I have an old SoYo KT400 Dragon Ultra Platinum and am trying to pump some new life into it as a Linux (Fedora) server. Some statistics: Bios - Award 6.00PC System/Bios version - K7VX4-2AA3 CPU - AMD Athlon XP1500+ Mem - 500MB of DDR333 Stress - None (no overclock, etc) All except 3 items seem OK - I am able to boot and run Fedora 3 and am going to Fedora 12 soon but would like to solve these before I upgrade the OS. The three are: 1. The boot displays a "CMOS Checksum error - Defaults loaded" message. How to fix this? 2. The Northbridge 40MM fan howled like a banshee and ran slow before I cleaned it (now a slow running baby banshee). Do I need that fan? 3. My biggest problem is a lack of soft off. My OS sends the shutdown command and there is a click heard from the box but the video feed, fans, etc, continue to run. I enabled soft off in the Bios along with no time delays in other Bios choices. How to fix this? I no longer have the SoYo manual. Help! Dave
