Wierd. When the PC first boots up, see if you can catch the mobo model from the bios screen. Some have it some don't. I always have to hit the Pause/Break key and do it several times to catch the timing, hopefully its easier for you... (my old CRTs take a few seconds to warm up) Or, pull the side panel and look on the mobo itself (definitely printed there... wait, not definitely on some ultra-cheapies, but ECS & Gigabyte both do).

I actually tried when I moved the mobo to find the model # printed on the mobo, but couldn't find it.

I had them pre-assemble the system, but the mobo box they sent says Gigabyte. The receipt says ECS.

Overall, I'm under-impressted with portatech.com and don't think I'll do business with them.
