I recently bought an Olivetti M4-P133 in a non-working state.
The CPU/PSU fan spins but no POST or screen/beep. As a precaution I replaced the capacitors on the motherboard and the VRM but it still didn't help. Then I bought a POST-card and as I feared it showed no codes whatsoever in either the ISA or PCI slots, but at least all voltage rails are good. I have a replacement CPU in the mail but I doubt that is the issue. I have also tried all combinations for the RAM in case of a bad stick.
My next step is to reflash the BIOS with a TL866II Plus, but I need an image for that and that's easier said than done to find.
I'm hoping that someone here might have a disk or file with the image I need, or an equal system they could dump the ROM from? 😀
