How do I tell what Intel motherboard I have when it's installed in a computer? (Source: Intel website)
When you turn on a computer that contains an Intel desktop board, you will see the BIOS identification string near the top left corner of the screen. If your computer displays the Intel® logo screen during system boot, you can bypass this screen by pressing the "Esc" key. This allows the display of the BIOS code.
Recent desktop boards manufactured by Intel use an Intel/AMI (American Megatrends) BIOS core. If you see another manufacturer's name in the BIOS area, then contact that manufacturer for support questions.
Intel BIOS for Desktop Boards
Recent Intel Desktop Boards use Intel/AMI BIOS patterns that looks like this:
MV85010A.86A.0011.P05
or
EV91510A.86A.0209
The characters BEFORE the first period indicate what desktop board you have. In the examples above, the "MV85010A" identifies the Intel® Desktop Board D850MV and the "EV91510A" identifies the Intel® Desktop Board D915GEV.
Important: The first TWO sections of the BIOS code you see on your computer must EXACTLY match the BIOS identifier codes for standard Intel® desktop boards. In this example, the "MV85010A" identifies the desktop board type, and the "86A" indicates it is a standard Intel version (86B, 86C, or 86E are also used on some older boards). If the first two sections do not match, then your desktop board was manufactured for a specific OEM. Please contact that manufacturer for help with your board.
