Tried to attach them here and could not. .bin is not a permitted file type it seems. Threw them on my Proton Drive and made them public. Please let me know if the links work and when you have the files, so I can set them back to private. Links below.

I think you can upload zip files to posts, but no problem. I got the images

Let me know if you ever get any pictures of the mainboard or who the OEM is or what's up with that power connector.

Too large to attach and still too large zipped 🤣
Which power connector?
10-pin is from the PSU.
6-pin next to the IDE supplies power to the drives.
No idea who the OEM is.
ICYMI those are pictures are two different board revisions. Text blocks under the black heatsinks. One ends in .01m and the other in .021.
I flashed p10 to the .01m board and it worked fine, but wouldn't post with a core 2 duo installed.
I flashed p10 to the .021 board that I dumped p06 from and it works beautifully with a core 2 duo.
P06 is necessary to run core 2 duo processors, I think.
P10 seems to improve memory detection on both boards.
Well ,the mac is registered to gateway, so I guess the oem is gateway.
Thanks for the pics and notes.
edit I got a DM that suggested the part number is possibly Acer/Winstron
Much appreciated, sir. I'm hopeful that this will save others the headaches that I endured seeking an updated BIOS for this box.
