I just picked up a 486dx2 50 and was wondering if anyone had a working mobo that would fit this chip
also looking for a sb 16 card or similar (if anyone has a gravis ultrasound that too:P)
memory and a decent dos graphics card, i remember i had a cirrus logic one back in the day. If anyone has suggestions let me know
Is the sound card you're looking for the old-school ISA SB16? I've got one of those, just come in stock today.
Also, what socket mobo are we talking? I've got a Socket 7 AT board lying around somewhere, nice little transitional piece with SDRAM and EDO slots, PCI and ISA sockets. It's got a bunch of EDO RAM on it at the moment and I've no CPU to put in it.
The only rear panel connector off the board is a DIN for a keyboard, so you'll need something to plug a mouse into if you want that, but I do have a PCI VGA card for it so you can plug a monitor in.
I believe the 486 DX 2 runs on Socket 3 mobos. Skellionz should find a mobo first imho, and then go on searching for various cards according to that motherboard's available expansion sockets. (ISA/PCI)
I have all of the above needed items, lemme check tomorrow :)
and yeah, 486 and relevant cpus need a socket3 mobo, socket7 is for pentium+
eBay is a great source for old ISA cards, well worth a hunt about. If you got any issues with old PC stuff then I'd highly recommend this helpful forum: http://vogons.zetafleet.com/ Drivers will probably be your main concern though.
Hi
I've got some EDO ram and a Cirrus Logic graphics card.
Interested?
Cheers
Raph
I am afraid I cannot find the 486 mobos I remember I had... I think I just gave them and forgot about it...

I see a Gravis UltraSound PnP Pro , a SB AWE64 Value (OEM version most likely, maybe dell/hp) and a Roland RAP-10 (this one is GM-only, 4MB samples, basically a SCD-15 + sfx engine like the soundblaster - not compatible but it does make sfx in games that worked with it)
I might have some old mobos, gotta dig em out though...
Have already found a Socket 2 mobo, which sadly will not take your cpu.
Just give me some time to search for more stuff..Only shipping costs of course. :)
