Hi,
This is the motherboard for my 386 PC - http://stason.org/TULARC/pc/motherboards/D/DE … ml#.UcCVOD60Nz0
I was wondering in regards to the "Proprietary cache card/shunt card
JCACHE" and VGA ram memory slots.
The cache slot has just a blank circuit board in it with no chips on which I guess is just there to bridge a circuit. The machine won't boot without it. Should I look to add some cache memory in here? Does something like this look like the right thing? The connector seems to match.. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/256Kb-Cache-Memory- … =item4173fb86ca
Also, is it worth me adding some VGA memory chips? The upgrade slots are currently empty so i've got 256KB VGA memory to work with.
Just curious if there's anything I can do now that it's likely I can source these parts for cheap.. I know the FPU is a pointless upgrade so i'll skip that 😀
Thanks!
