Having lots of problems with this old MB with P133 fitted.
First problem was 2Gb HD failed to spin up and was confirmed dead in another PC.
Fitted another HD but cmos fails to recognise it, or indeed any HD I try to fit, ranging in size from 124Mb to 1.2Gb. Auto detect does not find anything so parameters are entered manually on the setup page. It will boot to DOS on a floppy, but FDISK reports "No fixed disks present"
After the message "PNP Init completed" there is about a 45 second delay before it continues with the boot sequence.
And another thing - I cannot clear the CMOS either. Jumpered the pins for about 1/2 hour - nogo.
Old MB terminal do you think?
Cheers,
Brodie
