I've got an HP Pavilion 4535 that I've pulled all of the innards
out of. Motherboard is a "MEW-VM rev 1.02". My research shows that
this is likely an Asus OEM board made specifically for HP to use in a
number of their small tower configurations. There are a number of
hookups and various items that are just "screen printed" on the
mboard and not actually implemented, which leads me to believe that
this was the basis for a lot of different configurations HP used over
a year or so. Unfortunately, the fact that it is OEM also means that
I can't find a motherboard manual anywhere at ASUS or at HP. This
means I am left to go by clues on the motherboard itself.
After removing it from the PC and getting a closer look, here is
what I saw:

I would have used a photo, but unfortunately my digital camera
won't focus up that close, so I had to do a drawing. Obviously, I'm
not a talented artist, but I hope the rendering gets the point across.
The board is socket 370, and the system came with a Celeron 400 MHz
processor installed. BIOS chip is the plcc32 type, & says "MWVM4
1.00".
Here's what I need to figure out:
1) highest clock multiplier this will support (I ran sandra & some
other utilities that will normally tell me this info about the
motherboard, but they did not display it this time for some reason)
2) I'm having trouble figuring out the jumpers for the front side bus
settings
I'm at a complete impasse regarding the clock multiplier question,
and have no idea what else to try to figure it out.
As far as the FSB settings, take a look at my drawing. Anybody
have any idea what the "X" setting is? The screen print on the board
shows settings for 66 MHz, 100 MHz, 133 MHz, and "X". I've never
seen this "X" before, and am left wondering what the heck it is.
I think the board is an i810 type which means it will probably handle PIII
100MHz fsb cpus. The jumpers almost certainly don't do anything at all for
the cpu - fsb for the cpu is probably set automatically when the cpu type is
identified during boot (assuming it can deliver anything above 66mhz for the
cpu.). The jumpers may be to set memory speed independent of the cpu. The
"x" setting simply means it won't boot if the jumpers are set this way.
