Good question. I dont think there is a way to dump the keyboard bios? And also no way to reprogram such chip? I have read somewhere that Award and Phoenix are not interchangable. But currently my Phoenix Board is running fine with a Award Bios and the original keyboard bios installed. So a Award …

Yes, IDE is standard and you can use all IDE-drives on a soundcard. Best solution if you dont have a spare drive bay: Buy a SCSI Adapter and use an external SCSI CD-ROM.

Um, I don't mean to be ignorant or rude or something like that, but what's the matter with flash memory (why no EPROM) ? A few notable exceptions aside, I've rarely had serious trouble with classic UV-EPROMs so far. :confused: Dont know, because you need an additional UV Eraser? Indeed ;-) And dont …

Most likely the left 2 Pins. Run a Program that Displays the speed in real time like Norton Sysinfo and shorten it...you will see. If not shorten 1+3.

Thanks Jesolo! The other missing part is labled "FB13". This does not seem to be a capacitor but a Ferrite bead? Maybe I can desolder a one that looks the same like FB12. But dont know how to figure out the characteristics, have to google. And my multimeter can only measure resistance... Will see 😀 …
