Question about my Motherboard???

geargrabber3 · Jul 25, 2003, 01:15 AM

I would like to know how you determine what Motherboard is in my computer. My system specs are-

HP computer
AMD Athlon 1.3 ghz
1024 mb sdram (upgraded from128 mb sdram)
PNY Nvidia G-force 4 MX420 PCI 64 mb graphics card (upgraded
from the original integrated S3 Savage4)
Turtle Beach Santa Cruz sound card (upgraded from the
original integrated AC 97 audio)
Chipset-VIA KL 133
No AGP slot

Now can anyone tell me what I need to do to find out which motherboard I have?
Also knowing my computer specs, to upgrade the motherboard which one would work best with my system, but with an AGP slot?
Thanks for any information given.

You could get Sisoft Sandra and that might tell you something. I would take the cover off and look at it- there usually is a name and model # on there somewhere. (good flashlight will help)

You also might be able to find out something be doing searches for that HP model # on google- you will probably find someone asking the same question in a forum somewhere or something. Maybe even the HP website?
