There's no manual for this LEO branded board. Does any one have manual for this board or just instruction for jumper settings? Thanks.

I bought the bared, this 486 board expensioan slots are all 32bit wide, quite rare for the date.

The VGA and IO card are also LEO branded.

It's actually a FIC board:

There doesn't appear to be a manual available yet on TheRetroWeb, in addition to the jumper settings you would need the appropriate EISA configuration file and mod or replace the Dallas RTC chip that keeps both CMOS and EISA settings.

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
