I have found This AWARD ID- String : 05/25/99-ALi-154x-2A5KIB0BC-00, from
which it appears the Motherboard manufacturer is BIOSTAR - am I right?
The chipset is : ALi-154x / /ACER/ALI IV (M1531/1543)
How can I get the motherboard manual and other info. like mobo speed,
maximum size of SDRAM allowed etc from it?
Regards
Sanjoy
