Hi,
Can anyone help me to a updated driver for my motherboard
(Syntax s740mp AMI: 62-0519-001311-00101111-040201-SIS740-S740mp)?
Like many people i can't use the widescreen function.

Thanks in advance.

I already found this topic and tried everything. The problem is that i can't find a new driver for my mb. Syntax doesn't seem to have a site.

you can use the standard SIS driver (syntax wouldn't distribute anything else anyway). but that's not the point. the point is that i need a bios to patch. so either you can provide me with a link to a bios or you have to make a backup copy of your current bios and send it via email.

edit: bios found..

general Syntax support directory:
http://64.168.125.230/support/SyntaxDownloads/

Syntax S740MP bios:
http://64.168.125.230/support/SyntaxDow ... os_s740mp/

i chose v1.0a to patch.
