The PS/2 stoped after flash 4.00 bios? My 4DPS mouse and Floppy does not work with this bios version. Even making sure that PS/2 is enabled using a bios editor software.

Bought a motherboard identical to the one in this topic: Re: ALI Socket 3 486 Motherboards At first, thought it was a Abit PB4 😜 Well, I cant find the manual for this board. Does some one known something about this motherboard? I need the jumper settings.

And the current exchange rate is around 1 US Dollar = 4 Brazillian Real, some months ago it was around 1 US Dollar = 2 Brazillian Real. So currently everything from outside will be much more expensive.

I got for cheap a ECS DI 602 Multi I/O VLB Board like this https://th99.bl4ckb0x.de/c/E-H/20356.htm There are some scratchs on back side (but no bad traces) and looks like all caps were removed :( I would like to resolder the removed caps, but could'nt find any picture of this board. Probably they …

Two maxtors (129MB and 540 MB) both working without clicks, windows 3.11 installed. Not checked for badblocks yet. Looks like both came from an IBM aptiva. Diamond Voodoo 2 ! Intel DX2 66 and 8MB FPM (not in the picture) Only 25 reais , about $8,00 😀

TL866 would be my choice, it's cheap, it's usb and compatible with a lot of chips, but you will need some adapters. Actually i have a old Willem Programmer, it's is very outdated but works ok.

I would keep this board for benchmarking and testing only (rare chipset). For a SS7 rig, would use something more reliable.

At least you didn't get a version of that mobo with fake cache. As ODwilly said, that's one of the few examples of a decent PC Chips board.

in general , i hate pcchips. But this board is interesting, it comes with the somewhat uncommon mvp4, a upgraded version of the famous mvp3. Mvp4 was a very late socket7 chipset (like alladin 7) and was adopted on very few motherboards. Like ODwilly said, take a look at the caps, pcchips uses poor …

Maybe a relabeled chipset, but Efar was a true chipset manufacturer in the age of 386 chipset.

Unusual 486 Chipset?
Posted on 2015-07-20, 13:58
I got, next to free, a 486 motherboard made by Mitac (actualy Tyan), model IH4077D. I thought it was a simple vlb board, but i never heard about the Efar EC802 chipset. Does someone here had ever seen this board?
