I don't know about the motherboard (maybe MP tables?), but as for the vid card, you must enumerate the PCI bus and in the PCI device header you will get the device ID which you need to test against a list of known IDs.

MultiProcessor

look at the Intel Multiboot specification (and some recent threads) for how to enumerate it. I don't think it has any MOBO information on it though.

maybe try looking at an open-source BIOS?
