Whats wrong with the Everex? There is no reason it shouldnt work in your PC? Did you choose the correct config? Try testext.exe to see where its RAM is mapped and post a screenshot.

You can also try keyboard controllers from a 386/486, most are compatible but few are not. It also depends on the main BIOS you are using. You need to try, you cannot damage anything.

This looks very generic and it shouldnt be difficult to find a working one. https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=60389 #18 and #37 are very similar to your board. Or try one of the images under #61, I would prefer MR-BIOS. Also some other ICs seems to be missing, cant read the labels on your …

You opened the drive just for checking....??! You know you need a Clean room for that? No comment on that... Very unlikely only the MFM Part of the Controller is not working. MFM is much more complicated to set up compared to IDE.

Try Speedstor for mfm diagnosis. Put the Program on your Boot Floppy and run without the IDE Controller installed. Speedstor will also test the mfm Controller.

I think without pictures of your board/chipset/BIOS screen/disc-controller it will be difficult to help you. I general the XT-IDE can coexist with a MFM-controller. A 1.2 or 1.44 MB floppy should be supported in all 286. GESETUP may not be compatible with your PC. Is there no build in BIOS setup?

I dont think this will work without the 16V8. And the 16V8 needs to be programmed. Look at the traces running from the BIOS jumpers, they connect to the 16V8. It seems to be required to select the adress. Your card was a bad choice for adding the socket. I already did this successfully wit another …

Yes, this dirt is really ugly. Looks like smoke but doesnt smell. Many small traces destroyed under the battery. Scratches mainly on the bottom side. This isnt worth the effort of cleaning and testing...

Can you make a setting in your BIOS? Otherwise I am afraid you need to try. It should be one of the JP10-JP15. The 5-Pin is usually for Keylock. One of the 4-Pin is for the speaker - you should figure out this one first. Connect Pin 1 and 4 to the speaker and listen if you hear a beep after powering …
Re: EGA/CGA card or ?

Hardly surprising. That one is clearly an EGA card. The RCA jacks on EGA cards were typically feature connectors for optional add-ons, not composite video output ports. :-) I noticed I own almost the same one, #12 here https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=76185&p=887911 If yous doesnt post …
Re: EGA/CGA card or ?

This is an EGA card. RCA output isnt connected anywhere until you install something on the feature connector.
