Hi Everybody!
It's me again, trying to resurrect some old junk.
I recently came by an old 486 board with PCI slots and was trying to find any useful information on it.
There is a warranty tag with the name Mitsuba on top. The circuit board itself is marked Lite On 20V0 REV:B01.
I know it's not much to go on, I haven't been having the greatest luck so far myself.
Any help would be appreciated. :)
I found this: <a href="http://www.peteweb.com/archive/messages_Nov30-2000/2369.html" target="_blank">http://www.peteweb.com/archive/messages_Nov30-2000/2369.html</a>
Looks like your board is likely a GVC FR520 board.

May be I'm wrong here, though...
Zerotech, is it possible to get BIOS ID string from that motherboard, if yes, please post it here.
Beside that, You can run hwinfo utility from <a href="http://www.hwinfo.com" target="_blank">www.hwinfo.com</a> , and identify Your motherboard.
If no, could You post picture of that motherboard here?
Update:
Just did search for GVC FR520 board - it's really socket7 motherboard. :)
But I've got too many links using words "Mitsuba motherboard" - looks like Mitsuba is really manufacturer of Your motherboard (or at least big reseller - in some links I found, what they were ordering some boards from BCM Computer company - it's another big manufacturer of motherboards).
I knew Ruslan would have some ideas. :)
I have to dig out some parts to make it bootable, I'll post back with the string and hwinfo results.
Thanks for the suggestions. :)
