Did you reinstall the motherboard drivers along with any other device drivers you have?

I thought windows XP is able to install the motherboard drivers but i was wrong.I downloaded AIDA32 to check the name of my motherboard and what i got isMotherboard Name:Aristo AM-957).However,I search all over the net for the driver under this particular brand name but no result.Can you pls tell me where can i download my motherboard driver as i have lost my driver CD-ROM.Thank you very much!

Open up your case for me and look all over.

You should see something like this Gigabyte GA-K8NS 939.

It should be a brand name followed by some numbers and letter combinations followed by a socket type.

Never heard of Aristo..

try www.driverguide.com
user: drivers
pass: all

^o) my user for driverguide is driver2. also serach aristo and see if the board goes under any other manufacturer names. because often the generic boards come under several different manufacturers titles like an old pc-chips board i had went under: houston, pc-chips and chessking or something like that.

I have opened up the CPU casing to check for the information but still cannot find.I desperately downloaded Sisoftware Sandra Lite Unicode(win32x86) to check for me.This is what I found:
Mainboard
Manufacturer : Vtech
Model : 693-686
System Bios : 12/14/2000-693-686-2A6LGV3GC-00
Chipset : VIA VT82C693 Apollo Pro Plus

Is this correct?
