[Socket 478 Motherboard Drivers Download
Rancul Ratha
Hi guys
I built myself a Super Fast Win98 rig (socket 775, Core 2 Duo, AGP, Geforce 3) on an ECS P4M800PRO-M motherboard. I had a lot of fun putting that together and getting it working. It is dual boot with 98SE and XP and I am just looking for a Geforce 4 TI 4600 to finish that one off. And an X-FI card - actually I have an Exteme Gamer lying around but it is faulty so I am looking to see if I can fix it when I get chance and save myself 20.
So now.... I thought it would be good fun to try building a stupidly fast XP rig! I did a google search and it appears that Socket 1150 boards with XP drivers do exist though I don't have any specific model numbers to search for availability. But what about 1155 motherboards? I'd like something as fast as I can find and preferably full size ATX. Crossfire or SLI support would also be desirable.
Typically there is official INF and SATA driver support for 6-series and 7-series chipsets (both LGA1155 only) provided by Intel for WinXP. Audio/LAN/other onboard peripheral drivers may or may not be available depending on the vendor. Certainly Gigabyte provides downloadable WinXP drivers for everything (except the USB 3.0) on my GA-B75M-D3H motherboard. If the motherboard maker doesn't provide downloads directly, you could try the generic Chipset INF and Rapid Storage driver packages from the Intel site, and whatever Realtek audio/etc drivers from their respective sites.
The Asus Sabertooth Z77 seems to have quite complete XP support, including drivers for the integrated NIC, USB 3.0, and audio chipset. Checked before, planning to use my current main rig as an XP monster once I replace it. Haven't tested it myself yet though.
See how it has an asterisk after "Windows XP support"? Then it says the asterisk means "Coming soon". I think they are talking only about those 2 non intel sata ports having a WinXP driver. It is a bit misleading.
i recently purchased an Asus P4SD i865PE Socket 478 motherboard from geeks.com. i have been searching for 2 days now for the drivers. specifically the video,audio & LAN drivers. it seems to be made by asus for HP but has no model# or ASUS name printed on it. it only has an HP sticker & a serial #. serial is p6b580t9vqpoy1. next to that it says rev 0t. the only other marking is a sticker that reads 374 rev or S2A. here is a picture of what it looks like -P4SD-NOAGP-R.jpg . could someone pleas point me to the correct drivers or tell me what HP computer had this board so that i can narrow my search.
I may just be able to help you out with that. I just installed the P4SD in a compaq to replace the P4SD-LA. Just finished installing windows with all drivers and everything is running great. Got all the drivers from the d530 convertible minitower (same mobo) just like you mentioned.
I can find all the other drivers really easily, but I need internet first. And I just can't find the right Ethernet driver. Someone said it was Intel (Chipset 865V or something like that), but when I tried to install the driver, it didn't work. And the HP website is crap and won't actually let me download any of the drivers. (I thought it might require Internet Explorer rather than Firefox, so I tried it and the HP website still didn't work.)
I just built my own Windows 10 computer with a Z170 Pro Gaming motherboard from Asus , but when I installed windows and connected an ethernet cord to the router, I'm not connected even though it works when attached to a different device. I know my motherboard came with a CD for drivers, which I suspect may need to be installed for the ethernet to work (the ethernet port from the mobo probably needs the software driver to run, right?) But I don't have an optical drive, so I'm trying to download the drivers to a usb on a separate computer. The problem is that there's over 90 different ASUS drivers for that motherboard, and I have no idea which of them I need to use or not. I do not yet have a wi-fi card or connection. How can I get connected to the internet?
If it is this motherboard then the NIC is an Intel I219V. So finding the driver should be easy. And once it has a working Ethernet connection it might automatically update most other drivers on its own.
Since the hardware is connected but the drivers are missing you just need the driversAlso there are so many of them how to know which is the one that is a signed driver for your Lan connection right? Here's how:
Open the run window using Win + R key.Type devmgmt.msc. it will open Device manager.Now look for "Network Adapters" there.Select your Lan Connection Adapter something like " xyz ethernet adapter"Now right click on it and select "Properties".After the go to "Details" tab.Then next you need to select the "Property" value as " Hardware Ids" in the drop down.Once done you will see the "Value" box below in the same window.It will have 4-5 or less values in rows. Select the top one.It will be something like : "PCI\VEN_15AD&DEV_07B0&SUBSYS_07B015AD&REV_01"Copy this and on a different laptop search for this value on google.It will give you the results for drivers download for this.Download the driver on the laptop.Save it in a bootable drive or hard disk. Connect the hard disk to your pc.Again go to Device Manager and click on Update Driver for the Lan Adapter.Select the option as Let me choose.Then select choose from a location on the PC.Go to the folder where the driver is saved in your hard disk.Load the driver and finish the install.Reboot the PC once done.And you are good to go.Now the PC will identify the LAN connection as trhe drivers are installed.Let me know if this helps.. :-)
The socket identifier for the processor. This is the number that is assigned to the motherboardsocket on the local computer. That is, it is a physical processor identifier. The possible values forthis member are zero to the number of sockets on the motherboard minus one.
The hyper-threading ID of the processor. The value is in the range from zero through the number intheMaxHyperThreadingProcsPerCore member of the NDIS_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR_INFO_EX structure minusone.
The node identifier of the processor. This is the number of the NUMA node to which the processorbelongs. This range of possible values is zero to the number of NUMA nodes on the local computer minusone.
The node distance of the processor. If the handle at theNdisHandle parameter that the caller passed to theNdisGetProcessorInformationEx function is not NULL and is a miniport adapter handle, this membercontains the distance of the corresponding NIC from this processor's NUMA node. Otherwise, this memberis zero for miniport drivers or USHORT_MAX (0xffff) for other drivers.
I noticed your chipset and operating system are a bit old, I recommend checking with the motherboard manufacturer for the proper driver since Intel does not provide generic drivers for older generations than 8th.
I am glad to know you were able to fix the issue. In this case, the support of SATA 3.1 will depend on your motherboard and drive, if the motherboard supports 3.1, any Intel RST driver will support it.
Perfect, it is great to hear that you were able to confirm that if 6-bit 222 words in the drive identification data is set to 1, then it supports SATA 3.1. Intel RST driver is not related to the SATA version so there is no date of compliance with the SATA 3.1. If supported by the platform it will work with the driver.
Your INTEL boys, they were did too much tweaking at its one RST version, some newer versions they block even SMART detection, and or block retrieval of specific HDD status information ( by them thinking of it as system security enhancement).
No blockages were in place (just inferior software). S.M.A.R.T. detection, since specifically mentioned, was in no way ever blocked. The RST GUI exposed S.M.A.R.T. notifications itself. For custom tools, you simply had to have support for tunnelling through RTS's CSMI packet protocol. Once upon a time (read: 13+ years ago), I published an open-source package that detailed exactly how to use this capability to tunnel through and expose all S.M.A.R.T. data, so no excuse for drive vendor software.

It lists devices known to work onthis platform, as well as some notes on boot-time kernelcustomization that may be useful when attempting to configuresupport for new devices.
FreeBSD/i386 runs on a wide variety of ``IBM PC compatible''machines. Due to the wide range of hardware available for thisarchitecture, it is impossible to exhaustively list allcombinations of equipment supported by FreeBSD. Nevertheless, somegeneral guidelines are presented here.
Symmetric multi-processor (SMP) systems are generally supportedby FreeBSD, although in some cases, BIOS or motherboard bugs maygenerate some problems. Perusal of the archives of the FreeBSDsymmetric multiprocessing mailing list may yield some clues.
FreeBSD will generally run on i386-based laptops, albeit withvarying levels of support for certain hardware features such assound, graphics, power management, and PCCARD expansion slots.These features tend to vary in idiosyncratic ways between machines,and frequently require special-case support in FreeBSD to workaround hardware bugs or other oddities. When in doubt, a search ofthe archives of the FreeBSD laptop computer mailing list may be useful.
