Better pic would help (top of board cutoff, no pic of solderside)

It looks like a Unisys or Packard Bell board to me.

I think it's a Compaq but I'm not sure.
Currently not working. When I first connected it to a PSU about all the orange caps sent crazy and created a little magic fog. It has been laying around since. Haven't found the time to replace the caps... Maybe won't fit the next few years as well; so many projects and my family need attention as well :p

When it's identified I'm gonna send the full res pic to theretroweb of course

Seems to be from an IBM offshoot...the Ambra Sprinta (386SX) - Anyone got an Ambra Sprinta 386 Motherboard Manual?

Definitely not Compaq.
it should have a 123456-001 Spare Part No if its Compaq and probably some funny pictures on the PCB.
The Deskpro 386/s being Compaqs base 386sx model at this era did not use SIMM modules yet but proprietary square memory modules.

Not sure if the Ambras used an IBM FRU number on their parts like anything else distributed by IBM?
Digital equipment did some LPX too and these barcode stickers are typical for intel.

My board does look like the Ambra board in your link! Seems to be the one 😁

About the pic being a bit low res and cut off: the original is about 5MB so can't post it directly here. Had to save a printscreen and upload that here. I'm going to send the original over to theretroweb, so it'll be available for everybody.

And it is added to theretroweb!

Thanks to all!
