Hello all ! I am looking for a utility which can help me identifying the make and model of motherboard. I need such a utility because of the following: I am helping my dear old aunt reviving her old Pentium 3 computer. Her HD has gone kaput and I'm giving her my still working 80GB to make her PC works again. I've got a problem though ... This dear ol' aunt doesn't know where she has put the driver CD for this PC, a no-name brand generic PC. I tried eyeballing the mobo for a clue, unfortunately, I can't find any "mark" or "model" printed anywhere. Now I'm stumped. How to download the required drivers if I don't know the make and model of the motherboard, which has integrated VGA graphic? Dear Gurus, please help ! If there's any utility out there that can tell me the make and model of the motherboard of my aunt's PC, I would be extremely grateful ! Is there such utility that I can downloaded? Please help !! Thank you all for reading !!

When I tried getting Everest, I was sent to a page that said the freeware version is no longer available. I have been using Belarc for an excellent hardware / software / OS audit program download link: http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html
