Re: AMD "Irongate"

The "Irongate" is another name for the 750/751 chipset. This is an early chipset for the Athlon and should use Socket A instead of Slot A. Perhaps this is what the guy means - that you can't hook it up with a Slot A processor. As far as I know, your 500 MHz is a Socket A CPU and should work out just fine, but please don't hold me responsible if it for some reason shouldn't work out...

Try a search over at
Google with some suitable phrases. That should give you some additional information...

Thanks to Morgan, Tiny Snapshots is up and running again with "Tiny Järvafält" as the latest addition – Go have a look and tell me what you think.

"We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says,
'Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.'
I suppose we all thought that, one way or another.
