As a computer dealer I have noticed that the quality on 14" monitors has
stabalized to be GOOD.  I've had no DOA's, and very few with less than a
perfect picture.

BUT, with the 15"ers that's a totally different story.  I have gone through
seven in the last two weeks and all have had some problem:

  I have a question to PC community:

  As far as I understood, the RAM memory on the
486 computers is actually DRAM, contrary to
SRAM cache memory. What I don't understand then
is why to upgrade the RAM from 8Mb to 16Mb cost
at least 150 bucks. DRAM is supposed to be much
cheaper.

   The P24T is sort-of like a 586sx chip. 64-bit internal and 32-bit
external. The ZIF socket on the new Zeos motherboard is specifically
designed with the P24T in mind for future upgrades. The BIOS on the new
board is a flash ROM so any BIOS upgrades neccessary could be done via
software.

Subject: motherboard does not like serial/parallel cards???
Keywords: What is wrong??
Date: 6 Oct 92 03:45:59 GMT
Organization: Georgia Institute of Technology

I seem to have a problem with my motherboard and serial/parallel
cards.  It began to give me problems a few weeks ago.
Here is the situation:
   
   I have 4 cards:  1 - ide/floppy/2serial/1parallel
                    1 - ide/floppy
                    1 - 2serial/parallel (brand new)
                    1 - 2serial/parallel/game (also brand new)

   If I put the ide/floppy card in with no I/O ports installed
   at all, it boots and works fine MOST (will explain most later)
   of the time.
   If I put the ide/floppy/serial/etc card in it will not boot 
   and usually gives an error of bad cache memory.
   If I put in the ide/floppy and either of the serial/parallel
   cards it will not boot, however it does not give any error
   messages at all, just usually does something weird and
   halts all apparent operation.
   Back to the booting most of the time with just the ide/floppy
   card :  the only time this does not usually work is after I
   have tried the other cards and go back to this one. I have only
   did this twice, so maybe it needs time off between actually
   working.

This thing has me stumped.  I thought it may be the actual cards,
but I just bought a new one (one of the new ones mentioned above)
with similiar results.

If you have any ideas, please let me know by email, cause I would 
like to have an idea before I send it in for repair (under warranty,
fortunately) because I just did that and it still does not work
correctly.

Thanks,
  Thomas Oates

	The problem is when I access my A: drive, it reads the floppy disk.
Then wen I replace this floppy disk and put in another one. It won't recognize
it, but still think that I still have the first disk in. Anyone know why this
happens? When I didn't have the 1542 controller in and used an IDE HD off of theIDE controller, it didn't give me this problem.
	Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. BTW, i am running 
off of a 386-40 w/ 8MB and I didn't install the Adaptec driver for the

Hello.  I have a rather ancient but entirely trustworthy full-size
Compuadd clone of around 1987 vintage, currently being a 386sx via a
Microway card.  I am getting tired of the lack of performance
(everything except the processor is a 286 design.)  So I am wondering
about buying a 486/33 motherboard, since I want to keep all my power
supply/disks/add-on cards.

How generic are 486 motherboards?  Are they all the same size with
similar mounting points?  Or am I likely to get one which doesn't
quite fit my case etc.?  Are there recommended vendors of these
boards?  In the back of Byte I see folks like JDR selling them but I
don't know if they are any good.  Do you get more quality for more $?

Many thanks for any pointers,

If your not too bent of speed, you could always use a software math           
co-processor emulator. It will be A LOT slower than if you had the real    
thing, but at least you will save yourself about $90+.  You can find
shareware 8087 (or maybe even 80x87) emulators on local BBS's or at the
WUARCHIVE ftp site.

I think there is one in wuarchive called EM87.ZIP in the /msdos/emulators

Has anyone seen the new Philips line of monitors?  I spoke to

monitor does 1280x1024 up to 100Hz refresh using their "new"

dot pitch and will be priced lower than the obvious competitor,
the NEC 5fg.  The monitors also have an LCD screen in the lower
left corner (like the Mag I guess).

I'm thinking about buying one, but I'd like to hear from someone
that's actually seen one first.

For high refresh at 1280x1024, there are few choices:
Philips 1764 ($), Nec 5fg ($$), Nanao T560i ($$$), any others?

I want to "downgrade" my system from a vga monochrome to a MDA/Hercules

Phoenix bios.  I changed from a Cardnial vga card to a no-name MDA/Hercules

When I set the bios from ega/vga to mono, and changed the
motherboard jumper from color to mono, I got the beep code for a keyboard
error and the system hangs.  I have tried all other combinations of the
ega/vga, color40, color80, and mono (in the monitor type on the setup
screen), and both positions of the color/mono jumper.  I have even tried
the setting "not installed".  The best I can get is an error message
that says the there is a Display Adapter Failure.  It then proceeds to 
boot, but the operating system won't load.  

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Summary: help me incrase my PC's RAM

	I'm somewhat new to the world of PC hardware, and would like some
advice. I'm thinking of increasing the RAM in my NCR PC8 (286/12), and would
like to know what I should watch out for. I know that the motherboard uses RAM
chips and not SIMM's, but after that, I'm lost.

    Would I be able to convert to SIMM's without replacing the motherboard
and/or would there be an advantage to doing so?

    Do I need to be sure that I get the same brand of RAM chips as the ones
already in place?

    Do I need to be sure that I get the same speed (e.g. 80ns, etc.) as the 
existing chips?

    Do I need to let the BIOS know how much more memory I have installed?

And, of course, the obvious one :)
    Is there ANYTHING else that I should know before I go tinkering inside
my computer?



	Any information will be appreciated.

The reason why he was unsure (giving him the benefit of the
doubt) was that it does depend on the BIOS.  We we come out
with another modular or upgradeable system, our BIOS works
with all known processors which could be used in the system.
Key on that phrase "all known processors".  If we do not have
a P24T to try out the BIOS, then it is quite possible that the
internal configuration tables are not setup to handle that
processor or were an educated guess from the written
information that we have from Intel, AMD, Cyrix, etc.
Fortunately, that's what FLASH BIOS or socketed ROMs are for!

If you get through POST, then probably all you have to worry
about is Floppy accesses.  If that's OK, then I wouldn't worry
about upgrading the BIOS unless you aren't getting the
performance you should be with the new chip (ie. maybe
something needs to be configured within the processor).

Oh don't worry about that... AMD and Cyrix will tame that
Intel beast :)

Pretty good at 115Kbaud: peer-peer with

of weeks ago to see about updating the software and (ta-da) not found
anywhere. (They were called Applied Knowledge Groups, Inc., sold through

they went.)

Dear Ladies and Gentlmen on Net:

 I am planning to use a FAX modem on non MS-DOS enviroment (386BSD and
so on). As you might know, most products are provieded with driver and
utility.  but it just take care of MS-DOS enviroment. For example,
Intel SatisFAXtion is very popular and good products, but it has a
co-processor and seems to be needed to down load a firm ware before
using.  And Last week, I asked the Intel Custmore Support Center to
inform how to programing and controling a board, but they never
response..... 
 
 So I decided I am going to buy other product for using. but I am not
expert of this area. Please indicate your suggestion for product
before I buy a wrong one again ;-) 

Question:

  1. What "EIA Class 2 standard" means ?
  2. In Group 3 mode, what's 9,600 bps vs 14,400 bps 
  3. Can I control it with similer Hayes command set?
  4. Future and Specification is opened( Can I get it )?  

Thanks in advance.

I have a year old 386-33 with 4meg of memory. I am having difficulty

simms that are all the stores seem to carry around here. While checking 
things over carefully, I've found something curious. The motherboard
documentation in the memory section says it uses 80ns simms (which is what
I thought I asked for - but it's been a year). But the cmos section has
settings for both 80ns and 100ns simms in the documentation and my cmos
is set up for 100ns. So now I'm not sure exactly what speed simms I have.

The simms are 1Mx9 with each chip labelled as follows
