so i finally got the last component to set up the dual system...
an MSI pro266LR master...
this thing is so fast and CRISP...
this machine is awesome...
i installed windows XP pro in 8 minutes...with 2x60gb hard's in RAID...and with two 1.4 p3s's @ 1.62 ghz (cas 2) ---took 25 minutes with one 60gb on the 1.62 ghz cel-tual single cpu...
the only thing is the board can't do voltage adjustments on the CPU...thus i can only overclock to 1.62 (154 fsb) with 1.42 (default volts)....i could do the vidpin trick for maybe 50-70 more mhz...
one other drawback...one of the cpu sockets can't fit a vantec aeroflow heat sink...just the stock intel one...that translates into 55C temps (vs 43-44C on the aeroflow socket)...the voltage regulators are right next to one of the sockets...oh well..the temp never goes above 60C (that is a little hot though)
