Hi everyone!

I have an ECS P5GM-LG in working condition, BUT, I was trying to fit this MOBO in any case an was (almost) imposible.
Does anybody know where could this mother came?

I found all the information about this mother but nothing regarding in which/for pre-build machine was built in.

Not familiar with the board, but that's LPX form factor with PISA riser slot.

The board itself should fit in any LPX case, but the risers are notoriously non-standardized, so getting one that will both fit this board and whatever case you find could be the biggest challenge.

Looks like it came from a Packard Bell - Legend 266 or at least it will fit that case:

You sure about that? The only MediaGX board I'm aware of PB using was the 860, which is LPX with PISA, but the similarities end there - most importantly a completely different external connector layout.

No I am not sure, hence the wording. I see I forgot to put in "possibly".
