I hope I haven't posted this yet. I have trouble finding the correct jumper settings for this board or any info on this particual model. Any help is appreciated.

I might be wrong, but looking at the oscillators (silver square things above the SIMM slots on the first photo) I don't think it has any usual jumpers for setting the FSB speed/clock multiplicator. I think the frequency is set through changing the oscillators — the way it was done on most 386 boards. So all the jumpers on the top left corner on the first photo are probably just front panel headers like PC speaker, turbo switch and so on.

There probably should be a jumper to switch between SX/DX (enabling the FPU part), though — just in case you want to switch your 486SX33 for 486DX33.

Yes, that's what I was looking for, or if there was something for the different amounts of cache chips installed. But I did progress into booting it with a DX processor, so it seems to work fine so far.
