Hi!

I'm currently working through a backlog of damaged / unknown / dumped older motherboards and I've came across one that I think might be worth some time to fix up.

Only one small issue: it's missing some chips and I can't find a decent high res picture of the board anywhere to figure out which ones!!!

Attached are some pics, the chips missing are down by the connectors for the front panel. Looks to me like maybe some f245 chips, but if anyone has one of these boards could they please check for me?

Any info helps! 🤣

Thanks,

Chris...

Looked at a cousin, my CA64-EN but it's not close enough, has a 74F245 in that area though.

Unicorn herding operations are proceeding, but all the totes of hens teeth and barrels of rocking horse poop give them plenty of hiding spots.

Ah thank you so much for checking!

It looks like someone borrowed u18, u17, u13 and u21 from this board. Also there might be a resistor or cap missing off of u13 there.

Be nice if they'd brought them back!! 😁
