DSP Design SB6TSL

I found this board on a flea market several years ago, probably around 2020 IIRC, it was sealed on a bag, but it was missing the CF card, for what i can find online this is for a Thermo Fisher Scientific Richard-Allan lab device, i uploaded some photos of the device i think it was used, the port configuration fits the ones on this card.

Running linux on this card works fine, obviously old linux, also windows 95 boots but i can't really find drivers yet, i think this an XP era device so drivers will be probably just for XP, maybe 2K.
