Find me a motherboard please 2

[jamesbird]

I'm looking to build a test PC to allow me to interchange bits from PCs I'm trying to debug, and therefore need the strangest MB you've seen:
IDE and an ISA slot
168 and 184 pin RAM slots
something more than a GHz of processor speed
Does anyone know if such a beast existed?
I'd be very glad of a model member to search for on eBay.
Thanks and all the best
James

Spend some time Googling, you'll find something.

The requirement for ISA and 1000+ CPU (which is late Pentium 3 era)are going to the hardest parts to find. Very few (if any) motherboards supported both of those.

Example boards can be found here:

You have a slight miss match of time zones with your requirements.
ISA missed the Transision from PC133 to PC2100DDR by around 2 years.
So there are a few boards with both 168 and 184 pin slots but they are all a tad too new to have an ISA slot.

Why not get two motherboards? Since this is for testing you can buy cheap boards ($30 or so) and use the one that matches the hardware you want to test.

Thanks everyone - it wasn't ment to be easy! Don't know that I'm going to be able to do it in one motherboard - shame cos it would make a usefull bit of kit. I guess in reality the only ISE stuff I test these days are the odd SCSI or strange data capture card, which best case must be 5 years old anyway - time to be brave and source the customer a new bit of kit.
So I'll probably opt for a Elite board (thanks paparazi).
Thanks again all - all usefull stuf.
All the best
