it's just the one that I took with me downstairs. It's the first time I get it to boot actually.

 

[Antinomy]

Ah, don't feed it with crappy memory, it's 440BX. I've got a MSI 6163 at work that won't boot with new Samsung memory that is PC133 3-3-3 - the board knows it's a crap. I think my P3B-F won't boot either.

[Massman]

Just realised that this board does not have voltage adjustments.

 

Fail.

[Antinomy]

And you don't have a soldering iron neither?

read my sig

[Massman]

Well, yes I have. But it's more effort

[Antinomy]

Lazy panda

[CryWin]

I have a P2XLX

[Christian Ney]

FYI : I have got some P2B-DS and P2B-D and they won't boot with PC133, but only with PC100. Sometimes they reached to boot with PC133.
