Hello everyone,
is there anyone who could provide me with an BIOS image file of 386DX motherboard Soyo 019R1 (ALI 1429 AI & ALI M143)?
Or at least BIOS string...
thank you in advance for help,
best regards.

Do you have a pic of the board?

Ask, and ye shall receive:
The chipsets are ALI 1429 A1 and ALI M1431 A2, with an AMD 386DX40 soldered on, in the lower right corner.
This thread is the top google result, 🤣!
THIS is where I found the most info about the board. Even Mau1wurf1977 is in it! 😁
I struck out at MOBOT, and SOYO-Company (University of Latvia?).
This looks very similar to one I have in a system:

Other than the 386 being mounted on the left, and that co-processor mounted on the right, I believe it's the exact same board! It even has the 019R1 sticker. Could you hook the OP with a copy of the BIOS for it?
I will see what I can do, but I may get this done after I come back from vacation.

That's cool. Just PM jacques to let him know you may have the BIOS he needs, and that you'll get to it when you have a chance. I don't think he's checked the thread since the 9th.
Hi Guys and thank you very much for digging into this subject.
I've been on vacations for a couple of days and hasn't really followed, but now I'm back.
I'd be very grateful if someone could read and copy that board's BIOS into a file 😀
Bios String is: 40-0109-001102-00101111-0808093-ALI1429-F

I'll try and get the bios image cant guarantee when as the machine's floppy drive has been playing up.
I am still on vacation.
