i would, if i had the drivers for them? oO;;

i dont get what your saying...

 

[EricB]

what's is saying is, that info can help you find your drivers on the next. you have basically solved your own problems.

all you need is the motherboard name to find drivers. or use everest

 

[articwind]

well what i mean to say is, that i dont know how to use that information to find the drivers i need... i am quite computor illiterate, thats why i came here, because i need some help.

this was a close as I could find Download Search Results

It is the xp drivers for the d845gerg2 but should work for your board worth a try.

 

[articwind]

it worked for the network adapter, and for the video card, but not for the audio ^^;; thanks tho!~

 

[Hefemeister]

Do you have the disks that came with your computer?

 

[Hefemeister]

look here at Gateway's site Gateway Support Drivers & Downloads
