I dont know where i get all that
but its Dell Dimension3000, pentium 4 processor and thats all i know
if you tell me where to find the rest i can post it up.Reply After reinstalling Windows XP you need to install the chipset drivers before even attempting to install other device drivers. Once the chipset drivers are installed, you can then sucessfully install drivers for the other devices. All drivers for you system can be downloaded from:

yeah i tried it three timesReply - If you have on-board audio, try uninstalling the drivers.
Reboot, and see if Windows will install drivers for you.
If not, you will have to find out the make of your soundcard,(and Network Card) then download the drivers for those from the appropriate site.Message Edited by msil217 on 06-10-200612:03 PM
