    Exclamation Have You Got This " Sick Feeling "

    Its like this : remember when you pluged in ur Motherboard for the first time , affixed all the cables , connected all the drives, put everything together, and then , that smell . That unmistaken smell of melting wire and toasted resistors. hmmmmm ,,, ah yes fellow constructor , hmmmmmmmmm melted solder hmmmmmmmmm:

    So after this brief interlude : This is the deal :

    I have a A7V-VM

    Its works , But What I need is the SystemBoard Installation / Setup Disk on Cd. Some one some where has one , put away , I do require a copy or download or something ,

    I have been to ASUS , its not listed , in their Motherboard Page listings .
    I also have been to HP, as it came from a hp 7830 and there is no mention of of system board disks, up grades yes , but i need the disk, you know the one you use when you upgrade ur motherboard,

    thanks for the help people

    Which A7V?

    The A7VI or A7VL-VM

    The drivers are on asus site

    http://support.asus.com.tw/download/...Language=en-us

    choose motherboard

    then socketA(462) then scroll down to the A7 drivers near the bottom of the list

    then on the next page click the driver tab..

    excuse me mr mayet for being a little stupit, when you read my post you may have seen that the Motherboard was a ASUS A7V-VM which is printed in large white letters between the AGP slot and the 1st or 3rd PCI slot.

    it is not a a7v??? or ant thing else, as i said before , its not listed on the ASUS site ,thanks for your help , well you did not really help at all

    hp 7830 and there is no mention of of system board disks, up grades yes , but i need the disk, you know the one you use when you upgrade ur motherboard,
    You simply need to download the appropriate drivers from the hp site..all the rest of the drivers are OS included if you choose which operating system you need drivers for. The recovery cd for that computer includes the operating system..there is no seperate driver disk, and if you were upgrading your motherboard, you would need different drivers anyway?

    I can find mention of that model all over google as an OEM model & that'd probably explain why you can't find anything at asus ..

    I found this HP Pavilion Desktop PCs - Motherboard Specifications, ASUS A7V-VM at hp ... eventually !

    but while I was looking I see that Geoscomp popped up with what was my 'real question' - just what on this cd do you 'need' ?

    Spyders.....

    I think you owe Mayet an apology!

    A7V-VM is NOT the board number but the board type, which is why nothing is listed on the Asustek web site.

    If you have on-board graphics then it is an A7VL-VM.

    If you do not have onboard graphics then it will be an A7VI-VM.

    Exactly as Mayet said.........

    You can confirm this by studying the Bios splash screen on boot up - the exact number is listed in the wording there.

    Quite an old board now... AMD Athlon/Duron 100fsb up to about 1.4ghz maximum if my memory is correct.

    The actual boards were never available commercially, being OEM fitments usually installed in Hewlett-Packard & Compaq machines and are not one of the better boards from Asus......

    It is Mrs to you....

    and please read and learn before you accuse me of not helping much. If I ddin't think I would be able to help you. I wouldn't of. I would have spent time playing with my six kids, or managing my shop or even mowing my lawn or cleaning my house or writing my book rather than giving my precious little free time to assist you.

    Gee Mayet! Isn't it wonderful being hammered by people who can't count their feet and come up with the same number twice in a row?

    ok I went a looking at some of the information ," the nice ppl here gave me " , and is another twist the Board is not an A7VI or A7VL, this board dose not have an Onboard Graphics port at the rear. dose that make any easier.and at right angles to the rear on the side . it has printed circuit with 3 slots in the board , for a daughter board,
    But I still cannot find what Iam looking for .

    to awnser the someones question , i want the disk to install the board , not all Os's wiil have the drivers for Lan , USB ,VIA etc

    But I am getting there . thanks again men

    After what you said to Mayet I think maybe start by grabbing a clue
    It doesnt sound like you should be working on systems with yer level of knowledge anyway.
    At least go get Everest and run it on the system
    That motherboard although likely made for crappy HP's by asus is still using a "certain" chipset (likely VIA) and a certain audio chipset (again likely VIA AC-97)
    After that it isnt too too hard getting things running
