I only have four 27C128 EPROMs , therefore trying alternative ones (erasing/programing) is pretty time consuming 😉Since you have a way to program chips, can you do a dump of the existing BIOS ROMs and link them here?
Also, here's an AWARD BIOS for this mobo, that I know will respond to CTRL+ALT+ESC because I have this exact mobo and it came with this BIOS. It does have some limitations though, there is no support for user-definable HDDs I'm afraid. So either you need to find something that matches the BIOS parameter table, or you need to use XTIDE. Or SCSI. My mobo works with MFM drive and controller but the SCSI card worked nice as well.EDIT: Don't let the filename fool you, the date is from the last 16 bytes, where the first long jump is. The actual date of this BIOS is 10/20/87, this is AWARD 3.03.
Thanks - I'll try it.
I've edited my post with the picture of complete board and linked there BIOS 'images'.
