Mobo Identification and eventual bios upgrade
Posted: Wed Jul 14, 2004 9:57 pm
Hello everyone
I've been searching for a long time what could be my motherboard, but finally I gave up and decided to join this forum, which I hope will be helpful.
Anyway, here's the BIOS Agent 3.30 result:
BIOS Date: 10/10/94
BIOS Type: American Megatrends
BIOS ID: 51-0000-000000-00101111-101094-TRITON
OEM Sign-On: None
Chipset: Intel Triton 430FX rev 1
Superio: Winbond 787 (use 89h) rev 0 found at port 250h
OS: Win95
CPU: P54C 89 MHz
BIOS ROM In Socket: Unknown
BIOS ROM Size: Unknown
Memory Installed: 63 MB
Memory Maximum: Unknown
It is principally the ten 0's in the string that disturb me, I've never found or seen that combination.
Second analyze, this time with Bios Wizard:
Enhanced Disk Drive
Specification : BIOS currently supports this feature
DMI Version : Valid DMI is not found
ACPI Version : ACPI is not found
APM Version : APM BIOS is not installed
Booting From CD-ROM : Unable to test this feature because DMI is not found
Supports ESCD : Unable to test this feature because DMI is not
found
Can be Updated (flashed) : Unable to test this feature because DMI is not
found
Can be Shadowed : Unable to test this feature because DMI is not
found
BIOS Chip in Socket : Unable to test this feature because DMI is not
found
Supports Selective Booting : Unable to test this feature because DMI is not
found
Supports LS-120 Booting : Unable to test this feature because DMI is not
found
Supports ZIP Booting : Unable to test this feature because DMI is not
found
Supports Network Booting : Unable to test this feature because DMI is not
found
BIOS Manufacturer : American Megatrends
BIOS ID : 51-0000-000000-00101111-101094-TRITON
BIOS Date : 10/10/94
BIOS OEM Signon :
BIOS ROM Size : Unknown
Chipset : Intel Triton 430FX rev 1
Super I/O Chip : SMC 665GT rev 2 found at port 3F0h
Well now, If you look at the super I/O chip, you will notice they're not the same in both analyzers...kind of strange, if someone could highlight me on that.
To be sure I will give you a final analyse, this time with CTBios (as stated in the faq):
BIOS-Info, c't/Andreas Stiller, V. 1.5 10/00
Computer ID: FC, SubTyp: 01, BIOS-Level: 0
Rechnertyp: AT-3, Konfigurationsbyte $70

Chipset : TRITON

PnP (ACFG,ESCD,DMI) : PnP V1.0/ESCD
Well, I think I gave you all the info I had.
Oh, one thing, on the mobo itself I located some sort of chip with SMC FDC37C665GT written on it, what would presage the BIOS WIZARD test was the right one, although i'm not sure of it.
A really big thank you if you could help me out.
