Hello there,

I have an old Pentium PC Motherboard from which I would like to build a
Mobile Robot. The reason I would like to do this is to use the serial
port, parallel port, hard disk, RAM, USB,etc and build a platform where
I could try out different AI algorithms.

I would like to know how to run a Pentium PC motherboard using
batteries ?

Any help on the above would be great.

Regards,
Rohit


You could get a large uninterruptable power supply like below for
a simple initial setup. Keep it pluged into a light extension
cord for testing, and just unplug it when you want to go moble.
