Regression of PCem 12 - 430vx does not boot. Only two beeps and black screen.
On PCem 11 430vx boots ok with the same bios file.

Re: Regression of PCem 12 - 430vx does not boot
Do you have any idea what revision of PCem v12 you are using? The Award 430VX does work on the original release of PCem v12.
Since I don't have the later revision, I can't reproduce this issue.

Do the rest of the motherboards work?
Re: Regression of PCem 12 - 430vx does not boot
yes. Problem only with 430vx.

Re: Regression of PCem 12 - 430vx does not boot
I had similar issues the other day.
First I deleted the flash.bin file, but this did not work. Then I removed all HDDs, removed sound card, Voodoo, and I used a very basic VGA card and tried to select sensible defaults wherever possible.
After this I readded everything and it works flawlessly. I seemed to start working when I removed the SB16, but I am not 100% percent sure, and it works now with SB16.

Re: Regression of PCem 12 - 430vx does not boot
As PCem switched to strings it doesn't parse these numbers anymore.model = 39
gfxcard = 17
Change the 39 to 430vx
Re: Regression of PCem 12 - 430vx does not boot
But that changed after the v12 was released...
Re: Regression of PCem 12 - 430vx does not boot
But model numbers did get shifted in v12 because some models were added and some removed/commented out, so the Award 430VX PCI's number is most probably not 39 anymore.

Re: Regression of PCem 12 - 430vx does not boot
Indeed. This is what Jeditobe's config specifies under v12 :
Notice the lack of a CPU...Re: Regression of PCem 12 - 430vx does not boot
but for mee it looks like
No empty processor.
