Where is Jumper J7E1 ? Does this PSU meet the requirements ? Yes it should. Directly behind the AGP slot as it shows on page 55 Of ProdSpec and page 27 of the ProdGuide. Since you like pictures, here are a few ;p Separate note: maybe you should read thru this stuff too: http://web.archive.org/web/ …

See my posts above with the manual white pages. It shows the jumper settings for 486dx2. Use that jumper setting for 33mhz. CPU Or maybe it was the Pentium overdrive CPU setting. You need to switch the jumpers for 286kb of cache too when used. See photos above. Update: Actually, your motherboard is …

Yeah, I have another PSU coming so hopefully that will work. This current PSU barely meets requirements And it is very old and weathered so I don’t trust it.

Not sure it would impact the current problem, but is this an OEM board, rather than Intel retail? - the altered assembly number (685012-509) doesn't appear in the last cumulative spec update for the board which might suggest OEM. What it does indicate is that all the xxxxxx-509 series boards are …

I am waiting for a new PSU to arrive so I can continue this build. Regarding that, I see in the photos that the board has a standard 20-pin ATX power connector but also the 6-pin AUX power connector. Is the AUX connector required? Did you have to source a power supply with a unique wiring harness …

I like the AWE64. It produced okay sound and is supported in most DOS games. I think it sounds better than the Sound Blaster 16. I would use a different video card however. That Banshee is NOT very good. Maybe and TNT or TNT2 or GeForce.
