So, using the "Award BIOS IDs" link on the homepage, that works out as:
2A59G - Intel Triton VX chipset (Socket 7 based m/b)
G3 -
Gemlight
which suggests you try
Hongfaith where it says you have to register - but go to
the BIOS page and search for 2A59GG39 to look at the files they list first.
BTW, moderators, the hongfaith link needs updating.

PAM-0070I(2A59GG39)
is a DTK model number, Gemlight was the retail outlet for DTK.

Use the "Select Award bios ID" and you will see what I mean...

The three 56I Ex BIOSes are identical (56i112.zip).
Differences:
56i112:
01/13/2000-i430VX-W877-2A59GG39C-00
(2A59GG39) DTKPAM0056I.P02.01.12-V1.12
70i112:
01/13/2000-i430VX-W877-2A59GG39C-00
(2A59GG39) DTKPAM0070I.P02.01.12-V1.12
You should be able to see the DTKPAM00xxI.xxxx on the same screen where you found the BIOS ID string. Check that.
