LPX motherboard booted up by
Ben Myers[_2_]
I cleared away the ATX clutter on my workbench today and booted up the
LPX motherboard I found in another clutter. It is an Intel-made board
with an AST BIOS signature and an Intel 430FX chipset. For those who

dust rather...

LPX motherboard found by
Ben Myers[_2_]
While going through my computer treasures the other day, I came across
an LPX motherboard, the kind used in PB systems. It's a Socket 7 made
by Intel. Not sure what CPU it has, and I'm not sure if it is a PB
original or from some other company like HP or NEC. This one has a VRM
socket on it,...

Synera by
Robert E. Watts
Hi Gang ! ( again )
Picked up a PB Synera the other day. Desktop case.
Pentium 120, blah blah...........
Does the Synera "name" indicate that *used* parts were used in the
construction of these particular line of Packard Bell ?
I remember reading that somewhere I think.

Upgrade to an EasyNote ED1 in the UK by
No Spam
Hi
I'm thinking about upgrading the 2 x 256 Mb RAM 7 the 40 Gb HDD on
this elderly laptop. Nowhere can I find what the motherboard will
take.
Any ideas please?
Also, to replace the HDD will mean the loss of the recovery partition.
As the PB notebooks don't come with the original Windows XP Home...

Robert E. Watts
Hi !
This message is coming to you via the 486 PB Legend 38CD Supreme.
Apparently, this "old" 486 BIOS is pretty sophisticated. I slapped in a 1.6G
IDE drive, and it autodetected it.
For ease of installation of WIN98SE, I put an ATAPI IDE CD-ROM on the
primary channel as a slave, loaded a...

Milano back on the 'net by
Robert E. Watts[_2_]
Hi Gang !
Was looking around the BODADC the other day, and noticed the Milano sitting
forlornly on the shelf. Some of you may remember that last year I
(carefully) fitted the ATX style ( with Packard Bell *looks* ) case with the
latest Intel Pentium III Socket 370 Tualatin board. ( Milano...

WIN98SE question by
Robert E. Watts
Hi Gang !
Has anyone ever had a Packard Bell version of Windows 98 running, and
installed the Windows 98SE upgrade?
I want to know if the Packard Bell logo remains in System Info when you
click on the General Tab.
Please don't answer yes unless you're sure. Takes a while to re-install
Win98 in...
