There is another way to download and install, all the files are exe. so they install with a setup file.
create a folder and name it Drivers, then download and save all the files in that folder,get these drivers or all of them so ou have a complete set of drivers.
Intel Chipset
both the SigmaTel audio drivers
Intel video
ATI Video
Then install this way, anything yellow flagged just right click, select Update driver and point to the folder where all your drivers are.
Installing Drivers
Create a folder for what you are downloading
Example: Audio
Then download the zipped file to that folder
Then download and install Winzip
Go to the folder and right click and click Winzip extract to here
That will automatically make a folder and unzip files to it ( make a note of file path)
Then go to folder and click on Setup file and follow instructions displayed for installation
If no Setup file
Anything yellow flagged in Device Manager.
1. Expand "Sound, video and game controllers"
2. Right-click the the yellow flagged device and choose Update Driver
3. In Windows XP SP2, the Update Wizard will prompt to connect to the Windows Update
4. Select "No, not this time" and click Next
5. Select "Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)" and click Next.
6. Select "Search for the best driver in theses locations" and check "Include this location in the search"
7. Click Browse and select the the location of downloaded driver
8. Click OK and click Next
9. Wait while the Wizard installs the software
10. Click Finish.
You won't need Winzip to install
Just one point are you audio plugs near the bottom of the tower, if they are you have a sound card and these drivers will not work, get Everest copy and paste the My Computer/Summary section, it should show the sound card if you have one
