Hello again Paul.
I think that you're right.
The EPROM is marked 'M36'. I am using it in a Pentium 3 machine. Later
it will probably be used in an Athlon XP box. I take it that this is
probably causing my problem?
Am I correct in assuming that I need to obtain a 'W36' chip and swap the
two?
Does anyone know if the revision number of the chip is significant? I
was told that the original card was revision 1.5.
Thanks for your help,
Michael Nelson
