Identify it at PC Chips Lottery http://go.to/th2 - in the "DON'T KNOW" section on the left.

I think an M590 with an early bios revision. One of these versions has a known bug of showing 570 instead of 590...

There are 3 December releases (all work fine) for the 8MB M590.
Do not use the 4MB version!

BIOS updates from http://ajz.web1000.com

Do you have the 12311998 file on all your sites ? > From the Wimsbios Link I see only 1209 and 1217 and the 99x one ?!?
Has the 99x Bios only problems with activating USB or other problems ,too ?

Yes, the "X" bios is the version with USB problems. Only recommendable if you are NEVER going to use any USB devices.

The difference among the 3 Dec. 1998 releases are minimal, and seem to be related to cosmetical issues only (as in the bus speed, CPU total speed display, etc.).

The 12/31 release was supposedly a special release for the Eurone OEMed M590 boards. Works too, no problem. I'll upload it soon.
