|
|
Hi,
I have acquired a Super Wildcard SMS3201 (Super Magicom Plus on the board) that I am trying to resurrect.
There is a suspicion about the EPROM chip - it was installed in reverse when I got it, and I did not know better and powered it up - it got hot and the EPROM window lit up.
I was able to dump the image, and I can see that it references v2.6CC.
I would like to get a v2.6CC BIOS dump file that I can compare against to see whether the EPROM is good or bad.
I'm aware that there is a v2.8CC BIOS, and I have the file for it that I will eventually make use of. For now I'd like to compare my v2.6CC dump with a known good image.
Thank you!

@NorQue
Thank you for your BIOS dump.
My dump is different, in terms of certain ending/starting characters (?) - it seems where yours has 00, on mine it has FF
Anyways, the BIOS EPROM chip had been put in reversed when I got the unit, and the chip got hot and the EPROM window lit up. Looking at the EPROM chip under a microscope I can see that one of the pin leg wires has failed and broken like a fuse wire. I was still able to get a dump of the EPROM, but it is probably not functioning correctly.
I will need to get a new EPROM to burn a new BIOS - probably v2.8CC.
Thank you!
