i think it is AT, but not entirely sure! i will take a look at that site
though.
you are maybe right with your suggestion that AT boards have the larger
keyboard socket, as I have this type of socket, and the mouse is connected
to a serial port, not that ps/2 port that my other computer has it connected
to.
also, the processor is located to the right of the card slots, not like an
ATX board, as the processor cannot fit to the right of the cards, and has to
be placed above the card slots.

can someone please tell me alsowhat ram i have! i think it is DIMM, but im
not 100% sure! well, there are 2 types of slot, there is one 64MB block in
there now, which must mean that it is 72 pin, or 160?? pin???? as the 32
pins have to be in sets of 2?? there are 4 slots, 2 different types, one set
of smaller ones, and one set of longer ones (the longer has the block of ram
it at the moment).
what i basically want to know is the arrangements you have to have ram in,
as i have heard that some ram has to be paired with other ram in order for
it to have 64 bit communication or something?

thanks a lot
