The best way is to see what mother board you have is to look at the BIOS ID string when you turn on your computer...Award is the most common bios used so go to this link http://www.phoenix.com/en/customer+services/bios/awardbios/motherboard.htm and match up your BIOS to one listed and it will give you the maker of it.

Are you wondering what type of motherboard you have?
