Problem installing chipsets

[lukey22]

I recently downloaded updated versions of my chipsets from my manufactors website.
When trying to install i click the file ( forget what it's called now ) to install it but nothing happens at all. I was wondering if i can download them from somewhere else or someone may know why they wont install?

If it helps :

Didn't help :\
Used that site before and it dosn't have the right chipsets for me.

So, did you find your serial number and then try getting the downloads that way:

[lukey22]

Yes, but the file i get i cannot do anything with. The install file just dosn't do anything when i click it.

Suppose you write out the file 'name' completely here.

 

[lukey22]

I'll get a pic..

Have you doubleclicked the file?

[lukey22]

Yes, it does absolutly nothing.
Well i can either run or extract it, but either way it does nothing once i run it.

 

[CCT]

Set your display to show known file extensions - if it is a rar it must be extracted then run. If a zip, same thing.

As a side not, that doesn;t seem to be an actual 'chipset' driver package anyway - that FJ thread talks about fixing a card reader.

 

[lukey22]

I have tried it once I've unZip'd it and with file extensions on but no joy

 

[CCT]

I have been ALL OVER and found this: you can try the SiS649FX chipset package.

[lukey22]

Dosn't really do anything but tell me about it. There is no download link or anything :s

 

[CCT]

LoL - running in circles here - that motherboard is 'apparently' a Scaleo P Fuji BUT there is no acknowledgement from their site that they ever heard of your particular component assembly, including chipset.

Frankly, given the continual degredation of component supplier support I am not surprised. Even SiS used to have better support.

Tried- failed - sorry.

For what it is worth, the Foxconn company made several boards using that chipset - they have downloads a/v:

Worth trying anyway.
