Foone🏳️⚧️ (foone@digipres.club)'s status on Thursday, 08-Aug-2024 06:13:38 JST Foone🏳️⚧️ I found the pinout, and I almost wish I hadn't.
This one connector includes PCI, IDE, RS232 serial, USB, PS/2, AC97 audio, PC Speaker, and the reset pin. -

I haven't even tried to install windows on this thing yet and already I can tell that their instructions are wrong. They tell you to install a driver file that exists on the CD, but not where they tell you it is
