HARRIS ADACOM computer

[Niko09]

Hi guys

I was hoping to get some help regarding an old computer I have called HARRIS ADACOM NetVision/SC. I could't find any info on internet, so any knowledge would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hello, I have the exact same computer! Do you have the disks that came with it? There is no integrated BIOS menu so there should be a setup utility on the disk.

Mine complains about a missing network card at boot and I don't know how to disable that.

Thank you.

The case looks identical to a Tulip vision line DC 486. Show us a pic of the MB ?

Mine seems to be a clone of the Tulip Vision Line WS 386SX. Unfortunately, the +12V line only gives +1.5V (that's why the HDD does not spin and the sound card is detected but does not give any sound).

It is indeed a Tulip : see the etched "TC24"

Find setup / diagnose programs on the Dutch Tulip site https://www.tulipgv.nl/diagnose.htm and https://www.tulipgv.nl/download.html

Look for shorted tantals on the MB / inside the powersupply to repair the 12V
