Wizard assistance needed, please.

I am confused as to whether or not we truly have "Intel" motherboards
(plural because we have 60 of them in service).

Is the following an Intel board or not? 06/21/96 i430VX 2A59Ht5BC-00

If it is, why can't Intel's "Product Lookup" find it?

Thank you!

No, it is not an Intel product. The chipset is, but the board
came from one of the PCChips morass:

2A59Ht5BC-00: PCCHIPS Manufacturing Limited (Fugutech) M520 or M525 or
Elpina - Amptron PM7900 orMG Microgram (model:??) or
PM-8815A VX-PCI Board or ALTON Aries + or Elpina Topsearch
TS-M-8VOC or ASEAGATE VXor Amptron PM-8800 or Concord
COA-520 or Pine PT-7502 or EL-J19 or Eurone EM-5100V or Amptron
PM8900
You don't know which one to choose ? Then take this
advice: Go to all the companies websites and compare specs, pictures,
manuals with your board. It is possible that some of the
above models are the SAME board but I can't garantuee you that a BIOS
from another brand will work on your board.
These boards are real cheap so you'll have to live with
less support then a brand like e.g. Abit, Shuttle, Asus,...

To find out if you have a true Intel-manufactured M-board,
go to www.support.intel.com/support/motherboards/bios.htm

This should help.
