The datasheet refers to much older system architecture than the BX board you have. Also never seen Soyo use weird stuff like this. I'd expect it to use some regular Atmel/Winbond chip. Quite possibly the odd architecture of the EEPROM is the problem, the reason why the existing one failed. Once …

Try and see. You already 'bricked' the system, so you don't exactly have much to lose. No luck? Grab any other suitably-sized EEPROM (2Mb by the look of it) and use that instead. I think it might be hard to find a suitable replacement which is pin compatible and has the same functionality. The chip …

Hello! AwardBIOS Flash Utility froze around mid-way. Waited 30 min or so but no luck.. :-( The motherboard is a Soyo SY-6KBE. Anyone know of a way to externally flash this BIOS chip? I had a look at the TL866II compatibility list but could not find an exact match. Chip: P28F002BC-T120, datasheet …

Yep, as per the lower part of the diagram. @guzzard the software on the Linux side isn't in my repertoire, but as far as sidestepping SoftMPU and using the gameport for GM, those bits of hardware are the way to go. Thanks! Will order some parts and cables and test. Saw a nice board designed by …

Hello! I'm new here, sorry if I post a question that has already been answered. I searched both Vogons and the internet but cannot find the answer. I setup SoftMPU on my 486 and Munt on my Linux computer to emulate MT-32 with Munt through a serial cable and that works really great, no issues. …
