Hi,
    a friend of mine gave me a Soyo Mainboard. It's the SY5EHM.
    One problem: there is no BIOS CHIP!

    Now I have to Buy an empty EPROM and burn the BIOS that I downloaded
from the soyo site.

    The prob:     Which kind of CHIP is this?
                    (I know is a 256k x 8, but which electrically
equivalent??)


                            thanks alot   , jack. jack73@freemail.it

  You can't program a blank BIOS chip on the MoBo unless you have a working BIOS & do a hot swap &
program... I have programmed BIOS chips for $35.
