well ... as for the mainboard ... found 2 VIA chips (VT82C597AT and VT82C586B) don't know anything else about the mainboard, the processor is "CPU: Cyrix 6x86MX (167.05-MHz 686-class CPU)", has 128MB of RAM
Unfortunately, many Cyrix-based systems from this era are questionable -- they apparently played fast and loose with the specs, resulting in a lot of memory corruption errors.
If you have access to one and have a bit of time to kill, try moving everything over to a similar Pentium or K6-2/3 system and see if the problems go away.
