So I bought a mb 1325/33vt on ebay earlier this week. I had a 386 awhile ago, but it had its own set of troubles. (blown capacitors, dead fdc, not seeing memory, ect.) So I have a few questions about getting one of these working correctly (or with few issues as possible)
First problem for me is the ram. I was able to find only 3x256 sticks, and the memory configurations for the board are all in 4 sets on 2 banks. Will it even boot with 2-3?
Second, is controller card compatibility. Is it plug and play, or are there extra steps to it?
Lastly, is a amd 386dx40 compatible with any 386 board or are there cpu restrictions set by the manufacturer?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
