I recently recieved an older computer(Pentium 75) from a friend and wanted to upgrade it to a faster chip. But, the people that built the damn thing didn't bother to silk screen jumper settings onto the motherboard. Since most motherboards hide who their manufacture for some reason can someone please tell me where to find a manual for the board or at least tell me a way of finding the manufacture without turning on the computer (Doesn't boot since someone has been stealing jumpers). Thanks.
