I won an old 486 EISA motherboard on ebay missing a
few chips most importantly is the BIOS.
Mylex MAE486-33 Rev P2, anyone have the BIOS file for it?
Manual says:
l Verify that the BIOS chip is a 28-pin, 27512
chip, with a 200 ns access time.
W For the MAE486 - verify that the BIOS chip
is marked "EISA BIOS 486 MAE rev xx"
I found the bios for the MBE486 online but that's a different board. And I did find
the EISA config files.
I think it is missing the keyboard controller, and 2 Dallas RTC chips as well (have one
of them at least). Working EISA 486 are getting hard to find.
I'm still trying to find a home for my EISA SCSI controllers so that I
don't have to send them to recycling. Free for the cost of (surface!)
postage. Unlike the classic Macs and Mac monitors, packing them
shouldn't be too big a problem...
