    Default Anyone here ever use an Upgradeware Slot-t slot 1 adapter?

    Greetings 16-bitters, A few days back I got an Upgradeware "Slot_T" slot 1 cpu adapter off of ebay, complete with a Celeron 1.3 Ghz socket 370 cpu! Problem is, I can't seem to find any info on what the onboard jumpers should be set at. Now this adapter does not have it's own voltage regulator, so I don't have to worry about that as I'll be setting the voltage in My mobo's BIOS, But I will need to know what to set the jumpers to for the right FSB.

    I bought this so I could beef up My 98se computer. The current mobo uses those goofy slot 1 cpus, which limits My upgrade choices.

    CPU:
    Intel Celeron: 1300 Mhz, 256k L@ Cache, 100 Mhz FSB, 1.5 Volts, SL6C7, Socket 370.

    Motherboard:
    Asus P2B-F







    Any help would be appreciated. Especially since this should be more then enough juice to get rid of the lag in those damned underground missions in Mechwarrior 3!

    jumper settings should be printed on the back of the PCB.

    Negatory, Duders. The back of both the plastic cartridge casing and the PCB are both bare:

    That's actually where I've been getting a lot of My upgrade info from, and although He recommends using the slot-t, he doesn't give any exact info on the slot-t itself, probably also assuming that the user has a diagram with their adapter that shows Them how to set it up.
    I might just update the bios, set the board to the known required settings, and just pop the thing in and see what happens. I just don't want to risk blowing the little SOB.

    Hey fatboy, perhaps you can follow the traces and find out what pins they go to in order to determine what the jumpers do.

    You can find a pinout and a list of what the pins do on this document:

    see page 57.

    Damn Nonameo, that's some great info! I might still just plop the thing right into My rig and see if it posts, mostly because I'm a stingy bastard who doesn't want to waste all that lovely Arctic Silver 5 I already used on it (I don't want to take a DMM to the sloket and do a continuity test on it while the cpu is still plugged in), But if that fails, this may just point Me in the right direction. Thanks!

    The upgradeware SlotT is a waste of money. P2B-F is known for working with tualatins with few simple mods on a regular slot-adapter, most common with are the solutions from asus (super370 or something) and MSI (MS6509 master).

    However, I do like i440BX systems with tualatins. Pop in a RAID card to bypass shitty UDMA/66 and you, sir, got one great system.
