While waiting for some parts to change the fans of my 8/e desktop, I took this card to look after it.
I got it two years ago and did not do anything with it. I even was not able to get any information about it. The numbers 700292-100 or 700233-10 did not help. Until now my friend reminded me that he showed me this foto once:
So this was clear then. Looking at the card I find some interesting markings on the ICs:
I tested the capacitors OK, so I put it in my 8/e. And it did not smoke. Manually I'm able to switch the core fields. But trying to boot OS/8 fails with this lights on:
So now I have some questions, is there anybody having the shematics of this card? Some more input about it? Stories? They seem to be seldom, because I do not find that with bing or google.
Have fun,
Volker
