Title: Checking the type of motherboard installed on your pc Post by: Izzy on July 26, 2006, 06:11:06 PM Is there a quick and easy way (i.e without dismantling the machine) to check the type/spec/make etc of the motherboard installed on your computer?
I've managed to misplace the documentation that came with the model... Title: Re: Checking the type of motherboard installed on your pc Post by: Neemo on July 26, 2006, 07:53:12 PM best was is to actually take the side cover off the tower and read the model # right off the board....dont forget the revision number. it's usually located by the PCI slot or by the processor sometimes a sticker on the chipset...last resort is to dl a program like cpuz or something
ie - a7v8x v2.0 (where v2.0 is the revision) Title: Re: Checking the type of motherboard installed on your pc Post by: Walk on July 26, 2006, 10:56:06 PM Get EVEREST and try it.
