Damned compaq's. Anyways maybe somebody here can help me I upgraded a compaq preserio model 7360 to windows 2000 and now Im having trouble finding drivers for it. Compaq is stupid. From the hardware down to even the way the put their cases together. I cant find what brand or model # of the video card or soundcard because its not in the book and its not on the website. Or at least I couldnt find it. They have some win2k drivers there but not for vid or sound. If anybody could provide me with any information on how or where to obtain drivers for this sardine can please let me know. Or even just help with the model numbers. I believe that the video card is an onboard via/trident. The motherboard is via. The soundcard I have no clue. The rest I have taken care of. Thank you very much.

OP
I did. Couldnt find enough info. I guess I could have taken the via chipset number and checked via's website. I was running out of time so I had to go. I need to send an email to the owner with the drivers but it looks like Im going to have to go back over there. . I was hoping that finding drivers for win2k would be easier by now . I guess people still have the mentality that home users dont use win2k. Lame.
