Greetings i have two P-III motherboards
i want you to help me from your knowladge to choose the best between the two...

the First motherboard is:
Manufacturer: Intel Corporations.
Model: Intel's CA810 AA744854-442
Chipset: Intel i810 rev.A2
Southbridge: Intel 82801AA (ICH)

the Seconds is:
Manufacturer: Acer Laboratories Inc.
Model: ALi 1631
Chipset: ALI Alladin Pro II Rev.4
South Bridge: ALI M1533

I basicly have an idea which one is better...
the Second is supporting a higher technologies and CPU's...
But i've installed a Pentium III 866/256/133 V1.65 CPU and i see only 433 Mhz!!!
How can i change it???

You have to check if the clock multiplier is correctly set on the motherboard setup, which I don't think it is the case. Also, a BIOS upgrade would be good. Check this article:

BTW: maybe the motherboard manufacturer isn't Acer (it is the chipset manufacturer). Thus, you will need to find out the motherboard manufacturer first (instructions on the above article).

Well eventually i found a Manual for the Mobo of mine and Changed the Jumper setting for the FSB to 133 (they were on 66)
And it's working fine now.

Btw my Mobo is: M754Lv1x (http://www.pcchips.com.tw/PCCWeb/Downloads/ProductsDetail_Download.aspx?DetailID=47&DetailName=Driver&DetailDESC=M754L(V1.x)&MenuID=0&LanID=0) type.
I hope you'll help me find additional information for this Model.

/edit
BTW: thank you for your Articles, they were a Great Help. :)
Keep up the Good work.

Your motherboard was manufactured by PCChips. You can download its manual and BIOS at:

thanks, i got the Manual (it helped alot)
But the problem was that the Mobo isn't identifying any PCI Cards i've inserted, the BIOS refused to start!
i tried replacing the PCI slot, and it didn't helped.
Anyway after waisting a whole day tried to revive the Mobo, it worked but didn't accepted any PCI Card
Tried two Microsoft's Products. WinXp/Windows 2003 Server.
I wanted this Mobo to Act as a File and internet Sharing Server.

BTW i followed your Article about Explosive MotheBoards (http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article.php?id=48), and identified the swallowed capacitors.
But didn't had the change replacing it.
