Hi all,
I've two old Computers which I just put together and ... I've some problems:
I have:
2x Mainboards
3x CPUs
different EDO- and SDRAMs
Harddrive, CDRom etc. are no Problem.
Both mainboards are called 82430VX/P54C PCI Mainboard - 5V A0/A2/A5
But they are a bit different.
The one fits to my handbook (V1.0 I think) and has only Single Voltage Setting for CPU. 3.3V or 3.45V-3.6V
The other one fits (as far as I could see) to a pdf-file of a newer version of the handbook of the mainboard (When I googled for the complete mainboardname got it). This is V2.2. It has single and dual voltage setting. Single is the same as the first mainboard. Dual is for 2.5V, 2.7V-2.8V or 2.9V.
And I've three CPUs:
AMD-K6-233ANR - 3.20V Core / 3.3V I/O
Pentium i166
Pentium i100
The Pentium i100 was in the first Mainboard, the Pentium233 was in the secound one.
Moreover I've 1x 64 SDRAM, 1x 32 SDRAM, 2x 32 EDORAM and 1x 16 EDORAM.
OK, as far as good.
I want the one PC for Win98SE and the other one for Win95.
I thought about 2x 32 EDORAM, P166 and the MainboardV2.2 for Win98 and 32 SDRAM, P100 and MainboardV1.0 for Win95.
Problem: 32SDRAM were not acceptet
(I think because of the P100)
Then I thought about putting the AMD K6 on the Mainboard V2.2 and the P166 on the mainboard V1.0 because I hope the 64 SDRAM will do on the mainboardV2.2 and the 64 EDORAM on the mainboard V1.0.
My problem is, the core voltage of the AMD K6 does not fit to the mainboard. If I set the jumper on 2.9V at the board does the CPU although work?
If not, which other possibility do I have?
How much RAM does Win95 accept? I do not find it in the handbook.
Thanks for help
