Hi,

I have a motherboard with 6A69MC3AC-00

According to wim website, it is a I810mb from chaintech.
it's come with a celeron. bios seems to be customised with continental logo.

I hope with your help to find right model, in order to flash-it

award bios 6.00PG
09/062000-I810-PC87366-6A69MC3AC-00

Thanks,
Dan

Any helpful markings on the board, e.g. CT-6WEX, CT-6WIV-F100A or CT-6WIV-F120A ?
What result do you get when you run BIOS Agent ?

Usually Chaintech mainboards have a small sticker with model number and other Infos residing on th Bios Flashrom - model number should start with CT-6xxx

Look for a small white sticker or a model number written directly onto the Board

Looks like the original bios chip with the info has been replaced by one from a more generic board. That was the last bit of useable info on a chaintech board. We going to need a picture and some luck...

A check through Edwin's Chaintech IDs for I810-PC87366-6A69MC3AC-00 gives a match only for the 6WIV and 6WIVL. 6WIV0 and 6WIVL share the same 07/12/1999 BIOS at the Chaintech site. Maybe 6WIV=6WIV0, Edwin ? Chaintech lists later BIOSes for 6WIV0-D, -E, -F and -G as well as a later BIOS with GVC logo for 6WIV0.

Do you have any information about Continental (you said there's a logo)?

There's no BIOS for 6WIVx matching the date on this board.

Is there any Version or Rev shown on the board anywhere ?
