Please could you find me the original motherboard drivers for this board in order for me to properly install the ethernet controller, the multimedia audio controller and the sm bus controller. I have looked and looked and to no avail. The computer did not come with the original disk and the motherboard is since discontinued. The asus website does not seem to be supporting this motherboard with drivers either.

Many thanks

David

If Asus no longer provides these drivers then look to each chipset manufacturer respectively. Here's a software that not only will id what the hardware is but will often give you a link to where the driver is:
