This site has been developed because of a need, noted on the Newsgroups, of users who
were unable to identify the manufacturers of their equipment. They know they can get
something better out of their equipment but didn't know where to look and also in some
cases what to do.
I do not apologize for the bias you will notice I have towards Intel motherboards - my
philosophy is simple - if one manufacturer makes the processor, pci chipset and
motherboard, surely the compatability between these items should be extremely high! Don't
get me wrong - I am not wanting a "two company world" - but I find my philosophy
works for me and you are entitled and encouraged to follow your own. In fact I would
welcome contributions from those of you who have experience with upgrading and installing
different motherboards and BIOS's - (where they come from, their WWW address, how they are
upgraded, any tips, any traps to watch out for, etc. - Email me)
The reason for the name, House of Hall, is that it is the name I trade under locally. The
company is a registered Intel Product Integrator (IPI) (No.17818) and Microsoft OEM
Partner (No.870) and we assemble and maintain computers and networks under our own banner
in South Africa. I, Glyn Hall, have been in the computer industry since the mid 1970's and
have worked with many different manufacturers in that time. I have always preferred the
'nuts and bolts' side of the industry and am still heavily involved in it. I am fairly
active in Intel's Motherboard Newsgroups,
helping where I can and am open to assist anyone, anywhere at anytime if I can - that is
my nature.
