    MSI isn't up to speed on the drivers you seek.
    There is an audio driver there, but that's about it.

    What you can do is to positively* identify all your sub-system components that need drivers.
    Use your mobo manual or D/L and run Everest Free or PC Wizard to do the ID for you.

    Then go shopping for drivers.

    *positively...
    You say K8M800. That may be the series, but I see K8M890 as the NB chip.
    You need to be very specific or you may grab the wrong driver.
