| Updating old Chicony MP978 Hi folks, I have a loaded question for you all. Here goes: Chicony MP978, Intel Pentium MMX 233 CPU, 128 MB Memory, I am uable to determine who made the motherboard. I would like to update the motherboard and install a faster CPU and more memory. Is this possible/practical/? Chicony no longer supports their computers, I think they only build keyboards at this time. I have tried to contact the folks at Orphaned Laptops and they don't respond to my e-mails and the website hasn't been updated for the past 6 months. If this is a doable project, where do I start? Thanks for any and all help, Steve      |
