Actually, there is a very good chance that might
be the case. The only stamping I could find was
right next to the Socket 5, it says:
Model: PA-2000
Doc: 14250
On the back is a sticker with:
K5546148
PA-2000
T5K279-A 05/'95
The Award BIOS chip is marked as having v6.13.
Is it possible to lookup the Award BIOS by
serial number? I know a company named Unicom
(I think) handles Award's BIOS updates.
I couldn't find any FCC number for lookup, so I
just went with what it said for the model number,
but that doesn't always mean it could be right.
The chip closest to the CPU is marked:
VIA
VT82C575MV
VA1J-7020
JAPAN 9516EAI CD
I guess if I plan on building anything out of
the motherboard, I may have to accept that it
won't use the larger drives. Oh darn, have
to buy another drive...<grin>!
Still open to any ideas, or if someone has access
to a manual. I seem to remember seeing some kind
of a database that was available that listed ALL
settings for drives, mobo, you name it. Anyone
have something like that they might be able to
use? I thought ForeFront offered something
like that...
THANKS!
