Searching for Olivetti Motherboard Info/Manual, model BA2164

[Eld]

Hello, I've got an Olivetti motherboard model *BA2164* that has lost it's manual.

Here's some pictures of the board:





I've read these other related posts and was hoping someone may be able to find some information for me or send me a pdf that applies to my BA2164:

Also wondering: Is there a name for this motherboard form-factor and are there any case options aside from another similar Olivetti case?

Many thanks for any help! I'd like to research it before considering any restoration job

Hi, it looks lik it has a standard AT power supply connector. As for the form factor, I believe it is called LPX and you need to get a riser card for extending the number of slots (they will stack sideways).

And, you've got mail

Thank you! It looks like a match to me

I have the riser but unfortunately I discarded the case in a move, while keeping the mobo and riser for later analysis. The case was in pretty horrible condition but on reflection I probably could have restored it. But sadly, all I have left are these photos:





From what I could quickly gather about LPX, it's not a very firm standard... if anyone knows, please tell me if I would have any other options for cases for this mobo aside from another similar Olivetti or a custom-built one.

$130 and no power supply yet. They start to become rare I guess...

Yuo could try your luck on eBay I guess:

$80 still no power supply. First I found, there may be more...
