Hi,

I couple of weeks ago, I bought a 486 PCI motherboard.  Unfortunately I
received the motherboard without any documentation and the company which
sold it to me has now gone bust :-(  There are far too many jumpers on
this motherboard as it is (over 40!), and the lack of documentation is
likely to make it rather difficult for me to successfully set it up.

The motherboard does not have any recognisable brand name on it (its made
in Taiwan), but does have these distinguishing features:

	PCI and ISA slots.
	Model number SA486P A10 REV:1.0
	Phoenix BIOS (The EPROM has a label with "A93696" written on it)
	Built in IDE, Floppy, 2xSerial, Parallel, (and something else I
		can't identify, *long* IDC connector)
	Takes 4x72 pin SIMMs.

If anybody out there has the same motherboard (or at least the
documentation for it!) could they please let me know (email address as
below).

	Thanks in advance,

		Dale.
