This machine was purchased from our friends at The Hackery less than a month ago but was on my radar for the last year.
The exact model is the PC-9801CS5. It is an all-in-one machine. I can verify the system boots as the logic tray was put into a second CS and tested but this machine has power supply issues and will not yet turn on by itself yet.
All I knew when I first saw it was the power issue and that it had no keyboard or mouse. I returned from Japan earlier this month and brought back a suitable keyboard and supposedly a regular Microsoft InPort mouse can be adapted to work however the pinout for the adapter eludes me at the moment.
I have now pulled the machine apart and verified the specs
here match the hardware inside the system, plus a 4mb ram card is installed. I was not aware of the onboard audio at the time but while I was in Japan I had purchased a Sound Orchestra board as well as an IFC-NN SCSI2 board and a 4mb EMS cBus board in case it was needed.
My question is that Raion's stickied post indicates the 9801's were 16-bit however this machine has a 32-bit 386SX. Is still a 32-bit machine in that regard? Additionally are power supply issues known with these machines?
