I found an old TNT card that was missing it's bios chip. After researching I found the card used an SST-29EE010 - 1mbit eeprom. Using a new eeprom I have downloaded and burned all the original TNT bios images I can find from places like VgaMuseum. Most fail to boot but some of the images will get to the POST screen and then freeze.
This is an image of the card.

I think the card is an ' A-Trend 1290A' . The chip under the heatsink is the original TNT but info is really thin on the ground about this card.
If someone has this card could you dump the bios with Uniflash1.4 or NSSI and attach it.
