Gigabyte GA-686DX rev.1A
Hello,
Where can I find a (PDF) manual for a dual Pentium Pro motherboard I just acquired? The model name printed on it is GA-686DX, rev.1A. So far, I found a fairly comprehensive list of settings at http:// artofhacking.com/th99/m/E-H/34214.htm, but I’d like to have the actual manual, mostly to make sure that it matches my board’s revision for connector positions/labels, and also to have a list of the integrated ICs. I would also like to know if any BIOS updates are available, and where these could be found. I don’t care about drivers, in case you’re wondering. This is an excerpt of the information from Aida: Gigabyte GA-686DX Award Modular BIOS v4.51PG (12/05/96) 12/05/96-i440FX-8669-2A69HG0BC-00 BIOS message: Intel 440FX BIOS for Dual Pentium(R) Pro Processor V. 1.23 Chipset: Intel Natoma 82440FX PCI-00-0-02: Intel 82441FX PCI and Memory Controller - PMC [A-1] PCI-07-0-01: Intel 82371SB PCI ISA IDE Xcelerator - PIIX [B-0] PCI-07-1-00: Intel 82371SB PIIX3 - IDE Controller Thank you in advance, -- R. |

I was able to read that in OpenOffice. I can't find a BIOS for you. Paul |

Thank you, that was perfect. Although I had to install Word 2000 in a virtual machine to be able to see the graphics in the document. I can't find a BIOS for you. Well, thanks anyway. -- R. |
