AMI BIOS tag is: 40-0001-001256-xxxxxxxxxxxx

This mobo is similar to the Gigabyte GA-486VC but the jumper locations and names are a bit different. I only get one hit searching on Google - an old post from somebody asking the same question 😜

I'm building the Ultimate 1994 Demo Scene Machine. Specs so far:

* i486DX2/66 * 32 Mb FPM 2-1-1-1/0 WS RAM * Cirrus Logic 5428 VLB 1 Mb (suggestions?)
* Maxtor uMAX II 6 Gb HDD * 3Com 3C509B * SB Pro 16 * GUS Max 1 Mb

Have you tried eyeballing all the pictures at stason.org? I found my 486 jumper settings on there eventually, it has an awful lot of boards there.

After Googling on my motherboard that's exactly where I ended up and decided going through all pictures. Guess what! I found it! Turns out it's not a Lucky Star (although the BIOS tag says so) but a Pine Technology. I almost gave up on Bek-Tronic which is identical but different jumper setup, but I finally made it all the way to P 😁

Big thanks for the tip though, as it would have led me there eventually. You guys rock! 😀
