You shorted all the pins on the 4x2 header in between the power connector and daughter board?

Yes, using jumpers from old floppies, and CD-ROMS sitting around.

Are you using just the stock bios? Or have you flashed with a newer one? Either way, thanks for noticing, this should help a few people out.

This is still my original BIOS. I didn't want to flash because I have heard mixed feelings on that subject, also, it works fine the way it is, I dont have/need and PCI cards too. Although I would like to get rid of the crappy post, and have a regular post...ah well. Thanks.

I just flashed to newbiosm.bin.
Everything went well and is running great including my PCI NIC.
I formated & sys'ed the DOC in win98, copied newbiosm and utilities to DOC.
Disabled onboard IDE (which is what i'm using) in BIOS & unplugged HD.
Booted to DOC and flashed per another thread.
It went well, and the WebSurfer splash is gone, much better POST.
I'm having FUN.
