The Acerpower M8 was never shipped from Acer with Windows XP installed.... only Vista. Hence Acer will not have drivers that are easily found and might noit even exist.

The mcp61sm-am motherboard was custom built by Foxconn for Acer and Packard-Bell. Here's the matching board from Packard Bell if you wish to try the drivers from them:

However, they only have a couple of drivers listed for Windows XP.
