TopStar board with i815 chipset - they all have same BIOS ID, OEM ID is diiferent, this is from TM-815E:
09/07/2001-i815-W83627HF-6A69RTRDC-00
TM-815E VER:1.4 (2001.09.13)

BTW.: We can add new manufacturer code.

Looks like Totem is moving to OEM/ODM only then. Not listed on their site and I'm pretty sure they made them...

Weird: I have some Totem BIOSes that look like PC Chips boards (810LM11.BIN - M770 inside, 1631V31.BIN = M754LMR)

The other plausible story would be Topstar has always made the boards for Totem and Totem has switched to PC Chips, thereby forcing Topstar to do their own retail bussiness from now on.

If you look at the Totem product line it stops where the Topstar product line begins. Exactly there.

Exactly.

Another thing. Topstar has BIOSes for some ZIDA boards one Epox (TM-686ZX) and one Jamicon/Kaimei on its page. http://www.topstar1.com/html/driver_mb3.htm
