Thanks for the info, this may explain trhe difficulties Im having. I have got the control panel etc and have got the bios version 1.31 and flash program but get errors when flashing the bios. After the first attempt my Mac didnt boot and I had to flash it on my misses PC.
The flash chip number is M28F256-15C1 V58SP9740A Think I got the right chip. Model number is MIL2P/8N Thanks Mike on 25/6/02 20:18, Ben Smith (QM Systems) at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > The Millenium II should be flashable without changing any jumper or > dip switch (that was only on the original Millenium I believe), > However some (most?) of the PC cards only have a 128k flash chip, the > Mac code is larger and requires a 256k or bigger flash chip, it is > possible to change the chip if you are good at surface mount re-work > (I have done this myself), if you are in doubt then let me know what > the number on the flash chip is and I will look it up for you. > The card will work with OS9 (I use it in an 8200/120 with 9.1. > The second connector on the card is NOT a Mac connector however, it is > a proprietary expansion connector for a Video I/O module and Matrox > specifically state that you risk damaging the card by plugging a > monitor into it, you must use the VGA connector only, (VGA to Mac > adaptors are cheap and easy to come by). > I also have the flash utilities and control panel at home if you have > problems getting them. > Ben. > -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
