    I've got original Rev.A (BIOS : 04/24/1981) motherboard of IBM PC 5150





  • According to any user, Maximum RAM is available to 736KB on IBM PC 5150 motherboard.
    SW2 should be set as follows.
    (BIOS should be 10/27/82)

    1 - OFF / 2 - ON / 3 - OFF / 4 - ON / 5 - OFF

    This SW2 setting can't be found on this URL

    I've tried to install IBM PC DOS version 5.00.1 with 3.5" FDD on IBM PC 5150 (Rev.A, Rev.1 BIOS)

    https://forum.winworldpc.com/discussion/comment/166607#Comment_166607

    But the installation message has problem on IBM PC 5150 Rev.1 (04/24/81) and Rev.2
    (10/19/81)
    This issue also is same on MS-DOS 5.0, but installation has no problem.

    I tried to initilize 10MB HDD with IBM/Xebec MFM HDD controller.
  • Area 5150 is introduced.



    This is for IBM PC 5150/5160 (4.77MHz) with CGA Graphic Card.
    Also it requires 640KB RAM.

    So this can't be run on IBM PC 5150 with Rev.0 / Rev.1 BIOS because of
    RAM limitation. (They recognize to 544KB.)
