Nice board. If it hasn't sold by the time I can afford to make a cheeky offer, I'll let you know what it would be worth to me
How many jumpers does it have for bus speed adjustment? _________________ My graphics card database can be found at http://www.gpuzoo.com.

Hard to answer) You can choose the processor speed and voltage.
There were several revisions. I have the same board(EXP4349) without a soldered 386 processor slot and a coprocessor slot.
In the specification on the site stason.org the diagram shows the soldered 386 processor, without a co-processor slot, but the board settings are suitable. |

I have one of these. There's probably a Vogons post on it somewhere. I had the hardest time getting it to run reliably with any CPU, and I'm used to setting up these old boards. I spent several hours on it and it eventually stopped turning on. Sitting in a box now. Hope your luck is better than mine.
I think it supports the oddbadd 3.6 V TI SXL2-66 in PGA-132 format if you install the VRM. |

I have one more motherboard ExpertBoard EXP4349, but without soldered connectors 80386 and 387DX.
If anyone has interest let me know. |

How much did the EXP4349 go for? Those are a lot more interesting because they can run 386 and 486 chips. What made the EXP4349 unique was that it has jumper support for a PGA-168 SXL2 at 3.6 V. And still had a 386 NPU socket to run the math-coprocessor. Also the ability to use PGA-132 386 chips. Can you attach a photo of your other EXP4349? _________________ The only thing I hate more than straightening CPU pins is having CPU's with bent pins in my collection. |

In working order, I checked it. For the price I have not thought yet.
This is how it looks:

Thanks for the photo. It will be quite the effort to convert this to the original EXP4349 - needs CPU and NPU sockets and numerous bridges removed and replaced with jumper headers. Also needs an LT1587 VRM for non 5V chips.
I can offer $35 USD for the motherboard. _________________ The only thing I hate more than straightening CPU pins is having CPU's with bent pins in my collection. |
