Hi folks,
I've never done this before but think I have to now (some issues with maya, ruled out all graphic card issues and have been advised probs are related to motherboard drivers).
the board is a gigabyte GA-K8NF-RH and has it's original drivers.
From the gigabyte site, I have downloaded a file called motherboard_driver_for_ide nvidia_nf4.exe (after selecting my exact model) dated 2005.
Confusingly I have also checked nvidia's own site, and after selecting what I think is the correct chipset I've downloaded 6.86 nvidia driver for the chipset (which is newer).
I don't know the difference between motherboard and chipset drivers; should I install both these or only one? Also, should I uninstall the old ones first same as a graphic card driver - and if so how? I beleve I have to with nforce hardware.
Only ever dealt with gpu drivers before so hit a bit of a wall here.
Any advice appreciated!
cheers
