I need the guys in Europe to help me locate a Siemens MB
I need to find a very particular old Siemens pentium MB and I can't locate a source. They do NOT have to be new but simply working used boards.
Motherboard is a PCI pentium 90 (I think it is) MB called a Siemens “D842”.
Can send a manual to compare componet layout etc if anyone can get close. trying to find Siemen boards in the states is like nailing jelly to a tree but understand they are much more common in Europe. These are sorry slow old boards and you may even find them being used as boat anchors on small sea going vessels. If they are not damaged even a boat anchor may work. (grin) Don't ask why.. It's a long sad story of a friend caught in a jam that needs this exact board to replace one in a propriatary software system and we need that exact make and model to make it fly. Will make it worth your while if you find me one.

Apparently it's the OEM version of the Acer PI16 (see http://www.motherboards.org/mobocop/view/unsolved/9271.html); maybe that would be easier to find, and if they're the same board, it should work...
I know they say the UK is about 10 years behind the U.S Tex, but I think you're pushing it with this one.;)
