is the web site for your mobo, from here you can download a manual, and any
drivers
You need to visit drivers section and download and install all the drivers
listed for *your o/s*
I did'nt physically download any, but often they may have instruction text
file included. It might be an idea, when downloading to place each in its
own folder.
The file downloaded may be either a self extracting installation file or it
could be a file that extracts, you then have to install by running a setup
file.
If you contemplate updating the Bios, ensure you read the *instructions
first* if you do it incorrectly you may kill your sys. So dont touch unless
it cures a specific problem.
