Yeah, i don't think it will work without some serious interference with the OS to make 'it' think its an Intel.
I'm also going to look again at agner progy, but not on my beloved Thuban.
I have been into the cupboards and up turned a few boxes that have been accumulating over the years... i pleasantly surprised myself, here is what i manged to throw together...
MOBO: ASRock K10N78, CPU: AMD Athlon x2 5200+ / Cooler: Some unknown top down 4 Heat pipe HS with a red xilence PWM fan
RAM: Hynix DDR2-800, 2x 1GB
HDD: Seagate 250GB ATA
Case: CM Elite 330
An IDE- LG DVD RW.
And a not at all shabby OCZ600SXS2 PSU which looks brand new. it has 4x 18A 12v rails, which is probably why i never used it
I also managed to get 2 GF 8500GT's going but i can't find an SLI bridge
Also, i never kept any IDE cables so i don't have any, so i can't install a Windows OS on it, tho i did find some broken IDE to SATA converters, i might get one going if i'm lucky
Then i can have some fun with this beast
