hi any help would be appretiated.

my mates hard drive just failed in his hp pavillion 423.uk so im helping him gettin his pc runin again. i installed a new hard drive and put on xp pro with no problem.

The thing is that the computer didn't come with any display sound etc drivers on disk they were already on the hard drive.

have you checked hp's website?

my aunt has an oldish hp (pentium 3) and after upgrading to xp the same thing happened

Yes i have checked the hp website they only have mostly updates for the drivers not the actual drivers i need.

anyway i did some further investigating with the mobo and got sum details of that ie, chipset and onboard graphics and found the drivers on an intel website problem solved.

thanks for your time anyway.

You can find the video driver (and the drivers for the other HW functions) at http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/s...=91012&lang=en

Good luck.

if u look again, you will c they are just driver updates, not the actual drivers bob. you have to go to the intel support site for them.
