IVIYTH0S Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 Doesn't seem like a lot of work for a free or cheap board ..Never underestimate my laziness or ungratefulness. On top of it being an nvidia board...you couldn't pay me to run one of those again (then again if he pays you... that money can be used towards a newer system lol) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm gonna wait and see what else pops up before I bite on that. I've already got another option in the works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ty2010 Posted September 2, 2013 Posted September 2, 2013 There are worse, gave a neighbor a p4 dual core and the ich5 board that came with it a few months back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrewr05 Posted September 6, 2013 Posted September 6, 2013 (edited) So now it seems it is working but my download speeds are terrible and the other night it 'shut off' again and I had to turn off my computer for a couple minutes before it decided to get any connection again. So I'm still thinking the LAN chipset must be kaput. I'm actually debating just buying a PCIe LAN card as I really don't want to take this rig apart.

cchalogamer Posted September 7, 2013 Posted September 7, 2013 Well if you still want a board and aren't too picky I have one of these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128059 I found upstairs last week that I forgot I had. Alternately I have a pile of PCI sound cards and LAN cards (sorry no PCIe) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted September 7, 2013 Posted September 7, 2013 I'll have to see if I still have a LAN card for you in the basement. Probably plain PCI Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrewr05 Posted September 7, 2013 Posted September 7, 2013 We'll see, I may take one of you up on the offer for the LAN card. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 I keep spare PCI LAN cards just for that reason... that or a wifi usb stick....+1 my wifi stick saved me when windows 8 wouldnKt work with my board's lan....then suddenly it worked lol. They come in real handy working on computers too since the generic drivers are always there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
