I don't know, but if you are going to do that, you must know more about computers than me because I've never heard of anyone doing that.

We are currently trying to connect two old computers together, some parts do not work. What we basically want is to have the upgraded motherboard use the other one as a port holder.

If you have to ask that question, perhaps you should read a little bit more on the subject before doing it.

Why would you want to have two motherboards anyway?

How else could I connect the eight graphics cards I've already bought?

Okay this is what you do. You put your two mother boards and a hair blower in a bath tub and you sit in it for 5 minutes and wa la you got two motherboards working.

(I'm kidding don't actually do that. )

You could tidy it up a tad like this:

I'm a bit confused. How are you connecting two motherboards?

Okay so it kind of works. I can get to the RAM but not the HDD on the other mother board... Any suggestions?
