if you want you can write a little bit about the universal useable bios! you gave me 0.27 & 0.32 of the v5 6k bios. but you found them on your v5 5500 dual vga and you said something about useing 6k-bios on v4-prototypes...


Hmm, I'll look into adding a section mentioning the board bios in one way or another and making note that they may have a "common" base.

Hey Gary,
that external power supply cable was made by a friend of mine, it is completely home made.


A different way to do things, perhaps I'll make one up for a later board and see how it works. Might be easier to do then an internal hookup and more options are always nice to have.

Not every V5 6K sold on ebay is functional.

Even at that, I've seen some non-functional 6000 fetch a pretty good price.

Just wanted to shoot out another thank you to the people who contributed to the V6K FAQ page.

The response from the FalconFly board members by far has been the largest and I could not have done such a complete page without everyones help.

@ Chosen_One I f I were crazy I wouldn't of posted such thing, the Force is some thing I believe in it keeps me going, believeing in God is something I don't do I've had many bad times and God was never there, the Force was in my spirit, it made me think positive about things.

Everyone has thier own opinion of things , so I am not crazy, it's my opinion of explaining that I appreciated Gary's thanx and this place Wink

Been thinking about it, will do so today along with some updated motherboard info and the voodoo volts card too.

As a bonus, in the near future my site will have alternate pages in German, Spanish and perhaps French starting with this page.

a multi language page would also result more visitors Gary, that would be a very good idea Smiley need any help on a dutch part, just send a PM Smiley willing to help out lad.
