Yes, I've downloaded the STe schematics from this site, but it was
rather fuzzy, and the writing was hard to make out.

Yup, sounds about right as the text in the schematic looked like PC-800
or PC-900. As Peter Ullrich also pointed out that it's a PC-900 and
someone else (with yet a different source) said the same thing it's
settled.

Well, the one on the board wasn't a PC-900 as I've pointed out, but
must of course be a compatible, so that's good enough for me as I just
wanted to know the pinouts anyway (and I have the data for the PC-900
here).

Thanks everybody!
