Motherboard drivers IBM

[xit]

I have been searching but am anable to find drivers for an IBM Aptiva E-Series 245 computer. This is one of the toughest system to find drivers for that I have experienced in a while. Just checking through it , it is a super socket 7 board with AMD processor most likely a AMD 500 or 550 K-6 2 or K-6 3 processor. Any help appreciated

thank you

xit,
Which particular drivers are you looking for?

@xit - find and download Lavalys'(

Everest Home, do an analysis of the hardware in use (as I know that Aptivas came in many flavors both Intel and AMD)... Mostlikely it has a SIS 530 chipset which you can download from the following page(

http://www.sis.com/download/)...

tell us if this helped or not...

If it works don't fix it! If it doesn't use a sledgehammer...

Not only that but there is a website that is devoted to not only getting you info on your mobo but the drivers as well.
Perhaps you could google it, i know that i used it a few times but that was years ago. I will try and find it in my favorites, but, alas, i overdid my favorites and have too many.

I dont even think this is the place, not sure. But often you can find links to the one you are looking for on another site so try here, with "MOBOT"

Looking around in my favorites, i think the site i mentioned above is no good anymore, but im not totally sure of that.
but maybe some of the sites i gave you might help.

Try this page first as i see socket 7 is listed there.
This is from the above site that i listed but its a search for all IBM listed on that site.
