I have been given a computer.... Tiny 810LS1?

Question

i was given it because it had crashed and they just bought a new one! when i tried to lod xp onto it again the cd drive had gone so i fitted a new one out of a old computer and i've managed to get windows on it! But the only prob is that i don't have any drivers for it... i need, graphics card, sound card, usb. drivers.

there is alos a tv tuner card and firewire card inside which i believe have been added as extra's but any ideas for any drivers would be brill!

system-information
will tell you what hardware you've got. Then you can google the devices as suggested by other posts. Ideally, go directly to the manufacturers web site.

Answer 2

go into device manager and the ones with yellow symbols on uninstall them 1 by 1 then check for new hardware most of the drivers should load themselves back up

Answer 3

Go to belarc advisor. It will scan your computer and give you a list of all the hardware and a list of all the drivers installed. Then go to each manufacturer's website and download the drivers.

Answer 4

I would suggest opening it up and making a nite of all the serial numbers on the boards then google for them.

Or just ask whoever u got the pc from for the disks if they still have them.
