Tell us the make and model of your brand name system, or if you have a generic desktop system, the make and model of the mboard. The specific model of a brand name system is often shown on a label on the outside of the case somewhere, or it can often be determined by going to the brand name's web site and loading a program they have available, if Windows is still working, on the subject computer. If it's a Dell computer... Go here for how to find the Service tag "number": http://support.dell.com/support/top... Tell us what it is. If it's a HP or Compaq computer..... Go here: http://partsurfer.hp.com/search.aspx Scroll down a bit. Look for the similar label on the outside of your computer. Quote the specific model number - that's at the end of the first line. Quote the Product number - that's on the third line. The model, sometimes the make, of a mboard in a generic desktop system is usually printed on the mboard's surface in obvious larger characters, often between the slots.
