Dual-Socket Nostalgia: Forex 386/486 motherboard repair

Описание: Time to repair the boards with battery damage I recently recovered from a local scrapyard! This board has two sockets and supports 386 as well as 486 CPUs. It came with an AMD 486 DX2-66 installed. Unfortunately, there is not much information available on "The Retro Web" - but I will supply the extra details that are missing.
