What's the mainboard model, board version, and BIOS version. Sometimes
the BIOS is dated instead of versioned.

The model and version will likely be on the board; the BIOS version
displayed in self-test-- look near where the CPU and memory are added.

With that info, you can check to see what features that BIOS has. Often
the maker's site will describe each version and what was added. Worst
case, ask in a comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware area. A mainboard one exists.
