No brand names anywhere? Might be a proprietary board of some kind.
It may help to type the numbers into DogPile or Google and see what comes up.

Good luck.

Is it just a board? If so, googling any numbers you can find is your best bet.

If it's a working system (or if you can make it a working system), you can boot it and run CPU-Z for some possible motherboard information.

Have you tried the benchmarking software below? Free download and gives good information.

Just try AIDA32, it will give you a hell of information about the motherboard.

take the BIOS identfication string and google for it

If your rig is internet capable, go to this site and you can get just about every bit of info you want, both hardware and software.

Also available at the CPU-Z site is a program called PC Wizard that will provide a ton of info as well.

Either one (or both combined) will give you everything you're looking for, plus a whole lot more.
