Hello guys, i got this MB without a BIOS and Keyboard Controller. The keyboard Controller (HT6542B) is not a problem, i mean ebay but the bios rom is a really rare. Please help me to find the rom file.

Thanks a lot man 😀 . Another question, what exactly eprom was in your mb (i mean model and brand) ? I guess M27C512-10F1 or something would be ok...

I'm not sure exactly, because I'm not going to peel off the nice AMI sticker. But for sure it's a 512kbit eprom. They're all functionally identical.

I have written a bios via tl866 plus so i think this part is ok. Need some time for right jumpers position. Btw HT6542 and HT6542B is the same Keyboard Controller or not ? And as i read from wiki eisa slots are back compatible with isa cards (vga, i\o controllers, etc), right ?

No idea on the keyboard controller.
The EISA slots work with 8-bit and 16-bit ISA cards.

It's looks like this now with bios and Keyboard Controller, but still a black screen 😢 Will try reflash bios and buy 6542B - https://www.ebay.com/itm/HOLTEK-HT6542B-DIP-4 … =1&isGTR=1#shId maybe this is a reason. Because as i know without any Keyboard controller or wrong one it no boots either.
