I have been working on an IBM PS/2 Model 80 (8050-071) today and have encountered a few problems. These are listed below, but immediately I am after a second hand 486 Motherboard which can replace the one currently in the PS/2 80. Current problems are: 1) When I boot, I get an error 2401 *unless* I leave the SVGA monitor unplugged and plug it back in after it has done the# POST 2) The battery is flat/gone - what should be on the speaker assembly? Any old lithium battery? 3) There seems to be a problem with the "Video Graphics Array" cicuitry. I get an error 00240900 during the diagnostics of the video 4) There are two IBM Memory modules plugged into the board, each is 1MB. One of the pins on bank 16 (motherboard side) is broken, yet the POST reports 2048K OK..... 5) Are the modules in 4) the sum total system memory? 6) Are MCA SCSI-2 cards easy to come by? 7) Has anyone got a suitable IBM PS/2 Model 80 486 motherboard with SVGA onboard they are prepared to pass on/swap?? -- David Longley
