Yeehaw!

Me. Did. Good. Last. Night.

Turned up at Shells with Chinese for tea
Won snooker 3-0
Got all the drivers on the K6/2-400 PC (its currently doing all the Windows Update stuff)
Got one of the motherboard/CPU combos working

Yep. I grabbed the Celeron 600 and checked it out. I was expecting it to be a 100Mhz chip, but it is in fact a 66Mhz chip (x9). So I plugged it into the Soyo SY-7VCM motherboard (after removing the PIII/733), attached the cooler, plugged in my old Kyro II, whacked 256mb of PC133 into it and *WHAM* it booted up. I'll get it all sorted out, cased, etc over the weekend and see what happens.

I also found a great piece of software called HWiNFO. I installed this on the K6/2-400 last night to find out what network and sound cards it had and it did. Without the drivers loaded or anything. Dead handy. I'll be using that again for some of the more esoteric bits of kit I have lying around :)
