i had, (still have teh dead motherboard), one. it worked a 
treat with the qnx development system it was shipped with.

being adventurious i also tried several freebsd boot diskettes 
and bootable cds in teh cdrom atached drive. no joy, it failed 
just after post, detected its own hardware, and then stoped 
when bootloader failed to find a cpu.

mine came with a diskette (from teh maufacturers in tiawan) 
with drivers fro the video and teh audio fro ms windows 95.

i have still teh mb's documentation.  

regards

jonathan
