I found this old motherboard, it's for an AMD 700 and there's like absolutely no markings on it whatsoever. The one number I did find on it led to nothing on google.

It looks like a Shuttle Spacewalker AI61. I think that model was Shuttle's only slot A motherboard.

Thank you very much! I was hoping to find drivers/manuals for it but without even a manufacturer name I came up clueless.

I did just try the board this evening and it appears dead, at least with the AMD processor in it, there's no video output of any kind, even changed the ram out and video card.

I'm still gonna look up a manual on shuttle's website. Thanks so very much guy!

Update***

Apparently there's no hope of legacy motherboard support on Shuttle's site Sad

Oh well at least I can harvest the caps and other random IC parts for future use on good motherboards.

I am not surprised that you could not find any bios or drives for this board. It has to be close to 10 years old at this point.

If my memory serves me correctly it is based upon the AMD 751 chipset which supports PC-100/133 and AGP 1x.

was only thinking of keeping it for a test board for slot A processors, but i prefer a board that i can get manual & drivers for Very Happy

think i read it takes up to AGP 2x... wow lol

I would not be concerned about the drivers as much as I would be for the BIOS. Win XP should have the necessary drivers and you might be able to find the chipset drivers at AMD's site.

It still would be a good testing board.

133 for memory? Well that's about all that it needs, the agp isn't that important if it's gonna be a headless machine or such. Unfortunately, this one will not provide any video output or anything, so it much be pouched.
