SY 6BB and PIII possible?
tne...@cs.uah.edu
Hi -
I know that Soyo claims that the SY-6BB motherboard
supports the first-generation of Pentium III CPU (at least up to
550 MHz) on 100 MHz bus. Has anyone out there actually
gotten the 6BB to run stably with a P/III? If so,
please post or email experiences. I'm interested in
which version of the BIOS you used and what size power
supply and what type video card you were able to use.
Is this board stable with P/III as CPU?
Thanks!

Is that the 1.01A6 BIOS, or is a newer one available?
I checked Soyo's web sites in Taiwan, USA, UK, and Germany but didn't
find anything newer than this.

yes, that's the bios version I'm using.
In this newsgroups was a message, that an update will be coming soon (HDD >
32 GB suport), but no answer from Soyo.

it did not start, no video. With the same configuration I replaced the
celeron 466 by a PII 333, and all worked fine. I also installed the
celeron 466 and its adaptor on the computer I have borrowed the PII 333,
and there everything run ok too.
The 6bb is v 1.0 and bios 1a6.
Memory is 64 MB PC100 and I tried with several video cards and allways the
same problem.
Does anybody know which are the celerons 370 that can be used on the 6bb?
Thank you,
Bruno
