I recently got a few parts together to build a 486
computer to mess around
with OS/2 warp 3 and a few other old OS's.
Now that I got the system together I find the motherboard is dead, my
other boards are PCI so I cant use them.
Anybody have an old 486 socket 3 motherboard they dont need? Has to have
at least 2 VLB slots and no pci slots. Boards with 72 pin memory slots
would be nice but not necessary since I have 30 pin simms around here. I
will need a processor also if I cant use my AMD 486/120 or 486/133 on it.
The board I have has a 486/66 but I am not sure if its dead or not.
The reason I want VLB is to use my promise IDE caching controller and the
Diamond stealth 64 VRAM (with expansion memory board) VLB cards which were
pretty fast in their day, that and I dont have an old world VESA machine
to mess with.
If you have a board let me know and we can work something out.
