Hello,
I have huge problem with setting up old 486 PC. It turns on but I can't install WIN95 beacouse of errors and hangouts. The most of them are divided by zero or SUWIN errors. I change RAM moduls and it propably help with the first one but still hanging and SUWIN shows.
Specifications:
Motherboard: DTK PKM0038S (SiS 85C471/ 85C407)
CPU: i486DX4 &E 100MHZ
I/O controller: VESA Super IO Card (GoldStar Prime 2C/ GM82C711)
HDD: Conner CFS425A 425MB no bad sectors
VGA: Cirrus Logic GD5429 VL Bus
RAM: 72 SIMM 2x 8MB double side Micron FPM 60ns and /or 2x 8MB DS Alliance FPM 60ns
Samsung Floppy Disk
Acer CD-ROM Drive
Win95 OSR2.1+USB
Other pats:
another VGA Cirrus Logic ISA GD5401
another IO card ISA KWE557A
another 72 SIMM 1x4MB 60ns and 1x4MB 70ns moduls
another HDD Seagate ATAII 10,2GB limited to 2.1GB
My battle:
1. changing IO card, HDD, RAM, VGA with no effect (except divided by zero)
2. Install from hard drive (copying WIN95 folder) and from CDROM with no effect
3. setting different BIOS options combination and maybe here is the problem?
My observations:
1. Sometimes VLB IO card cant go thrue POST with no fail, then i change to ISA. It looks like some VL bus problem?
2. I have only one WIN95 disc, maybe try with another version?
3. How to set BIOS in case 2 VLB cards? what is Latch local BUS?
Thank you for any answer.
