Mobo cop might help, belarc will give you some info also but neither will tell you what kind of mobo you have.

Unless of course your one of the few who have a real motherboard. I know dell does this sometimes. They use a real mobo instead of just the parts.

My HP has an asus mobo. CUV-NT something or other. No manual exists and the only reference to it ive ever seen is other people looking for the information.

OEM pc builders get a box full of chips and slots and assemble there own motherboards among other things. This is why the info is so hard to come by.
