Post subject: PC Chips i430FX board |
 |
|
I have PC Chips Socket 7 board with i430FX chipset and UMC UM8663AF Super I/O. It's neither M506 nor M507. There is no COAST slot and no fake cache - but sockets with real cache chips installed. It's V2.1 and there's Winbond Flash ROM chip installed.
Woow - I thought that the Winbond is standard W29EE011 but it's something more interesting - W27F010......so interesting that there's no datasheet anywhere

We might have a M505 there.
I'd like to have a picture of this board (for the lottery) as well as a Bios copy (or at least the Bios-ID string).
Is that possible?
Bye
Thomas

I will scan the board, I can read the BIOS too. The board is dead but the BIOS looks to be OK. Seems that someone tried to repair the board - some components seem to be desoldered and soldered back on (both voltage regulators and one crystal), some traces near cache slots are also repaired. Don't know what is bad (as I don't have an oscilloscope to test the clock signals) but I can say that the regulators are OK and the CPU does not start (no signs of signal changes at BIOS address lines).
BTW.: I have also M918, M715 and M570 - do you want scans? How big should they be? I think that 300dpi is too much

It has green mark on the CPU socket - I know that someone marked bad boards with this...

300dpi is quite ok, yes.
It's sad, that is doesn't work anymore...

What about PC Chips Socket 4 board (Pentium 60/66)?
Socket 4, 4 72-pin SIMM, 4 PCI, 4 ISA, FuGu Tech printed on the chipset, EPROM. Too bad that I don't have CPU

I am still trying to find one of those CPUs too. If I find a working one I'll let you know.

Might be also EEPROM or just an EPROM and mistake on the page (and all the copies)
