It's an Intel board (all three of them); this I am sure of. I don't know
the chipset; I guess if I surf around @ Dell I can find out. We don't have
tech specs on the PCs cuz they were put together by a consulting group and
they neglected to pass along the documentation.
I can't even get into the dang BIOS. I boot the things and hit ESC or F1, I
forget which, and it bypasses Dell's lame logo and shows me typical BIOS
crap: "Keyboard detected", "Mouse detected", etc, and claims there's 128MB
of "system memory" (which there should be). But I haven't found the correct
key combo to get into the BIOS and poke around.
hmph. :/

Subject: Re: [SLE] mem vomit
I think this may be related to the motherboard, is it a Intel with an 810
chipset by any chance?
I have had this problem where the amount of memory always shows up by 1Mb
less than is actually installed, e.g. 128Mb shows as 127Mb and 64Mb shows as
63Mb. I think the motherboard must use 1Mb for something, (don't ask me
what) I haven't checked it any further though...
