    ddp,
    after a closer look, it turns out to be a pavilion XT938. I poked around on other forums(asus help forums and the like) and found all the drivers. The computer is running like a clock, every thing is working great.
    Not a bad system for a freebie. I plan to install an old Nec dvd r drive I have laying here. My sister needs a computer for her kids and can't afford one. So this is one is going to their house.
    Thanks again to you and bbmayo for all the help.
    Hogan

    That was where I got my drivers. Chipset, graphic and I think audio. It was 3 am so I don't remember. I did put them on disk though, for future use.
