Do you have a pic of the board?

Ask, and ye shall receive:

The chipsets are ALI 1429 A1 and ALI M1431 A2, with an AMD 386DX40 soldered on, in the lower right corner.

This thread is the top google result, 🤣!

THIS is where I found the most info about the board. Even Mau1wurf1977 is in it! 😁

I struck out at MOBOT, and SOYO-Company (University of Latvia?).

This looks very similar to one I have in a system:

Other than the 386 being mounted on the left, and that co-processor mounted on the right, I believe it's the exact same board! It even has the 019R1 sticker. Could you hook the OP with a copy of the BIOS for it?

I will see what I can do, but I may get this done after I come back from vacation.

That's cool. Just PM jacques to let him know you may have the BIOS he needs, and that you'll get to it when you have a chance. I don't think he's checked the thread since the 9th.

Hi Guys and thank you very much for digging into this subject.
I've been on vacations for a couple of days and hasn't really followed, but now I'm back.

I'd be very grateful if someone could read and copy that board's BIOS into a file 😀

Bios String is: 40-0109-001102-00101111-0808093-ALI1429-F

I'll try and get the bios image cant guarantee when as the machine's floppy drive has been playing up.

I am still on vacation.

Thanks to elianda looks like now I have the proper BIOS image file for Soyo 019R1.
Thank you Guys, I'll post an update when I have that motherboard re-born 😀
