Hi Im new here so not sure how everything works. Just purchased a desktop on ebay with XP professional installed on it. It has a number of problems but Im hoping to fix the VGA one first since that is the subject of this thread. Here is how my device manager looks
I ran Belarc with the following results

I know for a fact that the desktop has a NVIDIA GeForce 7300 LE but dont know why Belarc doesnt see it also know that it has a 802.11 bg WLAN. Not sure what the sound should be but im guessing Realtek.
I went to the HP site but when i entered my model number they only had drivers for Vista not XP. Not sure how to proceed cuz HP customer service said they cant help me if the drivers are not there, hoping I didnt get duped by the good price on ebay.
Any help would be appreciated.
