Hi, I dug up first pc (80486) I have ever touched (and yes, it fell on me once). It is still working!
I have built few computers to this day, but I have very limited experience with tech this old.
From the POST code I managed to identify motherboard.
EDIT: This is the motherboard. My previous identification was incorrect.
There is intel 486dx2-50 socketed.
I also found ST486dx2-66 and am contemplating the swap.
Bus and core frequency seems same for intel 486dx2-66. Would it be enough to set jumpers the same, or is there more to it?
Can anybody shed some light on what I need to check first, and/or possible dangers that come with socketing cpu that is not on official compatibility list please?
Thanks!
Edit: added questions about jumpers
Edit2: corrected motherboard link
