I have an a Opti 82C895 MB that has 3 PCI and 3 VLB that has a Phoenix Bios and looking for a suitable Award or AMI Bios for it.

The board has VIP Rev A written on it. This is the closest I found that resembles just about all of it with a few different jumpers.

Thanks.

Can you take a good picture of your board and post it here ?

Hate posting a reply and then have to edit it because it made no sense 😁 First computer was an IBM 3270 workstation with CGA monitor. Stuff: https://archive.org/details/@horun

These boards are not the same as yours, but they use the same OPTi 82C895 chipset; the BIOS images may work on yours.

Jetway board: http://www.win3x.org/uh19/motherboard/show/5505
QDI board: http://www.win3x.org/uh19/motherboard/show/5568

We have the Edom board in uh19 as well, I'll let you know if I can find the BIOS for it:

There's an MR BIOS for this chipset you can try out, too.
I can't guarantee that it will work on your board, but if it does it'll be an obvious improvement over the Phoenix BIOS.

Life isn't long enough to re-enable every hidden option in every BIOS on every board... 🙁
