Hey guys,
Please help me get this 486 to work. It was a rare find in my area. It looks so clean too. I've even got the proprietary SRAM Cache module (Original)
I think it might be a jumper problem. I'm happy to place any 486 cpu in ranging from 25MHZ to 133 Mhz - Typically i'd like to put a DX2-66 and around 32mb ram (Which I have) and run Dos on it.
It powers on, the Red motherboard light goes but it doesn't do much more than that. I tried looking online with jumper settings and found a few hits - tried altering accordingly. No avail. Power supply seems good. BIOS and all chips appear firmly seated. Doesn't appear to be any leakage.
Photos attached of various chips etc from my photobucket account.
Please note - hopefully once this is working, I have one more system to revive from dead that does have a bit of leakage and perhaps more discussion about cleaning certain items 😀

Just keep clicking next to go through all 18 photos for reference photos. They have not been edited, and were taken with my phone in fairly low light in my garage. Apologies, it's certainly not a model photoshoot unfortunately.....
I just love how it is so compact.... I don't want to discard of this box. Surely it's something minor......[/b]
