SIS chipsets are Intel.Cheesecan wrote:SIS onboard graphics? Haven't heard of those since the late 90s/early 2000s on extreme budget mobos.
In others words get a decent graphics card..or at least Intel onboard graphics next time.

Not everyone can afford speakers. Also, ega and cga + monochrome support plox. I have a 286 that should be able to run spring.
Also, if you're going to get a microatx board, at least have the common courtesy to pay attention to what it has on it.

Basically, if the mobo box says intel anywhere on it, you're doin' it wrong

[f=0000000] insufficient
[f=0000000] (in case you are not using a horribly wrong driver).
[f=0000000] If the game crashes, looks ugly or runs slow, buy a better card!
Why not just return the motherboard to the store you bought it from? Usually they would give you a new one immediately..dcore221 wrote:the reason i have so low specs i sold my graphics card, sound card, ram to help fund a new build and wanted to play some spring wile i wait for my new pc to arrive,
all the parts are here but when i plugged it up and turned it on a mosfet popped on the motherboard
i have messaged gigabyte (no reply yet) , what the chances that gigabyte would repair it?
As a matter of fact I do have a clue about HW. Gee excuse me for making a misstatement about the crappiest chipset maker out there (at least, that's my opinion, but I always stick with nforce, or as a fallback, VIA).Cheesecan wrote: *Facepalm* you have no clue about hardware so don't try to act superior or clever.
SIS chipsets are not Intel chipsets.

It's cruel but I'd say get over it. Get a new one instead of the micro-solder madness. It should be ~80 EUR.dcore221 wrote:think i'm going to try my luck with gigabyte before i attempt to repair it,
with the 8pin connected nothing happens when i power on but if i remove it and just have the 24pin connected the fans spin up and lights come on - think the only part that is damaged is the top right area to power the cpu, cant see any physical damage other than the single mosfet, i believe the power supply is at fault its a 300watt and gigabyte recommends a 500watt,
what is the likelihood that this damaged the cpu?
Buy more ram and a nvidia card =)i have bought a new motherboard but it has no onboard graphics
currently waiting for my graphics card to arive,
how well will spring will play on this system?
Athlon ii x4 640 3.0Ghz
1gb ddr3 1333mhz
Radeon X1950 Pro
should be good enough unlesss the ati card makes problems.dcore221 wrote:how well will spring will play on this system?
