as you can see, this board with sis496 chipset supports up to 1mb of cache, but with a very old type of barrel battery.

It looks as though you're not the first to try to figure out who made this board: see Vegge's post.
So maybe it's an Abit PI4?

those cache chips are really suspicious looking... either clones or fake IMHO - not to be trusted in any case

true but i don't care much as they are only 128kb total even if they are real, and i ain't going to use them anyway.

I have this board, unfortunately I'm still unsure who manufactured it exactly.

There's ABIT, Soyo, Silicon Star and Cthulhu knows what else. All have slightly different jumpers which don't match.

Does it post ? If so can you show a clear picture of the first screen the computer displays (where the ram is counted)
