www.tomshardware.com does a review on it if you are interested, thats the best i could do, that it is fcpga, did you want slotted processor? if so, tyan makes a board then
this is the only board i could find with 4 ide channels
Soyo SY-6BA+ IV http://iceberg.pchomeworld.com/cgi-w...p?Part=MB66543
this is a great m/b search utility

Abit makes one that's perfect for FCPGA: THe VP6 has everything but the ISA.

check out www.computershopper.com
they have all the latest hardware listings and will also list them on one site rather you jumping around sites back and forth.
i'll look around for you some too.
i think drewber means 2 EIDE channels not 4 IDE channels, try searching for thatQuote:

Hard to say for sure..he said 4 controllers, and a few Apollo Duals have twin 100 and twin 33/66 controllers. (MSI694D) But I'd don't know of any new duals still carrying ISA slots....time to fork out the bucks for a PCI network card? https://forums.windrivers.com/
How is it that in a "Tech-to-Tech" forum, we have been transformed into human search engines? How is it that an individual is able to find Windrivers, register, and post a topic, but is unable to access a simple search engine to find readily available information?
Sorry for the rant, but laziness really cheeses me off. It would have been different if he'd asked for recommendations, but just to get other people to do research that he himself could do is just ridiculous.

I think the fact that the question is posed in this forum is to get recommendations from experienced technicians i don't necessarily consider it lazy. I mean reading a bunch of reviews serves its purpose but i think he wanted info on what we have used ourselves.
