Dear Vogoners,
For a few weeks I received a mainboard with a strange layout for the cachesockets.
I attached a few photo's below, watch the keying of the socket in the corner of the motherboard.
The last socket in the row with 5 cacheships (in the corner of the motherboard) is flipped/180degrees turned.
My question is; how can I check if the orientation of the socket that is flipped is correct?
Is it possible to check this with my multimeter on certain legs of the socket?
This because I want to prevent frying the board of my cache chips trying to get this motherboard alive again.
Second question is: The odin RTC module seems to be dead flat. What pins do I need to connect a battery holder to to reactivate the unit?
I know there is a thread about it but sofar I found 20 topics with people that either designed replacements or simply did mod their RTC..
