That type of information is next to impossible to find. Wheter due to competition or propriety issues. According to a friend who is involved with one of the major names, depending on the design & due to sheer complexity of multilayer designs, almost all are kept in CAD/CAM file formats & rarely printed on paper.

Just about all you may be able to find is basic block diagrams.

Yes perhaps, but even the chipset manufacturers don't give their schematics, I tried SIS, and ... nothing !!

Check out which chipset is used on the motherboard, and then look at the chipset manufacturer's application notes and reference design. Usually the motherboard manufacturers use the reference design almost unchanged, even the reference designations of components is the same!

I think, in many cases the motherboard manufacturer doesn't even have to draw up an own schematic diagram, he will just use the netlist and BOM from the reference design to do his PCB layout.
