Nevermind the 24 (A11) then, I think it's only used for 16MB simms and the board doesn't support those, so it's likely there is no trace whatsoever.
On the backside photo of the board I see pin 19 (A10) is linked for four slots, but seperate and linked for the other four slots.The datasheet for the 74f86n tells us pin 3 is an
inputoutput for an XORorgate.It should be connected somewhere else as well.Since 1MB simms are working, try to figure out where pin 18 (A9) from the simm slots goes to.
It's also possible it goes to multiple locations, so if you find one continuity, keep looking for a possible other location.GigAHerZ, thanks for the input. Always good to have another pov.
edit: the other bank is connected to pin 6 of the 74f86n, which is also an output for an XOR
orgate.
pin 1 & 2 are the inputs for pin3, pin 4 & 5 are the inputs for pin 6
It could be that the chip 74f86 is defective, or that a trace of its input is broken somewhere.
Pin 18 goes to U21 (74F244N), 5th pin from left and below. Didn't find any other traces....
