That was probly an Andrew E post
You need the chipset drivers for your mobo, obtainable from mobo web site or
PC sys web site
They could be intel or amd, depends entirely on your mobo

You need to know model # of mobo, I thought Sisoft Sandra gave that info, if
not
Aida32

or beleric
http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html
Should give that info, then go to Gigabyte web site, for your specific mobo
and download the drivers.
