ok lets see: Writeback buffer corruption when using UDMA on IDE channel 1. SLow memory controller, VIA disabled support for memory banks 7&8 due to stability issues. PCI bus mastering not properly implemented,(try a sblive and you'll see) IRQ allocation issues (bios?) Soft reboot bug which causes …

It WILL fit, but WILL it work? :)....guess you have to try more and more...try using XP or other OSs...we'll see...I just browsed this page, didn't pay much attention to it, not needed it now, no porblems :)... Well, if the radeon works well, it may be some stuff regarding that even the default …

Also forgot to tell that there are som problems regarding the AGP universal slot - not that universal as it seems... Here, you can find more info about it - http://www.playtool.com/pages/agpcompat/agp.html Hope it'll help.

So you didn't installed a fresh copy of the OS - possible problem no. 1 Yes, you may be right that the VGA does not like the mobo - possible problem no. 2

Yep, Elianda's right - the cyrix core is reversed engineering, though I have to browse some of my HW books for the AMD version details...will post later.

Yes, I have found some finally, telling me something that could globalize my demand of this answer - Class 1 MLCC (multilayer ceramic capacitors) DO NOT AGE!!!... And that brings up one more question: What class of capacitors was used in the 486 era? on the mobos I mean. And for instance the EVEREX …

I don't know why this is happening, those blank posts above. Hi all...just a question : What is a typical lifespan of a ceramic capacitor, under perfect conditions, meaning no high temperatures or over/under currents, surges, no nothing, just its length of life. Mean something like this : http:// …

I think it can be a good SCSI adapter as long as you can find the right Eisa config files for it so you can set it up on your board. I prefer SCSI adapters with built in floppy controllers though so you save an ISA/Eisa slot Well see, I'll try to contact some of our customer support or research, as …

Just bought this little guy : http://cgi.ebay.com/199634-001-Compaq-Fast-Wide-SCSI-2-EISA-Controller_W0QQitemZ290363682589QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Computing_ComputerComponents_InterfaceCards?hash=item439b062f1d According to our database here at HP - copy&paste -> Fast-Wide SCSI-2/E Controller - 32-bit …

Prophase has some intentions like me, too ... Not acutually a masterplan, but a simple plan of what kind of HW do I wanna have in possesion. 486s are the best definitely, suits mostly fine for games of all kinds, few little exceptions. VLB really rock for its direct dependancy on the CPU, i.e. the …

Btw, amigaz. After browsing those pictures you posted on the net, on that Everex, what are all of those boards you have plugged in? 😀...quite a number 😀

I would say that the intel would be the slowest here. The reason is, at least I think, that it has the lowest transistor count - AMD version came up later, so that the could have added some more stuff into it. More transistors = more power when overclocking. Cyrix has a certified 486 core from intel …

Hi guys, I'm about to obtain this Everex EV 18210 board and I just want to know if the Dallas chip is socketed or not... Second thing is that EISA cfg file, I would probably need it :) If there is any chance you could post a link that I could download it, or to my message box, I would be grateful... …
