Martin, did that work? I will try that on Monday. I know some NIC do that but I did not know it was the first rows of pins to leave empty. On Sat, 2003-03-08 at 19:34, Martin Herweg wrote: [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Take a look at: > > http://www.ltsp.org/documentation/eproms.txt > > Th

Interesting. I've NEVER seen a 30-pin socket. I guess you learn something every day, eh ? Jim. On 8 Mar 2003, Roy Souther wrote: > No it definitely is a 30 pin socket. I have 32 pin chips. If it was a 32 > pin socket I would have used one but it is definitely a 30 pin socket. > > On Sat, 200

well I was reffering to the EPROM, because its the least known part of the combination and a rough ASCII drawing doesnt help as much as the picture 8) --- Roy Souther <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Wrong NIC pedro. That picture if for a RealTech NIC. > > On Sat, 2003-03-08 at 19:40, pedro noticios
