I don't know, a chipset driver would be my guess for the motherboard.
But I wouldn't experiment without knowing for sure unless you are
willing to screw everything up with the wrong one and start all over
again.
One place I would ask is in the microsoft.public.windowsxp.general
newsgroup. In fact, I'm adding that one to this post and wait and see
what those pros says.
