Dumb mistake, Socket 3 486DX2

[Toby B.]

This might take a bit of digging. plasma-online lists the board as a Freetech/Flexus board (unknown model).

I think I have the MB ID'd as made by Genoa, TurboExpress 486PCI. The jumper settings in Total Hardware 99 match up. I'm not sure if the BIOS chip has ever been changed, I haven't changed it.

Check between the slots for a marking with ASY in it and reply with that.

This it? We might have found back an unknown Freetech board if you can indeed find that ASY number

There's a sticky-tag on the last ISA slot: F 94127377 :::still looking around:::

Yea, in the middle of the PCI's: ASY 01-00333-(blank silk-screen) Rev (blank silk-screen)

In reference to the DWG, the CPU is all the way to the right side of the board (as you look at the drawing). The jumpers match up, however JP22-JP24 are non-existant...aside from the slkscreen being in that location.

We'll name it 486F33 from now on then as that is the standard for Freetech/Flexus.

It's possible the setting are for a newer or older revision of the board. If the silkscreen is present at least it means we're dealing with the same board, albeit another revision.

Kelly, can you make a backup of your bios with awdflash from a clean DOS bootdisk and send it to [email protected]?

Use this one:

I can, yes. But...do a Google or Ask on a 486F33. Call it a hunch, but I'm thinking towards it being a F38, F39, or F41 with a change in chipsets. It's an idea...what do you think? I'd like to see some pictures.

They all have different chipsets. Not Intel Saturn.
