If you could tell us a manufacture, model number, or even an fcc id, we'd be able to help you...
it's Genoa Systems
as much info as you have would be a big help. just post everything you know about the board and there's a good chance someone will be able to help.
Genoa Systems seems to have died
here is a list of models I found - can you match them to your board? Look between the pci slots:
TurboExpress 586F56/F60
TurboExpress 586F52 or P200 I/O
TurboExpress 586FX-61/61PB
TurboExpress 586HX-62PB
TurboExpress 586VX-63T
TurboExpress 586VX-63PB
TurboExpress 586VX-AI5TV
TurboExpress 586VX
TurboExpress 586VX PRO
TurboExpress 586TX ATX
TurboExpress 586TX AT
TurboExpress 586TX-LC AT
TurboExpress 586TX-LC ATX
TurboExpress PII AGP-LX
hope this helps
thanks for your help but i am sure it is a 486 because the cpu is 66 mhz. the motherboard has 8 simm slots, 5 pci and 3 isa. the cpu is in the lower left hand corner
and has ami bios.
He's right! It's a Genoa!Quote:

40-0100-006156-00101111-080893-SIS461-P
is a TurboExpress 486VL. I hope this helps!
I couldn't find a Manual or a website for this board or company.
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP, YOU COULDN'T FIND A WEBSITE BECAUSE THE COMPANY DIED. IT WAS ORIGINALLY WWW.GENOASYS.COM AND IT DOESN'T WORK
Google dragged up this site - its a german one, but at the bottom there is some stuff for the 486 Genoa Stuff
And here is a nice swedish person with some info on jumpers
and here is his home page
He says email him and he will find the english version for you...
Have fun :D

i think it might be the first one, although my motherboard has a total of eight slots to put stuff in. thanks a lot.
8 slots for what? What do You mean saying 8 slots (ISA + VESA = 8)?Quote:

or 8 slots for 30-pin memory?
isa + vesa=8
And how about rest? :) SIMM 30-pin or 72-pin and number of slots,number of VESA slots? ;)Quote:

Did you try downloading manuals Noo Too mentioned?
i don't know if they are 72 or 30 pin. there are 8 simm slots. the first site doesn't have the right motherboard and the others don't have the right info
Tell you what Dustin, why don't you take a picture of that motherboard and post it here, then Ruslan can tell you what you need to do. At least that way we will get a straight answer to a straight question!
how do you add a picture?
Check Your mail box - I e-mailed letter to You yesterday...
on a jumper, what is open and what is closed?
