I know Rob Taylor had begun work on reverse engineering a board, but if anyone has a dead one they want to strip and scan, send it my way to replicate it ;)

One thing i thought of throwing out there was this: https://www.mouser.co.uk/ProductDetail/Microchip-Technology/LAN9218-MT?qs=%2Fha2pyFaduh7GoBaJaS3j52JXXhN34TMMTgkdc1u3tA%3D & https://www.mouser.co.uk/datasheet/2/268/MCHP_S_A0003010310_1-2520859.pdf Generic 32-bit interface (not for PCI), and...

I just got a 7100/66 board in the post - each and every electrolytic cap has leaked and leaked into the ground plane surrounding them! :o

For me, it's an Acorn 3010 or 3020 — hard to find one for a decent price these days, that's not been destroyed by the power of Varta battery explosion.

Funny you should ask, our school had RM Pentium 3 PC’s based on the AOpen (remember them?) 440BX boards and most had a 3dfx Voodoo 3 AGP in them (a few had Riva TNT2’s) and there never seemed to be any issues, on Windows 98SE.

Would you share the sussage with us? :p

Sprint will generate the data with the export function, you just need to redo the formatting.

@Genjoke could you please put this in your own thread instead of as a reply to someone else's? :)

Not hard at all, took about 10mins to figure out how to do it! Have a look at the github for it, the .xls files are the ones you want to look at.

I will definitely vouch for the smt assembly service at jlc, they've done a great job, very neat.

So these just arrived in the post...

For those replying in this thread - please post a new thread in this section, to save this post from being filled up :)

Always wanted a crown vic - but they were never available here in the UK...nor would owning one be at all sensible! :D

I've had decent enough luck with my OWON SDS1104 - the lower end version is quite cheap for basic stuff: https://www.owontechnology.eu/product/1365126/owon-sds1022-20mhz-2-channel-digital-oscilloscope

Argh, yes, sorry the silkscreen in that area is rather cramped.

This datsheet might help - start by probing the address lines and see if there's any wierdness :)

@JDW would be able to chime in on this - i seem to recall him posting over on EEVBlog about this exact issue.

https://wiki.preterhuman.net/Mac%27s-a-Million#/media/File:8CEBC8C8-E6D4-4C86.jpeg might be a good starting point, visually - looks like if it's populated the jumper at JB1 needs to be OPEN rather than closed?

Hi @cannfoddr ! This looks suspiciously like a video RAM failure - 1/2 the screen frame isn't being drawn - i'd recommend desoldering the chips at UB10 and UB11 - those are the 41264 DRAM's for the video system. I'd also check UF8 - the 74LS166.
