I have not seen this particular board before, but it looks to have the correct number of chips to be a "Happy 1050" clone.

Probably a Lazer or Hyperdrive 'happy clone'

Ditto on the above. Try it with the Happy 7.1 software.

 

If it recognizes it as a happy but in the happy backup it reports all tracks as 'unreadable' then its an older happy clone.

Steve...There is a slight problem with using later versions of the happy software with lazer/hyperdrive clone's as some of the programs won't operate properly...especially the diagnostics program and the tracer program

 

There is a version of the happy software written or patched specifically to work on hyperdrive/lazer clones (i think i might still have v.6, unfortunately i don't own any 1050's sorry)

 

Lastly, hyperdrive is just another name (or later name) for Lazer as it's just a re-released version of the lazer (the software that comes with the hyperdrive can also be used with the lazer and visa versa)

ok, thanks for all the answers, i will put it back in a working drive and test it out!
