Cheap Mobo with USB2 & Firewire?

Didn't see any that listed Firewire in the specs, even at the Newegg link. Am I missing it somewhere? Edit: The ECS board looks like a winner with a Firewire PCI card, now to find some reviews!

Cheap Mobo with USB2 & Firewire?

Thanks to all for your suggestions, I'm looking at a Gigabyte GA-8SQ800 board (about $100) since I've had a good experience with my GA-8IEXP. Sure would like to find a similar board for Athlon XP, the price/performance difference is compelling.

Cheap Mobo with USB2 & Firewire?

Can anyone recommend a "low end" mobo with USB2 and Firewire? Won't be used for hard core gaming or RAID, but will use Win98SE, Soundblaster Live, GF3 video, cable modem, DDR ram. No preference on Intel vs. AMD, but would like to stay away from nForce chipsets unless they are stable. TIA!

Gigabyte GA-8IEXP & PC2700 RAM?

Can this be run at stock speed (333MHz) or do i have to either underclock (266MHz) or overclock (354Mhz)? Running P1.6A overclocked at 2.1, Crucial 512MB stick, F6 BIOS, and Win98. TIA!!

There's also a 30/30 version of the self-proclaimed "Wine of the Century" if you want to overclock your innards!

Ripping JUST the audio off a DVD?

I've used a shareware prog called Goldwave to capture it as a WAV, controls are a bit confusing at first but it has great editing and equalization. Make sure you set the recording time to 2 hours if you're doing a live concert so it doesn't get cut short! Also make sure you have plenty of disk...

SB Audigy 1: Can We Use the Audigy 2 drivers? (link)

I've got that crackling sound also, running Win98SE on an Asus P2B-F mobo (1013 BIOS), PIII-450 and 256MB PC133 RAM. I seem to remember a similar problem when the Live cards came out, but I'm too old to remember what the cure was. Help please, my 11 year old daughter is bugging the sh*t out...

FinePix 2600 Price Drop

I agree with FishX, low light situations are bad. Overall opinion is this is a good "digital beginners" camera with quality options that are sufficient for casual use, vacations, etc. You'll definitely need to get a bigger SmartCard if you intend to print pictures, 64MB minimum. Fairly easy...

GA-8IEXP No CTRL+ALT+DEL?

I've got a Codegen 300W PS and standard keyboard, won't soft boot after Windows already up and running. I'll try the new BIOS and see what happens. Is Gigabyte support non-existant, haven't gotten ANY response from them at all. Thanx for the help!
