DTK Computer Peer 1630 PC (with upgrades)

Here's another rescued, revived and (eventually) restored computer. This was originally a DTK Computer Peer 1630 personal computer with a 386SX-16 microprocessor on a DTK motherboard. It appears to have been built in 1991. Around 1993, someone replaced the motherboard with one having a faster Am386SX processor clocked at 40MHz. I suspect they were going for a cheap performance boost.
The Am386SX processor has all the limitations of the Intel 386SX (16MB RAM limit, 16/24 bit data/address bus, needing two external 16-bit cycles for one 32-bit operation) with a faster clock speed. Despite the "hampered" design, it still would have given somewhat improved performance.
I've found evidence that suggests the replacement motherboard was offered in various speeds. A 33MHz version also exists. Surprisingly, considering that the CPU is soldered, the clock crystal is socketed.
DTK Computer produced motherboards, various expansion cards, desktop PCs and servers from the beginnings of the PC clone era all the way up to the Pentium 4. They're still around in some capacity, though I have no idea if they still make computers or not. Interestingly, the local library has a few other DTK systems, including an early Pentium machine that is still in use at the front desk.
This computer's FCC ID number is F82-5K4PEER1630, granted in late 1989. Identifying numbers on the motherboard include TK83305P9 and TK83305P9-4N-D-02. Neither one produces too many results in a web search.
Remember: If you care about your old computers, make sure none of them have a potentially bad and leaky NiCad CMOS battery in place! Remove it before it harms your old computer. Also consider removing button cell batteries from old computers, or replacing them with new ones. Though it is a lot less likely, I have definitely seen dead or damaged button cell batteries leak and make a mess in old computers.

At work our computer admin at the time supplied us with dtk's. From xt clones to the early 386 era. Back then computers were really expensive. Especially the IBM's, hence the popularity of the dtk. They worked well for us and were solid reliable. Seeing this brings back memories. I have forgotton a lot about the early computers now since it has been so long. Amazing how well you remember so much about them. You must play around with this old stuff fairly often.

I would bet that multifunction board was made by DTK as well. The Oak VGA board may not be fancy enough to support CGA/EGA and Hercules output; many early VGA cards simply offered the 9-pin output as a way to connect an already-VGA-capable Multisync monitor (as likely previously used with EGA) without needing to buy a new 9-pin-to-15-pin cable. And it's been a long time since I've seen that text-only AMI BIOS screen! The only 386 clone I have left has Phoenix BIOS.

I had this computer. Bought it in 1991 with 1 mb of ram. Don't remember the price but I upgraded hard drive to 170 Mb for - imagine this - $1,200. (that price I do remember)! I think it maxed out at 5 mb of ram on the motherboard at about $150 a megabyte. Wow. I don't remember how ram I upgraded it to in the end! Thank for the post!!!!

My mom and dad used to work in DTK at Taiwan, this computer might be one of the computers shipped from Taiwan at the golden age of computer manufacturing in 1990's. But now the status is replaced by China. DTK still making computers now, but the tranditional Chinese website stopped update at 2000, and you can still see the old stuff still selling online, but I think it just for a memorial of the golden age. www.dtk.com.tw/cindex.html

Micronics was a separate company from Micron. Diamond bought them out in 1998 or so. DTK used to be big around here, They had an office in NJ and likely built machines here as a lot of schools used them (they had a state contract). They went out of business years ago, its likely whatever company that is doing business under that marque, purchased the name or was a former division. The unused pads around the CPU are for a PGA socket.

They all have the 3 horizontal 5.25 bays and two vertical 3.5 bays. It was a nice computer, the one I owned, it had alot of room for expansion.

No offense intended Bill, just noting a bunch of comments unrelated to the content so I made an observation related to my experience with former smokers. I like the vid. Boy did it ever bring back the days when you had to define your drive parameters in the bios. I noticed the empty math co-processor socket. My first PC was a Tandy 386SX. My first build was a 5x86 Cyrix based PC, 133 MHZ with a huge amount of RAM, 12MB! DOS 6.2, I ran X-Wing out of a RAM disk on it. Been hooked ever since.

Yuck, few things are nastier to a computer than smoking. Funnily enough, the reset button my my 386DX sticks as well... in fact I had to stick a piece of tape to the button and pull on it to pop it back out. Fortunately ctrl-alt-del works well enough most of the time. I've got to solder together a battery solution on that machine as well; I'm going the CR2032 battery holder route. Those barrel batteries are a menace; luckily I got to it before it caused any damage. Anyways excellent video!

@uxwbill
@uxwbill 2 жыл бұрын
There's always that possibility, although I would expect that you would still see the various startup messages produced by the computer before it is ready to use. Most monitors will also complain if their capabilities are being exceeded. In case you are not already, I would recommend using a monitor that has an actual analog VGA input. (The typical converters for VGA to HDMI, DisplayPort, or whatever don't actually work all that well.) My guess is that the computer isn't actually managing to start up. You can find this out fairly easily by removing the video card from the computer (assuming it's not built in -- then it gets harder). This should provoke a set of beep code errors from the internal speaker when you turn it on, if it is running. My longstanding recommendation would be to carefully disassemble the computer, look for any damage (especially around any clock battery you may see), and if everything looks OK, carefully clean excessive dust away, after which you should reseat everything. If you have a meter capable of measuring DC voltage, you could also check the power supply. At a minimum, it should be outputting approximately five and twelve volts DC. If it isn't, that's likely the problem.

That beep, if it's coming from the system speaker, is probably a good sign. If it were me, I'd clean the system up first (blow the dust out, if there is any) and reseat all the expansion cards. That may be all it takes. Beyond that, it'll take some troubleshooting. Simplify the system configuration as much as you can. If it works with the bare minimum configuration, add one piece back at a time and test it. When it fails, you've found the problem. The Dallas modules do run out of battery power, but as the battery is totally sealed in potting compound, it doesn't leak. It also helps that the battery is not a rechargeable type. You can carefully cut those modules open, disconnect the battery and solder in an externally located one. It's not for the faint of heart or inexperienced, though.

The pc was on its side for years and looks like rats got in there and did their business. This did not make a difference on the video issue. The one beep is still chiming on startup though. I dont know if I should try a different video card or not since I cant locate a cga monitor for sale anywhere. It's a shame really.

Hopefully you'll have a breakthrough and it'll come back to life. I would definitely simplify the configuration as much as possible, maybe consider removing everything but the motherboard and video card? Anything that looks as though it has been damaged should definitely be removed, as it may damage other parts of the computer. Hopefully that hasn't already happened. Assuming "CGA" isn't a typo, you won't want to use a CGA video card or monitor. It would be an enormous step backwards in that computer's graphics capabilities and any software that operates in a graphics mode would probably need to be reconfigured. Windows 3.1 in particular did not ship with a CGA driver -- it was an optional download from Microsoft's BBS at the time.

Guy's almost as bad as Tony Randall and Larry Hagman were about the "tobacco" thing. Nothing more "holier than thou" than a former smoker. Did somebody count how many times he mentioned the evil weed? ROTFLMAO! Fun vid otherwise. Cool way back machine of the old 386 days.

I have a 286 I put together many many years ago that has a DTK NEAT 286 motherboard in it. Check the vid on my channel out if your curious. ;-) I recently upgraded the CPU from a 16 MHz to a 20 MHz Harris 286 CPU.
