I acquired an old Pentium 233 MMX system with an AI5VG motherboard and am
trying to find the TMC website so I can hopefully download the latest BIOS
and motherboard files, and manual for it. The only site I've founf so far is
www.mycomp.tmc.com and that is nothing but some kind of search engine with
pop-ups. I'm afraid maybe their no longer in business.
Does anyone know if they still have a website where I can get these files,
or anyplace else where I can find them?
Thanks,
Snyde
 
Thanks! Nice site! Only problem is they don't have my motherboard. I have
the AI5VG, they have the AI5VG+. There is a difference.

i'm showing megastar has having a AI5VG still attempting to find TMC....that taiwan comp site is
now a front for..whatever the hell it is
 
can you retrieve the bios number as the post screen begins?

use the pause/break key to stop the screen roll. enter to start again
 
Here's the BIOS info:
06/23/1998-VP3-586B-W877-2A5LEM29C-00
I have a feeling they aren't in business anymore. I was hoping to get all
the drivers, BIOS files and manual for this motherboard. I have everything
for the video, sound, and ethernet card. It's working fine, I'd just like to
have it, just in case.
Thanks for your help,
Snyde

This is as close as I could get. There are files, but who knows whether
it is appropriate to use them ?

Drivers ? Might be better off getting a driver from viaarena.com

The manuals appear to have been staged on a separate server, which
never got archived. ( http://tmcusa.50megs.com/manual1.htm )

Try plugging 2A5LEM29C into wimsbios.com (it appears to be down at the
moment, otherwise I would have done it for you.)
 
Hi Paul,
Thanks for the links! I think I've got everything but the manual now. I
clicked on the link here, but the manual's not on there.
Thanks again!!
