i've been scrounching the net for the last 2 hours looking for ANY relivant info for this one motherboard..

now it appears that majority of ANY computer i get that i'm told to fix, ends up with the "odd" hardware....

According to gigabyte, they have never made anything of the sort... go figure


Here's the Name:

GA-586AT

THAT'S IT, no revision number no addition letters or characters of any sort.. just plain ol GA-586AT

I need a manual, and i need to find the latest bios for it...

BTW, anyone heard of a Rhino? (motherboard)

problem ATM is, attempting to get a 166mhz P1 to run at it's rated speed.... seems to be stuck on 125mhz reguardless of what FSB/Multiplier i set on the board..... strange.... (according to the onboard FSB/Multiplayer info, the lowest attainable at the given jumper settings is saposed to be 200mhz yet it stil says 125..... (i'm guess it's stuck at 50fsbx2.5 )

I don't have a clue on the problem, but the board is probably from Gigabyte. Try the "Others" slider and browse the various models within the 586AT family. There are quite a few but look around and see if it's possible to pin the correct one down.

i've gone through, like i said before, they simply don't have it listed..

if anyone wants a little more info... it's a 4 ISA/3PCI/6 72pin SIMM slot motherboard

I know those 3 little facts can narrow down the specific boards quite quickly...

but i looked through majority of the manuals that closely resemble the specs of this board.. and they are NOT the same....

[Vampyromaniac]

dunno....
Have you tried googling the BIOS string?

[mkk]

Is the board perhaps from an OEM system? Sometimes it's only possible to find information about OEM-boards from the OEM manufacturer, as the actual manufacturer has no obligation to support end users.

[Judas]

nope.. it is not OEM...... sorry.... wish i had something to go by...

there are several gigabyte "GA-586AT[color=lime]?[/color]" (but they have a longer string )is listed right on thier site, look in others

there is a Magitronic GA-586AT

etc I need more data

what revision or designator and that do you need? look for a revision number, the bios string, and current bios version/date chipset, color, fccid, anything you have


you have a camera get me some shot of the jumpers/screen printing and i'll see what i can do....
