Hi everyone I built my mom a new P4 at work and she told me to keep what was left of her old one and see what I could do with it. Just my luck it is a Patriot Computer and we all know they went bankrupt. I'd like to transfer my daughter's stuff to this computer as it will take the newer ram and more of it and could be better than the one she's got. My problem is I can't find the drivers for the motherboard. The model number of the computer is MPM233P. I can't find any numbers at all on the motherboard. I've already searched on Google and just keep coming up with news articles about the bankruptcy. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. MindsEye

Thank you all for your input. It is much appreciated. I was able to find drivers for the sound card, video and modem. Then I got lucky. ME detected everything else I needed for the mobo. Once I got the machine to boot on the first screen it gave me the name of the mobo so I have made a note of that too. I will just look up the drivers I need for it and then burn the whole works to cd for next time.
Thanks everyone
