To try to prevent used sales. Most motherboard sales would be just the board; no wires or documentation. Without the manual to tell them how to boot, most purchasers will think they were scammed and return the board.

First clear CMOS (using just the jumper is fine). Then try firing the board up with just this one DIMM in this slot, and it should fire up. Afterwards, the board can accept two DIMMs.

Sweet, just picked up a naked 3700 Sandy and took it quickly up to 2.9Ghz @1.6V. It did load to 50°C, but I figure once I get WC set up Ill easily be able to push it higher. Looks like I'll be having fun with this chip.

I am surrounded by a club of perverts! Everything I see is "naked" this and "topless" that. Bah.

Speaking of perverts, where is Pioneer?

No worries! I'm here! I need to get me a naked Sandy now...that sounds like a good time

.

And the corn dogs and burritos incident....aw that was BAAAADD!!! We went to the movies to see "You Don't Mess with the Zohan" featuring Adam Sandler. Well about an hour into it, my stomach was hurting so bad we were FORCED to come home by yours truly

. I came home, made poopy, then fell right asleep. Then I had to work all day today, and I just now got home to about 20 something pages of missed posts that I had to make up in here!

To all officers:
I will be at work through Tuesday. That means Wednesday is my next day off. So if we are to have our meeting on any of those days, it'd HAVE to be after 9pm PST for me. Figured I'd let y'all know.

PS:
If you catch some funny words in my post....I'm TRYING to keep it somewhat PG-13 rated
