after working on an XP2500+ based system for several days...
i've decided to replace what appears to be a flakey mobo.

i saw a Matsonic KT400 on newegg that looks ok (it's about $50usd)
but i don't know anything about them...
is that one ok? ...if not...what's better?
the computer's owner would have no problems paying more if necessary


The Soltek SL-75FRN2-L is an excellent board. I've built five machines

using
it. nForce2 Ultra 400 chip set. Very stable. Also Soltek's site is easy to
navigate it you need to download drivers or a later BIOS.

As a side-note, if you are into overclocking, my ladyfriend's XP2500+ is
running on a 200Mhz FSB for XP3200+ speeds on one of these boards and is
stable as a rock.

thanks for the reply... that looks like a great board...
the guy who's machine i'm working on finally called me back
(he is out of town) so i gave him all the facts.
now that i;ve told him he needs a new motherboard...he wants one with
an even faster FSB which may call for a P4... ($)
at least the guy is not trying to cheap out...
