Matsonic ms8147c Drivers

[shebmeister]

I inherited a Matsonic ms8147c motherboard last month.

No drivers (or batteries) included.

My religion forbids me from going to any **drivers* for cash sites.

Does anyone have or know of a free site where I can download Matsonic 8147c drivers?

Mucho Gracias

Yo BigBad,

Would you mind sharing the site where I can download the Matsonic 8147c drivers?

The Matsonic 8147c, uses the KT400 chipset from VIA, thus the drivers can be found on the ViaArena website...

VIA Hyperion Pro Driver Package (XP)

http://www.viaarena.com/displaydrivers.aspx?PageID=1&OSID=1&CatID=1070

VEN&DEV can be found under the INFO tab, in the Device Manager by double clicking the devices that are missing drivers... when you list these here, we can point you to the correct drivers, once you have installed the ChipSet drivers (see above)...

I had a look and it seems the support website for Matsonic has gone now.
Not a problem!
As BadBigBen points out this motherboard used the Via KT400 chipset so go to Viaarena to download those.
The sound and ethernet may be slightly more dificult to find but all you need to do is identify the sound and ethernet chips on the motherboard, then go to the appropriate website.
Probabley Realtek for both but like I say find the make and numbers off the sound/ethernet chips.

that was meant satirically, meaning that he will not pay for drivers that are to be had for FREE...
