Title Problems with a VSBC-6 Single Board Computer.
Ref. No. QNX.000010379
Category(ies) Configuration
Issue We are having (generic) problems with a VSBC-6 Single Board Computer.  Is there any known issues with them running QNX?
Solution There is a known BIOS upgrade that fixed several BIOS conflicts that were resolved with BIOS release 4.1.105. Use VSBC-6 BIOS version 4.1.105 or later.  Make certain that you have upgraded the BIOS on the board as it fixed several problems.  At the time of this knowledge base entry (06/28/2001) the latest version of the BIOS was 4.3.114, which included the following updates:

      - Added IRQ6 into CMOS option items
      - COM3, COM4, and LPT1 can now be completely disabled.
      - Fixed third-party video problem.
      - A video board plugged into the PC/104-Plus stack will now become the system video resource.
      - Added BIOS extension feature.
      - Enables user to install their own BIOS extension into an empty 64K byte block of the BIOS Flash component.
      - Changed PCI IRQ routing to manual CMOS driven method.
      - IRQs can now be more efficiently allocated.
