• The VXPRO chipset is a relabeled VIA Apollo VP-1 chipset.
• You can identify the VXPRO by looking at the Award BIOS Number: 2A5LAH09C
• The BIOS number also reveals the real name of the chipset: 2A5LA stands for a VIA Appollo VP-1 chipset.
• H0 stands for Hsing Tech/PcChips
• Because it's a VIA chipset you can use the latest VIA Busmastering drivers. (see bmdrivers[dot]com)
• You can find BIOS updates at the PcChips website. The model to choose is M537 (don't choose M537DMA33 !!)
• Note that this board is also being sold under the following names: Sybercom MB537, Ability (model: ???), Protac MB5370, Eurone/Matsonic (model: ???), Aristo (model: ???), Houston Technologies M537, PCWare (Alton). THESE BOARDS ARE IDENTICAL TO THE PCCHIPS M537 !!
• This motherboard is very very similar to the V5.2A motherboard, the only difference is that this motherboard uses the VxPro chipset and the V5.2A uses the VxPro+ chipset that allows a slightly faster bus speed.
