Hi there i recently bought this Advent t9304 linked here http://www.dixons.co.uk/product.php... of a friend but go no driver disc and i have been looking for a few hours now and still cant seem to find motherbaord drivers .. ive tried all the driver programs like driver genius and detective but they where only good for my grfx sound and stuff. but i could do with finding a copie of the driver cd which should have been with it... is there a way of find out wat motherboard i have install and maybe i can go to there website.. thank alot peeps

For your main chipset drivers go here and get the Intel Chipset Identification Utility and run it on the Advent:
http://www.intel.com/support/chipse...
Once you know which chipset you have, get the proper drivers for it from the Intel site. You need at least the INF Update utility, and if it's there, the IAA (Intel Application Accelerator) which you load after the INF updates. The INF updates will install your hard controller drivers, Intel USB drivers, AGP drivers, etc., etc. If your sound is Intel the drivers for it will probably be loaded when you run the INF update Utility as well.You usually can't get the complete contents of the CDs that came with the mboard or the system on the web. If it was orginally a system with pre-installed software, there are normally downloads for your model on the brand name's web site - but it appears Advent UK no longer has a web site.
"....is there a way of find out wat motherboard i have..."
Open up the case and look for larger characters printed on the mboard that might be a model number - often between the slots - the mboard maker may or may not be beside that, or obvious elsewhere.
The make and model may also be displayed on the first black screen as you boot, if that screen isn't obscured by a logo screen, but it is better to look for the model number on the mboard itself.

Try SIW free download. it should give you all the info you need about your computer and its hardware/software
