pieced this one together over several years
specs
HDD - 1.4GB SCSI, 500MB IDE (in the caddy for easy removal)
1.44 floppy drive
1.2 mb floppy drive
100MB SCSI Zip drive
CD-ROM drive IDE
UM 486V AIO motherboard
66mhz Intel 486 DX2
32MB fpm RAM
256kb L2 cache
BusLogic BT-445S VLB SCSI card
Tseng Labs ET4000 VLB video card 2MB
Roland mpu-401-T midi card
Gravis Ultrasound ACE
Sound Blaster 16 CT2900
I was able to get this thing running thanks to the help of some of the people here, especially with the SCSI issues I was having. One minor issues I have with this machine that only started recently is sometimes it doesn't quite power up. I hit the power button and the HDD's spin up and the lights come on and the fans but I get no video output and the RAM doesn't count up. sometimes I have to shut it down completely and power it up 2 or 3 times before it actually starts for real. thinking maybe I need a new PSU. 250 Watts should be plenty for this era right? Once its up and running its completely stable.
