    [SOLVED] Can I replace a MCZ Capacitor with a non-MCZ capacitor of the same values on my motherboard?

    I bought some capacitors of the same values as the one I need to replace (it is dented) but I noticed the original capacitor is a MCZ capacitor. Will my non-MCZ capacitor be adequate for a replacement? Thank You.

It turns out the USB has a SIM card in it. I found the product information page. How do I get this thing to work? They go for about $50 on...

    Question Is there a Socket 478 MOBO with 800mhz FSB, 4 GB of RAM, and PCIe?

    Thank you! I had looked at that page but assumed since there was only 2 RAM slots it was a max of 2 GB. it is actually 4! I will check this one out. This is the ultimate processor I could get. Intel's search says it has X Disable Bit, but then you click on the page and it says it doesn't...

    Question Is there a Socket 478 MOBO with 800mhz FSB, 4 GB of RAM, and PCIe?

    Right now I have a SL7E5 (800FSB) and a SL7E2 (533FSB.) I am not sure from the look of this Intel page but since I have the 478 version of the SL7E5 does it not have the Execute Disable Bit? Theoretically both of these processors could. There is also the question of support for 64 bit, which...

    Question Is there a Socket 478 MOBO with 800mhz FSB, 4 GB of RAM, and PCIe?
