If anyone happens to have a copy, could you post it here or somewhere?
I can't find one anywhere.

Thanks

There are different versions of boards like that, so to get the
exact manual, have a look here:

Yeh Paul - I had already visited that site. I cannot connect for some
reason. I tried for manuals at:

http://64.124.27.138/ecs/manual/mb/eng/k7/k7s5apro50eng.zip

http://64.124.27.138/ecs/manual/mb/eng/k7/k7s5a10eng.zip

http://211.99.203.130/ecs/manual/mb/eng/k7/k7s5a210eng.zip

They all fail identically. I can't connect to any.
I had tried Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Netscape.

Note I couldn't download drivers either. For example at:

http://64.124.27.138/ecs/driver/mb/vga/sis/Agp_121.zip

This is why I posted my request.

Thanks

I just tested your first link (k7s5apro50eng.zip) in three
browsers and they all worked.

Have you tried FTP ? For example, if I look at:

ftp://64.124.27.138/ecs/manual/mb/eng/k7/

I can see a list of all the files and many more.

What response do you get while trying FTP ?
Does a list of files show up using that URL
in one of your browsers (like Firefox) ?

You can also open up a command prompt (DOS window)
and type:

ftp 64.124.27.138

and reach the FTP site that way. You log in with
a user ID of "anonymous" (which is how web browsers
do it), and use a password that looks like an email
address "(e-mail address removed)". That should log
you in. The "cd" command can be used
to cd down the directory path, one level at
a time. The "ls" command will list the files.
This is what a session would look like:

ftp 64.124.27.138
userid ? anonymous
password ? (e-mail address removed)
cd ecs
cd manual
cd mb
cd eng
cd k7
ls (this should list the files in the k7 directory)
binary (binary mode to transparently get the files)
get k7s5apro50eng.zip
get ... (get whatever else you need)
quit (shut down connection when you are finished)

HTH,
Paul

Go figure! This AM, all seven pdf's downloaded from the URLs just
fine. My machine must not work on holidays or on Mondays. Makes one
wonder.

I downloaded all seven, because right now I do not know which MOBO
type I have. Without a CPU, I can't fire it up to look at the BIOS.
My manual says it is 'Award 2MB Flash ROM'. I do not see a BIOS
'version'. If the BIOS version is indicated on the MOBO itself, I
sure don't see it. I guess I could send the MOBO's S/N (if I could
find it!) to tech support, which I guess might be at
http://www.machspeed.com/
(e-mail address removed)

On the MOBO I see:
K8M8MSR2-VC
66137T021317 <<=== would this be the S/N do you think?
MID 003018A2B5C1

YES (Firefox). I tried one download and it worked too.

It looks like I can't function in the early AM either! I got 2 mobo
problems mixed up (Sharon is my better (?) half). Please IGNORE my
prior post containing misinformation involving Sharon's K8M8MS mobo.

This much is still true! This AM, all seven K7S5A mobo pdf's did
download from the above URLs just fine. My machine must not work on
holidays or on Mondays.

I had just bought a ECS K7S5A mobo on EBay (#300022018781), but have
not received it yet. I learned after I bought it that it apparently
does not include a manual. This is why I am downloading manuals - in
the hope that one will match the mobo I bought.

Please forgive my stupidity.
