Hi guys, I'm having a hard time trying to identify the following motherboard. Any help is welcomed:
If the sticker on one of the chips is correct, the manufacturer is Soyo.
Thanks! Yep is SOYO, but I'm looking for the specific model.
Can't be that many Soyo socket 3 motherboards that had both PCI and VLB slots.
I'll see of I can track down something
This should be in Marvin.
030E2 is the model. That's the way Soyo marked their boards, black on a yellow sticker. I used to have 019R1, same sticker and pattern.
Thnaks a lot RacoonRider!
Does it work?
I personally have seen ~10 Soyo PCI/VLB mobos, none of them was working properly or at all.
Acer Helios Neo 16 | i7-13700HX | 64G DDR5 | RTX 4070M | 32" AOC 75Hz 2K IPS + 17" DEC CRT 1024x768 @ 85Hz
Win11 + Virtualization => Emudeck @consoles | pcem @DOS~Win95 | Virtualbox @Win98SE & softGPU | VMware @2K&XP | ΕΧΟDΟS
Soyo even back in the 90s didn't appear to acknowledge this board's existence. Every VIP board they have a manual for used the SiS 496/497 chipset and a different layout.
They had another VIP board, the SY-030A/B/C. The manual is also available online.
You are right about the 030E. No original scan of the manual obtainable.
Big bump but for good reason : there is a manual available online for this board actually 😀
It's just improperly named : https://arvutimuuseum.ee/th99/m/S-T/32376.htm
