I have done an XP reinstall and need to find LAN Ethernet driver and audio driver (both onboard).

The main board when getting system info (Belarc etc) comes up as a Foxconn 945 7MC Series, but nothing more specific.

I have had look inside case and cant see obvious label.

If I go to Foxconn support/download cant find right drivers. As seem to need specific mobo model but cant get (and getting very frustrated).

many thanks
