My second eBay find came!
As you probably know, my first find was the IBM/Cyrix build I described two pages ago, which has a dying Quantum Bigfoot in it. Well, this one came.
It's in a really cool AT style case WITH a front mounted AT keyboard port, hooked up to an 8 bit card inside. It doesn't seem to work right now though 🙁
Specs:
Intel 80386DX @ 33 MHz WITH Cyrix FastMath copro
ATi VGA Wonder XL, 1 MB VRAM
32KB L2 Cache, 8 MB memory on a fullwidth Asus memory board (8 x 1 MB 30pin SIMMs)
Asus Cache386/33 motherboard
NO hard drive
Teac 5.25 Floppy drive, Toshiba 3.5 floppy drive
3com Etherlink III ISA network card
Generic 200watt AT PSU
A good restoration project, I'll have fun with this one 🤣
Notes:
Missing side panel.
Front mounted keyboard port doesn't seem to work, after hooking it up something weird happened and now I can't access the BIOS after it reports a dead CMOS battery, it just shows a blinking cursor and even the back keyboard port does the same thing. *Edit, the keyboard's still detected, it just hangs for some reason.
Motherboard uses a 3.6volt external battery, so no barrel corrosion! 😁
Has a sticker, "Government Property," on it. Evidently came from the University of New Mexico.
5.25 floppy drive had a disk in it. Original label was the first program diskette for a program called ANVIL-5000. Was written over with the label "Backup for Mike and John's Programs."
