Hi,
don't know whether this is appropriate for this list, but I'll ask
anyway (it's over 10 years old).
I've got a machine which has a 4860 motherboard, this a combi
80486/80860 with EISA slots.
Overall it works fine, but there is a small problem enabling the
cache.
The battery is broken, so after turning off it loses it's BIOS and
EISA configuration. When this happens I can go into the BIOS and
setup everything, *enable the cache*, and boot from ide disk. Problem
is since the EISA configuration is still invalid, the SCSI controller
does not work.
After I setup the EISA configuration with the DOS CF.EXE utility, the
SCSI controller works, but the cache is disabled, and I cannot
re-enable it in the BIOS menu (menu item is disabled).
What can the problem be? Anyone experienced s/th similar?
regards,
chris
