The performance and install are great but the sound audio portion does not work and its not worth the effort of removing the board to get a replacement. They should burn in before shipping.


Exactly what I was looking for.

I bought this board to replace a dead mobo and resurrect a 1994 T2825 Emachines tower that I really like. This PCCHIPS board is a very good match, size and feature wise, to the old board. It needed a heatsink for the CPU. My old RAM was compatible. I had to run the drivers disk three times to get everything to work, but it's up and running. My only concern was the SIS965L IC that didn't have a heat sink was running hot. I suspect that's what killed the Emachines mobo, so I installed a sink on that chip and put a fan in the rear of the tower. Now everything runs cool. I'm very pleased with this purchase!

First three attempts at booting it couldnt even get to the POST screen, just a black screen, fans spinning etc. Turned it off reseated the RAM and got it to boot after the fourth attempt. Everything works fine now and it works great as a file server. I went with 1gb of ddr 333 even though stamped on the motherboard it says ddr400 when the manual says its compatible with ddr333 and 266 only. I am happy with my purchase.
