Shuttle MN31N board revisions

[bidzina]

Just thinking to buy Shuttle MN31N board and wanted to get a latest revision of this board. Anybody has bought recently this board? Which revisions you got? Where?

Would appreciate your information.

Thanks

I just installed one of these boards. It went real well except that you do need a P4 power supply with the 4 pin 12 volt connector. That was a bit of a surprise. After replacing the power supply the board just booted right up with no issues. I cannot remember the version and I am at work. I got mine from Newegg last week. It has 2 VGA ports as you probably know and I was playing with the NVidia NView feature. Its sort of cool. I will try to get the version Saturday but I really don't want to open up the box.

Toddly,

Thanks for sharing your experience. Did it come with Firewire bracket? or just USB and com port brackets?

Did it boot without P4 power supply at all?

bidzina,
It did come with the Firewire, USB and COM brackets but it would not boot without the P4 power supply. Nothing, zilch not even a beep. I was fortunate to have one in another computer which I switched with, then it fired right up. Had me stumped at first and then I went and looked at the manual. Can't say much about the sound since I put in a Santa Cruz sound card.
