Posted by: Quadraman on 2007-06-01 16:37:44 Does anyone know anything about this one? Just picked this one up off Freecycle.
Here is a pic

The Z on mine is purple instead of blue.

Is it a mac clone or something? No it runs W2K. It's not a standard PC clone, though. I think it's a graphics station of some kind.

Posted by: Big Bird on 2007-06-01 17:40:53 It appears to be a high-end graphics workstation. It's just a standard PC that will run any standard PC OS, but is supposed to have exceptional high end components, such as video cards, motherboards, processors, etc. I've heard of Intergraph as producing CAD workstations, but I've never actually seen one. A Google search reveals your machine has Dual Pentium Pro 200 MHz processors; that should be fun to play with! Windows NT 4 and 2000 have pretty decent native dual processor support. If you have a PC version of Photoshop, it might be interesting to benchmark.

Posted by: 30pin on 2007-06-01 20:50:25 I had an earlier model that had dual pentium 133's. It also had dual hardrives made by Connor. I overclocked it to run at 166mhz! It was my first dual cpu computer. It had a sony cd drive in it too. Same as what was in the early PowerMacs. You should be able to bump the cpu's to 233mhz.

Posted by: Unknown_K on 2007-06-01 21:25:47 I overclocked my old dual 200 ppros to 233 for a long time (untill I upgraded them to 333 PPro Overdrives), works fine.

Posted by: Unknown_K on 2007-06-04 15:55:48 Does it have the VRM installed for the 2nd processor? PPros make nice NT 4 machines. What video card is installed in there?

Does it have the VRM installed for the 2nd processor? PPros make nice NT 4 machines. What video card is installed in there? I'm not sure but it does have two metallic things about 2 inches long and about an inch high on the motherboard not far from the processors that look ominous. It has an Intergraph video card installed, but I can't identify which one it is. It has a plastic housing around it with a cover that comes off and there are two DIMM slots I assume are for additional video memory, but they are nothing like any DIMM slot I have ever seen before. There's way too many pins. Probably completely proprietary. There is also a daughterboard and it has two outputs. One for 3d and the other for 2d. It takes up 2 PCI slots and is a full length card. In device manager, it shows two video chipsets, one is a Realizm 2.0 and the other is a Cirrus Logic.

Dana There's a 27" Intergraph monitor on ebay now for $150.

Posted by: Unknown_K on 2007-06-04 19:30:04 Cirrus Logic would be the 2D chip for VGA. Can you take a picture of the video cards and the motherboard?
What are your plans for it? Is it currently in a running state?

Posted by: bluekatt on 2007-06-04 20:42:58 and cirrus logic tends to be the on board card

Dana I've actually seen a purple version of that tower case recently at the local flea market mall. The only thing preventing me from buying it is that the hard drive cage is missing. That particular one had a Pentuim II processor. A beige version that was there some time ago had P-II Xeon processors in it.
Geez that's a huge monitor!

Posted by: bluekatt on 2007-06-04 21:33:56 screw the hard drive cage buy it !
keep the hd in place with double sided tape if you have too

Posted by: Quadraman on 2007-06-05 12:08:25 My digital camera is being persnickety but the two video cards are MSMT259 Rev 0 which is the Cirrus Logic daughtercard and the main card is MSMT260 Rev C which I have gathered is the Realizm Z25. This thing has two cooling fans at the rear that blow through the plastic housing across the surface of both boards and out the rear of the machine. There is also a round port similar to an S-Video with the two VGA outs. I'd have to do too much disassembly to get a clear picture of the motherboard. The machine works now, so I don't want to tear it down on the chance that it may not work when I put it back together.
Here's a picture of a complete system I found that has a 410 standing on end like a tower. It really should sit flat, though. It is strong enough inside to support a huge monitor easily.

I found this pic of the video card disassembled. The large board is the Realizm Z25, the small one is the Cirrus Logic.

What kind of memory goes in those slots?
|
Posted by: Temetka on 2007-06-26 03:51:57 It looks like some form of SDRAM. More than likely PC66.

Posted by: TylerEss on 2007-06-26 21:12:43 PPro machines are my favorite PCs, just like cat feces is my favorite kind of feces. ;-)
I seem to recall intergraph machines being pretty fancy in the day; they even advertised in MacWorld, saying that their machines were good enough that they were worth considering instead of a Mac.
