I decided that my "old" motherboard had given up on me. I even tried bringing the clock speed by down to spec (700 Mhz), but nogo.
In the meantime, I've been suffering through Mercs withdrawal and needed to find a fix. The even older P3-500 is rock solid but just not up to snuff for Mercs. I know, I tried.
So, I shelled out some money for a new motherboard, CPU and memory - none of the old stuff worked with today's technology. So, I'm now the proud owner of an ASUS A7N8X motherboard, Athlon XP 2500+ (sorry Arcane) and 512 MB of DDR 2700 set up for dual channel.
Now my only comparisons are against my P3-500 and what I can remember about my P3-700 (@933), but this thing screams. Oh sweetness! Now all I have to do is reload my games, controllers, etc. and I'm back in my Uller again.

Welcome to the new century, even if it is Athlon.

That's just plain MEAN Hip!!! 
It's an Athlon on a dialup that powers that 5 CUAC2 Thor I drive most of the time.
It may not be your Sunder, but it does well enough shootin Ullers! 
BTW good to see you on the Banzai server Saturday night, even if it was only for one drop.

Never argue with an idiot, they will just drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. |

Obake I was just throwing a barb at Aged. You see my Mercs no longer is working either(game freezes in the lobby when I click on a server)and Aged blamed it on EVIL XP.
OK it was mean.Hope to see you soon if I ever get the Dell XPS Gamer gaming.

Good luck Aged. Hope to see you out there soon.
PS. I've got a nice little Solaris Light Match scheduled this Sunday that wouldn't be complete without your Uller.

If I can get this thing running stable in time, I've be happy to shoot at some wolfies.
I figure that's what most bring, right?

Wolfies and Ravens seem to be favorites in the Light class. Though I have seen some rather surprising mech choices of late.
Even saw a Chimera get 5 kills and come in 2nd
