I've recently managed to acquire an XT motherboard, complete with an NEC V20 12 MHz CPU, the manual & utility diskette.
Unfortunately, the utility diskette (due to its age) has become unreadable with data reading errors.
I've attached a picture of the motherboard, manual and utility diskette.
I was hoping that someone might perhaps have (or know where I can find) the utility software that came with this motherboard.
The volume label on the diskette is "UX-UTILITY" and the main utility that is on the diskette is a file called "TURBO.COM".
I know that this is a small software utility that, when loaded, will enable a user to switch between normal and turbo mode by pressing either "CTRL"+"ALT"+"+" or "CTRL"+"ALT"+"-".
Fortunately, the motherboard can also be adjusted via a hardware turbo switch, but I would just like to obtain the software as well.
EDIT: I believe that this motherboard is actually just a rebranded Juko Super Turbo 12 MHz.
EDIT: I've managed to recover some of the disk contents. Seems there are 5 files, namely "TIMER.COM", "TURBO.COM", "CDISK.SYS" (which is a RAMdrive EMS driver for the motherboard) and what appears to be two text files for the TURBO & CDISK utilities. If someone does come across a disk that contains these files, please let me know.
