Get program called CPU-Z it will show you what chipset you have in use

my chipset is :

NVIDIA - nForce2 IGP - Rev. A2

i went to www.nvidia.com, and it doesn't have an option to download an nForce2 driver. i guess it's too old to update?

**temeteus82** · Mar 19, 2008, 05:41 PM

it is there

Product type is legacy ... then you see them

i went to "Download Drivers", clicked "Legacy" on the drop down screen. then, i clicked "nForce 1/2 Series" on the next drop down menu, then clicked "Windows XP". now, i'm downloading. does this sound correct?

yes it does

alright, i was just talking to my buddy on ventrilo, he said to just run the .exe, and not to worry about uninstalling any driver. i have no experience with updating Chipset drivers, what do you think?

Nforce Unified Remix 11.16 2K/XP and XP64

There was a lot of remixing at one time, either to retain components of older driver sets that were found to be better, or to pull in updated/beta components from other sets.

More remixes

Maybe the main release is good enough without remixing now.

Agreed... the drivers you get from nVidia will work just fine for nForce 2 boards.
