Well, I attempted a K6-3+ chip in a v2.1 of the MSI 5169. While it appears to work to some degree, I've never gotten them to run satisfactorily without a BIOS upgrade. It's obviously not running correctly and finally gets to the point where it will not boot up. I may give it another shot if people i...

Well, the MSI 5169 boots into windows but it is obvious some settings aren't right. Any suggestions on what to try? Also, got message graphics adaptor incompatible with hardware. It does not like the Voodoo3. Any thoughts?

Will give it a try!

Review of utilities when no BIOS update for -plus chip

I'd like to tap the experts here at K6 Plus on what are the best utilities to use in your great experience, when there is no BIOS update for the mobo? I have my own preferences but maybe someone knows something more, and likely, I've forgot a few things!

SIS6326 is okay but suffers compatibility problems. If it works, it generally works fairly well. But, I've found where in many older systems, it will not work!

K6PLus has been a roaring success!

K6Plus has been a success by any standard. You've got a small but faithful core of followers. The site has made progress and is quite presentable. It's not perfect, but that gives you something to work for! Mr T is far too hard on himself and others. Yeah, as Socket 7 recedes futher in the rearview ...

How about a name revision?

Maybe a slight revision of name is in order? Perhaps, K6Plus and Beyond? <p></p><i></i>

Ditto, echo georgep

Sorry, I don't make it to this forum much. You guys got to forgive me, but I've only got dialup and I spend time on a website of my own. I don't get around to forums much. But, I relate to your site as well anyone's. K6 Plus is high up on my favorites list! <p></p><i></i>

Good points

Yeah, you've made some sharp points in this thread, but there are many more perpetual tightwads out there than you can imagine. They are not hardware enthusiasts to say the least! <p></p><i></i>

Worried about Revhead, have you heard from him?
