  1. Well, this Mobo + #AM386 CPU combo survived all the benchmarks I threw at it, and all the checks in CheckIt. It has never shown any sign of instability even after leaving it on continuous mem testing for hours.
    This means that:
    A) this mobo is #repaired
    B) I can release my QFP->PGA adapter for 386DX as it seems stable at 40Mhz
    Barring unexpected issues (which have been disturbingly common in the last month), tomorrow I'll work on the repo to make it presentable, then release it.

  6. Woohoo success! Look who's alive!
    The #AM386 i soldered in my #QFP to #PGA socket seems fine, and also this #repaired motherboard is giving good signs of life!
