    Question Help identifying motherboard

    I'm trying to identify a motherboard of Taiwanese manufacture with model no SL586B or SLB-586B. Its an early Pentium up to 200MHz board. I'm trying to figure out where the jumpers are to set CPU voltage for STD/VR or VRE. It previously had a VRE type CPU installed and I now need to run a STD/VR type. Any help would be much appreciated.

    Just plug it in then - "VRE" spec just has a narrower voltage regulation window of 3.45 to 3.6V, while "STD" allows 3.16 to 3.6V. If a board produces VRE, that'll be within the required window for an STD type processor.

    Regards, Peter
