or maybe they have other issues beyond the BIOS.
Those yes. I did find someone on here, or Vogons, that programmed the BIOS and it would boot, but still had trouble with the IDE hard drive. Not much discussion beyond that.I assume you are referring to these? The seller used to state that previous buyers got them booting by replacing the BIOS. I see he has removed that from the listing. Possibly he got tired of playing tech support, or maybe they have other issues beyond the BIOS.
I thought the battery looked suspicious. Photo is blurry though, maybe intentionally!...Like the obvious barrel battery leakage seen in the photos...
The 386 ones? I do remember MBs for $50 also from routers.That same seller used to have some PEAK/DM boards. I think those had issues as well, even post-BIOS replacement. I haven't much experience with them, but imagine that age/damage/differences in design ultimately make these more of a tricky choice for conversion.
i got one and i am looking for a bios for it.
Sounds good. I can't tell what the part number is of the big Chips&Technologies part, but maybe there's a MR BIOS for it? Probably better than trying to match up some other AMI or Phoenix BIOS from another board.time to do this ill let you know how the testing goes

Nice to finally see some information for that board. I see you've been experimenting with different BIOS images by the SST chip in the original's EPROM's place.There:
JC INFORMATION SYSTEMS CORPORATION JCS286/SCAT (JC1080C 527/2)
JC INFORMATION SYSTEMS CORPORATION JCS286/SCAT (JC1080C 527/2) is a motherboard based on the Chips & Technologies 82C235 (Single Chip AT (SCAT)) chipset. Get specs, BIOS, documentation and more!theretroweb.com
Here's two BIOS images for that chipset. Might be promising. https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=60389&start=20hmm i am looking for a bios to make it work with hmm
yes yes! those photos are actually mine! :D thats my mobo! :DNice to finally see some information for that board. I see you've been experimenting with different BIOS images by the SST chip in the original's EPROM's place.
