I just got a pentium overdrive PODP5V83, but the manual of M915i motherboard have no mention about P24T.
Is there a hidden jumper setting on M915i for P24T? Thanks.

Set the jumpers for DX2-66.

Thanks, I will try.
Really exciting! The Pentium OverDrive 83MHz works!
Glad it worked out! You have a very nice setup there.

And I´m confident 1MB L2 cache will be capable to cache the whole lot of 4MB RAM 😉

Is this a modified Pentium Overdrive? Without fan normally it will run only on 33MHz, so with multiplier 1. That would be slower than a DX2-66, but still good to install Windows XP, haha.
Where did you get those Winbond W241024AK-15 chips from?
Good luck for the replacement job. Maybe it will be a good idea to install sockets.
EDIT: The exact same serial number on all 12 chips looks a bit suspicous. I am afraid you are going to replace fake cache with fake cache.

I found the chip on a B2C website (taobao).
Yes, can not rule out all the chips are still fake. I'll try. The corresponding 32dip sockets are really really hard to find, maybe I can use double 16pin dip socket instead.
I'm thinking use pencil trick may get the frequency back. Very interesting to see running Windows XP on a 486 platform. And I predict the OS should be very slow even frequency on track
And the Pentium Overdrive 83 is little bit odd, there's no marks on the backside.

Yeah. Thanks.
I will find an old AT keyboard to get through the post to check whether the board's old BIOS can display the Pentium OverDrive correct or not, since the post stuck there with keyboard error.

Maybe 256MB RAM will also covered 😉

...in write-back mode, of course 😒

Glued 6 small heatsinks on the top.

I'm not sure it can really support write back mode.

Install a 20x20mm fan on the heat sink, just to be on the safe side.

Does it now run at 33 or 83MHz?

33MHz, I try to short the GND dot and Sensor dot with a wire, but it failed to boot. Any way to work around to get 83MHz back? Thanks.

Okay, I'll install a fan on top.

I´m sure this UMC PCI chipset does support L2 write back mode. But if it is capable of cacheing 256MB RAM in write through mode, the cacheable area will probably be 128MB in write back mode.

That's great, 256MB memory on the way.
