| 166213 | 2003-08-08 03:03:00 | I have an ABIT KG7 motherboard coming to replace an existing faulty one. The ABIT takes 184 pin DDR PC1600/PC2100 SDRAM. I have plenty of what I will call ordinary SDRAM, what is the difference, can I use my existing SDRAM initially just to get things running or is it totally different. I seem to recall that the SDRAM was 168 pin and if that is correct then, well - I have answered my own question, damit :-) With regards to the hard drive, is there anything I need to do to use my existing drive with the new motherboard? System Win ME, 512 Mb SDRAM, 20 gig Maxtor 7200RPM and 1.2 gig Athlon |

| 166215 | 2003-08-08 03:46:00 | If the Motherboard ( New ) is different to the old motherboard then you will have to load the chipset drivers into your WinMe installation. | Elephant (599) | ||
| 166216 | 2003-08-08 05:35:00 | with the new motherboard you will need to remove the old motherboard drivers and install the new ones EVEN IF THE MOBO'S ARE SIMILEAR. there is also a possibility of needing a windows reinstall. | tweak'e (174) | ||
