Few months ago i got a pile of ISA cards and such..

And this controller came with it:

jh820n.jpg

Its an advanced ISA controller card from the year 1992-1993

Its having an bios and it also supports bigger harddisks and have a seperatie connector for an 2.88MB floppy drive..
On the rom sticker is written: Inter Asia Licensing.LTD I guess this is not the manufacturer, but i only think that this company have written this bios..

I like to know more information about it, and somebody who might know the setting from this card.. I really dont like to mess with the settings, if i dont know want they will do.

Do maybe anybody knows that P logo with that arrow beneath it from which company this could be?

On the board serial nummer is written: CA9277B-21

~ At least it can do black and white~

The big chip on the right side says Startech, which is still in business and manufactures (or at least puts their label on) a ton of adapters and expansion type cards.

Main pc: Asus ROG 17. R9 5900HX, RTX 3070m, 16gb ddr4 3200, 1tb NVME.
Retro PC: Soyo P4S Dragon, 3gb ddr 266, 120gb Maxtor, Geforce Fx 5950 Ultra, SB Live! 5.1

looks like PNY

Not even close, not to mention they would have listed the 'N' and 'Y' too...
I'm not even sure they existed when this card was new...

I found a ISA controller card 16-bit that looks like from the same manufacturer:

Then i found this:

The manafacturer should be: RELIALOGIC-CORPORATION-PRIVATE-LTD

Does some maybe knows if this company had a website back in the day? And can somebody remember what their web URL where.
If i know the correct URL i can try to see if something will show up on waybackmachine archive..

Also i found this:
https://companyregister.sg/company/relialogic … -pte-ltd/185471

I guess it was a company from singapore..

because i didnt found more information, iam now trying the jumpers to see what they actually do.. And register them on a self made document..

I dont know what i did, but if i read out the system setting with microsoft diagnostics tool that came with dos.. It says now on IRQ 2 0570:0057 Second 8259A (normally it says cascade)
On IRQ 9 is says F000:EEC7 Redirected to IRQ 2 (detected YES) (handle by bios)

The last i know that if a device made a call on IRQ 9 that it will send to IRQ 2 instead..

But i really dont know what that second 8259A means, and where it is used for.. Somebody any idea?
