    I recently brought a refurbished motherboard from Computergeeks.com.

    It is an Asus P4SD motherboard (Pentium 4) with foxconn parts (sound card, video, etc.). I am familiar with Asus and from what I understand they do not use Foxconn parts (is this why i cant find the sound, ethernet drivers).

    that being said i am having the hardest time determining where these drivers are. As of late the internet has not been much help.
    The P4SD was made for compact and HP computers. I have went to Asus's website and the drivers arent listed for this particular board.

    I decided to buy a new ethernet card (new card comes with driver cd) so that I can get on the internet and do a pc scan. do you think this will work.
    I need any help I can get.
    Thanks.

    if you can find out the model HP/Compaq then you can hop on their website and get the drivers.

    Download Everest. If you are unable to get on the 'net with the PC you're talking about, copy the set up file to a disc and transfer it to the PC for install. That should tell you what the hardware is. Look for the motherboard chipset, get drivers for that first.

    If you're not sure what to look for, just upload your Everest report as an attachment.

    I found 2 boards with similar ID @ ASUS, but you need to check for certain which is yours. (If either is)

    Along with Musksnipe's advice, just looking at the chips on the motherboard can help alot also. Are they VIA? or Intel? maybe nVidia? or SiS? Using the name on the chip(s) and the number directly under the name (like SiS has the 964 chipset, VIA has the VT8237 and others) you can type that into Google or post it here and we'll try to help.

    EDIT- I did some research... this looks like your board: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?dlc=en&lc=en&product=396296&cc=us&docname=c00022505
    And here's the drivers for Windows XP for that board (it's from a Compaq Presario S6700NX among others)

    Scroll down until you see the section titled "Original Drivers"....
    Good luck!
    And welcome to MajorGeeks!
