the driver section for my motherboard at ABIT's site has the intel Chipset Driver v6.0xxx made for my board, but guru3D.com has v7.0xxx. is it all right to download these and use'em? Any risk involed? abit is7 i856pe Prescott 2.8ghz @ 4004Mhz 286x14 FSB @ 1144Mhz 512x2 in dual config @ 430mhz 9800 se unlocked & clocked @ 444mhz/800mhz

if it is chipset drivers, get them from intel. that is the best route to go. p4 3.0ghz @ 222X15=3330mhz 512mb pc3200 dual channel @222mhz 80gb wd hdd/40gb maxtor when on linux 8x agp geforce 6200 @ 530/585can't unlock extra pipes. plz help if you can Audigy 2 ZS<b

Well, they are labled "Intel Chipset Installation Utility 7.0.0.1025" so it should be safe right? It was to my understanding that I should only get get my chipset drivers from my motherboard's manufactuaure, but Abit's version is outdated compared to these. abit is7 i865pe Prescott 2.8ghz @ 4004Mhz 286x14 FSB @ 1144Mhz 512x2 in dual config @ 430mhz 9800 se unlocked & clocked @ 444mhz/800mhz

i would get them from the chipset maker's site. that way you will know they are up to date, and will work properly. but that will be safe p4 3.0ghz @ 222X15=3330mhz 512mb pc3200 dual channel @222mhz 80gb wd hdd/40gb maxtor when on linux 8x agp geforce 6200 @ 530/585can't unlock extra pipes. plz help if you can Audigy 2 ZS<b
