Hello Everyone.

My brother in law has a Pentium 75 machine he needs to upgrade. It's a
socket 5 motherboard. Can it support a P133 or P166? I don't know the
manufacturer but the Award BIOS screen at the bottom says 10-12-95
VT82C570-2A5L7F0HC-00.  I know that one of these numbers is the board
manufacturer...can anyone tell me which one or where I can look it up?

Also, it has 6 SIMM slots but only one 8MB SIMM installed. The other 5 slots
are empty. I thought Pentiums had to have SIMMS installed in pairs. It boots
up fine into Win 3.1.

Thanks for all your help.
