Hello! Can you provide a BIOS dump of this mainboard? My BIOS EPROM stopped working and now board is dead.

That is a posting from 5 years ago. Usually the mods will not be happy when you necro a thread. However if the owner dumps a bios, we from UH19 will be happy too:

As we lack that one so far.

Okay, so opening a new thread is prefered over continuing the latest thread about this board? But thanks for you support.Thumbs up.

Yes, unless you add information to the thread that was not known before.

You're welcome, we all have to learn. I know I did 😀

There were few versions of this FIC board, some had VLB slots, some didn't, but they all used the same VIA chipset, check this BIOS image, it should fit your board just fine.

I have a slightly different version (IIRC) of this board and it isn't as slow as mentioned here. I've just dug up a few benchmarking results of it, obtained with the following specs: intel SX33 MHz, WD90C30 ISA video, 4MB RAM, 256KB L2.

superscape 3dbench 1.0 - 23.2 FPS;
cachechk - L2 cache throughtput - 31.0 MB/s, main memory - 17.8 MB/s;
doom 2 - timedemo 2, high detail, hud on, no sound - 13.9 FPS (2001 gametics in 5034 realtics).

Personally, I don't see why necroposting in the old hardware section is a bad thing, technically, there is no end to discussion when it comes to the timeless hardware, something new can always be added to the thread, unlike in some software section posts, where, for e.g., people bring up posts with software issues that were fixed long time ago with newer releases, now that's a paddlin' 😀

Hello,
I managed to create a dump of BIOS file, because EPROM wasnt dead as 1st expected. It is quite different from the one you posted.
But I still dont get a POST. Maybe someone discovers a problem right away from JPEG (Its not the missing capacitors, I am currently renewing them)? I also added BIOS dump.

Re: 80486 BIOS image collection

Thanks for helping.

This board won't emit any error beeps (with AMI BIOS) if there is going to be faulty RAM in BANK0. Test MB first with known good/compatible SIMM modules and if it'll still fail to POST, make a thorough visual inspection in the SIMM slots area.
