Title: Mother Board Drivers
Post by: Paradise on September 18, 2015, 01:11:09 PM
I just recently, got this board but, I didn't get the drivers disk that came with it.   Intel D848PMB Socket 478.  I can only seem too find more of these boards for sale but, not the drivers I need for Windows 7

How far have you searched?
The link below is from Intel.

Use of Intel drivers with older operating systems that Microsoft* has discontinued or does not fully support should be considered AS-IS in respect to features, function, debugging and usability with recently released Intel® Desktop Boards and Intel will no longer provide technical support for them. These operating systems include Windows XP* Editions, Windows ME*, Windows 2000 Professional Edition*, Windows NT*, Windows 98 Standard Edition (SE)*, Windows 98* and Windows 95*. Please refer to the... Microsoft sites for more information:
Do not expect Windows 7 drivers.  :(
However, there might be a way to do it.
