Since this is a common issue, figured why not just have one topic where people can ID motherboards. Fire away!

Initially I thought that it was Silicon Star motherboard (PI4/PI4T PCI), but jumpers don't match 100%. I'm also aware that Soyo had the same design (SY-030G/H), but jumpers are different too.

Wim's BIOS says it's mf'd by Beyond.

Also would be a good idea when you can to include a picture of the underside of the motherboard.

No jumper config information unfortunately.

It doesn't have SATA ports (although, there are outlines for it). Close.

Thanks. Haven't seen or used a DFI board in years. I had a P5BV3+ Rev. B+ from 1999-2009 and it was amazing for a high end Super Socket 7 board (100MHz FSB, AGP 2X, and 768MB RAM maximum) and I updated the BIOS to the latest version to support the 80GB HDD I had.

Interesting thing is that DFI boards were also sold under the Canyon name.

For example,Canyon's 9I6PEA-L is actually a DFI PS83-BL (i865PE).

Hi, First time poster - I picked up a socket 7 board for a pentium 1 system recently and can't find any identifying marks on it, but it's a 430VX system, has a single USB header, CoaSt slot and both ISA/EDO and PCI/SIMM slots. Thankfully all the jumper settings are pretty clearly printed on the board. The only clue I've found is the holographic sticker which has a smiling sun character above some chinese characters, and the words "Acer" (although I haven't been able to match this layout to any other acer boards online) and "Amico" tiled behind it.
