I just picked up a 486 desktop for cheap on Craigslist and it has the M919 motherboard version 3.4B/F. The CPU is Am5x86 133MHz. It has 96MB EDO 60ns RAM installed.
It has a cache module installed. Verified that it is marked "M919-02S5" and has the HMC 15ns RAM SRAM. Looks legit. At POST there is a message that 256KB cache is present.
Of course, none of the DOSBENCH programs detect the L2 cache. Tried playing around with the BIOS settings related to cache, no joy.
Could the L2 cache problem be related to the use of EDO RAM? Or the amount of RAM installed? Or both of those things?
