I have an old Pentium 90 Mhz with Windows 95 loaded with the following BIOS/CHIP information on my motherboard:
BIOS Date: 11/16/94
BIOS Type: Award Modular BIOS v4.50G (with 2094 bug)
BIOS ID: 11/16/94--2A5KBH01-00

Chipset: ALi M1451 rev 189

More info:
On the motherboard I clearly see the following string:

But no manufacturer and no model of the MOBO.
The Chipset says Ali on the output, but both big chips on the motherboard states:

The BIOS chip label says:

On the BIOS chip itself says:

Given this information, I suppose is a PCchips motherboard.
I have tried for weeks to find out the model of this motherboard to get a BIOS upgrade with no luck!!
Just to mention, I´d like a BIOS upgrade as this computer is a year 2k compliant.
ANY help really appreciated.

Flash your BIOS at your own risk.
I think that I have the same board. It should be Socket 4 board (for early 5V P5 Pentium CPUs). Mine has FuguTech printed on all chips.
