Title: Suggest a motherboard for me
Post by: keilmillerjr on March 10, 2019, 06:00:10 pm
3 years ago I assembled a new computer for use with my k7000 and groovymame. Loaded windows, setup attractmode, and that’s about all the time it had seen. Been programming layouts/modules/plugins for attractmode since. Finally about done and wanting to go with GroovyArcade and my finished layout... motherboard isn’t working. Disconnected video card and disks, bought a mb speaker. Ram is fine. Tested voltage on psu and is fine. No video signal from any port on motherboard. I only had a few hours run time on it. :(

Can anyone recommend a replacement? Perhaps one that does bios or UEFI is known to work with 640x480 so I can use atom modified video card bios?

ASUS P8H61-I R2.0 LGA 1155 Intel H61 HDMI USB 3.0 Mini ITX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS

Thank you!

I was going to recommend an ASUS but it seems the one that died was an ASUS too?

I remind Haynor666 had one Asrock which bios was ATOM-15 friendly.

I have that same Asus board in my cabinet. When boot logo is enabled and using an ATOM-15 flashed card, the boot is 100% silent which is nice. Been stable for me for a few months of heavy use now. Would recommend just getting another if you are happy to stay with 1155.

I have Asus motherboard which is still fine with G3258 4,2 GHz.
