Hello everybody!

I've picked up a strange motherboard with lots of Headland chips and Siemens 80286-12 CPU. Graphic, IDE controler, Floppy controller and others are already integrated, only one expansion slot which looks like ISA but I think it was used as raiser card slot or something.

Had a little fun with it and connected a floppy and IDE to CF adapter with 32 MB CF card. After solving the problems with "HDD" geometry, CF was recognized as 30 MB HD and I've installed DOS 6.22 from Floppys. It's working like a charm - tested with Prince of Persia and Wolfenstein 3D.

Does anybody know the origin of this motherboard?
