I just got a Toshiba T-1500 desktop PC/XT. Unfortunately the only info I found on the web is this:
http://www.todocoleccion.net/catalo...30-x-21-desplegado-60-x-21-muy-raro~x18475339
Specs:
4.77MHz 8088 (white ceramic Fairchild, soldered)
640k RAM on-board
CGA with RCA composite video on-board (tested to work, no color though)
female 9-pin D-sub, probably CGA RGBI
male 9-pin D-sub, possibly MDA
female 25-pin D-sub, possibly parallell port
three horizontal ISA slots
one 5.25" 360k floppy, with physical sliding locks for the drive door
There are two 3-pin jumpers marked CRTC, and one 8-bit DIP-switch. No info on these.
A WD1002-WX2 harddrive controller boots a Seagate ST-251. Unfortunately it is configured to use only 10mb of the 42mb available. I will have a go at modifying the ROM to get correct parameters for the drive.
Also present is a clock/RS-232 card, without any manufacturer markings. 8250 serial chip, 8255 chip that accesses the clock. Separate battery in holder. I guess I need some specific software to read the clock.
So my question is simply: can anyone tell me more about the computer itself. Specs, jumper settings etc?
I'll make some other thread for the ISA-cards.
