I have a 2-year old 286 motherboard.  The only identification on it besides
the serial number (8900200) is the letters 'CTI'.  To the extent that the
case has a logo on it that says "Continental", I'm working under the 
assumption that the motherboard was manufactured by the same folks whose
name I assume to be Continential Technologies Incorporated (CTI).

The board currently has 4 256k SIPPs on it, and I am looking for information
about whether this motherboard was designed to use 1M SIPPs as well.  There
are some jumpers on the motherboard and I'd like to know what's what before
I invest some money in SIPPs that I may not be able to use.

In the same vein, I'd like to know what 'features' the motherboard has.  I
know that CTRL-ALT-+ and CTRL-ALT-MINUS are software ways to toggle between
Turbo/non-turbo modes (Actually, both key combs SEEM to do the same thing).

Ideally, I'd like to find a motherboard manual for this thing.

Additional info:  I bought this system from a company whose name I can no
longer remember in 1989.  I believe the company was located in NY-NJ area.

Any assistance from net-land would be VERY WELCOME.
