Recently I was Searching Drivers for PIG31U motherboard and I was shocked that mercury-pc.com domain was saled in domain auction to name bright. somehow i managed to download drivers from 3rd party sources. But the saddest part official website is no longer available from Sunday, August 15, 2021 at 12:34 AM.

The (relative) good news is that since brands like Mercury, Zebronics don't design their own products, it's often easy to find identical boards by other localized brands of other countries and get drivers/bios updates from those places.

Finally Mercury got independence on our independence day hence the site went down and so the support when the clock struck 12 and date change to 15th Aug!
Anyway, who even uses these crap xvfm mobos these days? Their era was almost a decade ago!

The naming was from their older format denoting "Processor Intel" G31 Chipset. A "Processor VIA" CLE266 was one my favourite low power boards for m0n0wall back in those days, installed inside an XBOX 360 replacement shell.

Drivers are available at archive.org for most of their motherboards: https://web.archive.org/web/*/mercury-pc.com/* You can search by model number at the top right of the list.
