Heyho,

I am looking for the name and a manual for a board so that I can have a look into the pin layout. I think I can make it work without that, but I want to transplant it into a different case, and that one has a turbo button and I'd like to check if I can connect it to something.

Specifications:
Socket 7
AGP Onboard Sound SIS530
Also a Chip called SIS 5595
Soundchip OUN Pro HT8338
AMIBIOS
2 ISA slots
3 PCI Slots

Now I did find "similar" boards already. But they differ quite a bit and also have less pins.
Namely PCChips M598, which only has 1 ISA Slot and also not the pins in the corner opposite of the bottom ISA slot
PM-598 - AMPTRON, also looks similar, but got the BIOS chip in a different place, and the pins in the corner are also not there.

Looks like the PCChips M598LR/LMR

Excellent, thanks. Even there they ignore the pins. So I guess they do not have any relevant function.

I think the M598 with 2 ISA slot manual is this one, not the one listed at https://www.ultimateretro.net/en/motherboards/6189#downloads,
This one has 2 ISA slot with Floppy header in same place. It also does not explain that header if I read it correctly.

Hate posting a reply and then have to edit it because it made no sense 😁 First computer was an IBM 3270 workstation with CGA monitor. Stuff: https://archive.org/details/@horun
