Can't find anything here that matches that description. Is there a label on the right-hand side of the case?

Thanks

Yea i looked there to, couldnt find it

I think that is my model though......its just an older pc (although it did come with a TFT screen so not ancient!)

On the side of the pc it has got the windows xp info, with product key etc

on the back it has:

model/type ref: ALT _CO2

PID: 0339753

S/N: 033975320590

P/N: P842010401

MODEL: IMEDIA 3060/1

thats about as much info as i can see on stickers/labels?

Any clues about what i can do??

Thanks for the help to everyone, i honestly thought win xp cd would come with all the drivers i need, but it appears this pc is older than i thought!

Give Belarc Advisor a go. If that can't identify the internals we'll have to resort to educated guesses.

Thanks, installed and ran it, it came back with a huge list of everything on the pc

can i just cut and paste the link here? or cut and paste the whole text into this box?

edit: under system model it said this:

The information shown in the first six boxes should be sufficient.

Looks like one of those bothersome bespoke boards. What've you got under Display and Multimedia?

jassi_9

under display properties settings (in control panel)

it says: plug an play monitor on sis 650

dont see a "multimedia" icon?

-TangleFoot-

And in the Belarc report?
