Tons of External DVD drives exist. Try finding ones from, hmm, Verbatim? Verbatim is a great company, Asus too, LG...

Update: everything works! All drivers installed, now some time for overclocking... Edit: even the GIGABIT LAN works, on my DS3 it did not work cuz of the s***ty Realtek LAN chip probably being fried, I have heard they did f*** up in 2008 and 2009

Removed it as it was useless. BOARD WORKS!!!! LETS GOO, Just gotta fix my BOOTMGR but its Boot priority disks in BIOS so yeah, ez fix. Finally. I don't have the board's I/O shield but it's fine, atleast makes some passive airflow

Could also be is I just saw in my case a standoff right on the RAM solder parts under the board it was touching them, maybe thats why Slot 1 worked and others didnt cuz it may have been causing shorts?

Exactly, and thanks for confirming it. I use normal drinking water we have, nothing major. And yeah now I will connect everything and test it out (with the X5460). And certainly the AliExpress Chinese BIOSes are weird and fun, but they are like a mix kind of, and overall similar. Welp I will...

I also have to get used to the AMI BIOS. First time using it, for me it was always AWARD! Much simpler, AMI I did use it once on an AsRock 2004 motherboard at my neighbours house but that PC of theirs is thrown out. It was some junk Pentium 4 System anyway

Yooo brooo, I haven't talked to you in a while. I did clean the socket and the dimms, along with the PCI-E (with water, yeah, not so smart of me) but I was able to fix this actually. Now I can finally run my 4 GB of DDR2 1066, I am gonna test it right now, all 4 slots seem to work, and yes there...

NO way now i have somehow been able to boot dual channel LETS GOOO.. IMA TRY ALL 4 RAM SLOTS RN.

Straighetened all, but it doesnt work still. Only slots 1 and 2 work, 3 and 4 don't work yet. I am gonna literally go insane

Got it, I will try straightening them, as careful as i can.

I will also try asking the seller for a refund, now I am back to my DS3 with modded VRM heatsinks (I add thermal pads and heatsinks on VRMs to attempt better OC lolz, I'm too poor 🥀)

Got it, and I will do it right now... I also removed the mobo and I am putting my DS3 back in the case

Yooo Lutfij, haven't heard of you in a while. I reflashed to the newest BIOS (that I modded with correct microcodes and SLIC 2.3 (which is in ACPI and does no harm to the BIOS itself, aka harmless), and I still get major issues)
