Mother Board of Dell Dimension 9100?
Posted: Wed Oct 26, 2005 2:12 am
Hi all, I'm new here, doing my first post.
Recently I bought a Dell Dimension 9100 and have been regretting it ever since, mostly because it has been very hard for me to do things like re-install windows, etc.
Anyway, after re-installing windows I found I was missing some drivers, so rather than request the driver CD from Dell (which I am going to do now) I thought I'd just download drivers for my motherboard, however I don't know what kind of motherboard I have. I know it's a BTX board, the Pentium is a 630, running at 3.02ghz (I think, I'm not at it now). I believe the chipset is an Intel 945P also, but I am not sure.
Before I completely hosed my computer, I tried running AMIDiag's motherboard identifier, which told me the maker of the motherboard was Dell, which can't be right, since Dell doesnt make motherboards as far as I know.
Can anyone else out there help me figure out the motherboard for this computer from what I have told you? If not, what other information do you need, and how should I try and get it?
