Hi William, welcome aboard.
I'm afraid I don't understand your question properly. Could you expand please?
Lots of people didn't like MVP3 boards in general and the 503+ in particular, but I always loved them. Our three Athlons aside, all our other machines are K6-III+ and VA-503-based. I make no claims to any especially detailed knowledge of them, but if it is likely to help I probably have as much hands-on experience with VA-503 main boards as almost anyone. I have no idea how many 503-based systems and upgrades we sold, but it was certainly over a thousand, and - believe it or not - we still have a few brand new 503s in stock for repairing older systems.

Now that Tannin has opened his big mouth, everyone just sit back and watch him comprehensively fail to answer William's question. If he manages to understand it, that is.

I *AM* the good computer help where I live.
Are you referring to a classical core file such as might be found as a result of a *nix program dying, or more generally to refer to a file containing the contents of memory after a system crash (as is common on Windows machines)?
Microsoft has some crash analysis tools for the latter.
For the former, I'd want to know more before I suggest a course of action. For most people, coredumps of userland stuff are just gibberish. Contents of memory, after all.
So we need more info, if you have anything to add.
