    Cool A7V880 vmod needed (not 56k friendly)

    Ok I know most of you dun have this board, nor want it, but lets see if we can figure out how to do it.

    I'm going to assume they probably recycled the design from the A7V8X so I'll bet we can start from there.

    Here's a few pics. My camera sucks so I labelled what I could read off of each of the ICs. One not shown is lower on the board I have an arrow pointing to it.

    How about a couple pics taken from a farther distance so we can see the whole board?

    NM I'm not. See that IC between in the bottom middle of the board? Up and left of the IDE connectors. That's LM324D.

    clear picture + my camera don't exactly mix, I'll probably end up RMA'ing it though, because it's still not cold booting properly.

    Before I RMA it I'll take some pics of it at work with the good camera.

    I sent an RMA request for my board now. The onboard sound was popping and it still has cold boot issues. Maybe the one I get back will do 250mhz
