How do you check what version the MSC is on a Enterprise Edge 1000. The BCM software is version 2.03. I need to make sure the MSC is at least 1A in order to upgrade this box to 3.5. But how do you check what version the MSC is?

Look at the MSC Card itself, it should say 1A on one of the chips. Also, the motherboard is a good indicator. If the motherboard has colored I/O ports (front flap of the BCM), then the MSC should be a 1A as Nortel changed motherboards when they changed the MSC Card.

Let us know....

Thanks for the info. Looking at the MSC the Ports to the faceplate are black, but the 4 ports at the top of the card that connect back to the motherboard are blue. I wasn't able to find any chip with 1A on it. The part number on the board is NT5B15AAAH. What do you think?

No, the ports I am referring to are the COM1/COM2/PRINTER/VGA/SOUND CARD/GAME PORT on the motherboard itself not the MSC Card. And the 1A maybe on the MSC card edge itself.

You will need to make sure that you can upgrade to 3.5. First, to go from 2.03 to 3.5 the hard disk will have to be 19 gig. On 2.03 you are probably running an 8 gig hard drive.

You will need to upgrade 2.03 to 2.5 FP1. Then you need the upgrade kit (hard drive incl) to upgrade from 2.5 to 3.0 then upgrade to 3.5
