USB Adapter by
Patch
I've got an old motherboard from Epox & I was going to add a USB adapter to
the board, but it has a weird looking pin arrangement. My adapter has a 5
pin plug on the end, but the mobo has a double row of 8 pins. How in the
heck do I get this thing to work? Is there an adapter with an 8 pin plug?

For your price/performance requirements, I would suggest either a

Link to P4 Hyperthreading patch for XP by
Strontium
HT = dual processor technology. Winblows' HAL sees it as 'two'
processors. One virtual, other real. However, disabling HT in CMOS will
allow Winblows to see it as a single processor re HAL. I've noticed a
considerable performance loss, by doing that.

ATA/133 Controller card worth it? by
DVR
Just did some research (I bet many of you wish people would do more research
before posting) and see that the difference will be minimal and not worth
the extra $$$ for a different board or controller.
Thanks
