confuzzedintelguy Posted October 5, 2004 Posted October 5, 2004 first i would see if you can put some 400mhz zeons in it which you should be able to and goto ebay and git some thin i would find a OLD version of red hat and slap that on there Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

confuzzedintelguy Posted October 5, 2004 Posted October 5, 2004 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...6712109626&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...6712109630&rd=1 just google the brand and model number for specs and you should be able to find out i would think that it would be able to take xeons most servers do but above are 2 400mhz xeons with 512k cache and 100fsb which is good for a p2 also when you look for the specs see if it can take some P3's Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
