 [[https://theretroweb.com/motherboards/s/soltek-sl-b8e-f|The Retro Web]] also has an entry for the motherboard for this system! Along with some BIOS files (though not all of them)
+**Note:** For the Realtek ALC650, if you're running this on WinMe, you want version {{ ::alc650a345.zip |A3.45}} of the drivers, linked here for your convenience. Realtek still offers "9x compatible" drivers straight from their site but they seem to install the VXD variant which makes WinMe angry. I would highly recommend just installing the drivers through the Add/Remove Hardware (point it at the ''WDM'' folder in the linked .zip above) to make sure the proper drivers install.

-**CPU:** I recommend the fastest 800FSB Northwood P4 you can get your hands on. 3.2GHz is probably going to be the most practical here as the 3.4s can be a bit hard to find for a decent price. You CAn also roll Prescott in here but I would advise against it.

 There might be some room for enhancing the cooling, as this runs on a stock socket 478 cooler (and Soltek opted to just use a blower-style cooler to force air out of the case, coupled with the PSU fan), but a Northwood shouldn't cause it to sweat too much.
