I have wiped vista from my PC and installed XP home but I am having trouble finding drivers for onboard devices, sound, video, ethernet.
My Mobo is an acer mrs600m.
Can anyone help ??????????

What is the Model # of your Acer system e.g Acer Power M8, Aspire T671?

Have you tried the Acer support site?

It's a T671 and the Acer site doesn't have any help

Try this Unknown Device Identifier to see if i can ID your NIC. T hen you can download the drivers from the manufacturer of the NIC

From what I could find out it comes with either Realtek and Marvell ethernet. You can either try the UDI software that Simpswr linked to or try the two different drivers below. I would start with the Marvell drivers. There are a couple different drivers for from Realtek depending on your chipset. This is where the UDI software would really come in handy.

Please post back and let us know which one works for you. Others may be looking for the same solution in the future, and as you said, the Acer site is of no help.

Thanks

I had the same issue. The link to Marvell solved it for me.

Thanks for that info Pim. Do you also have an Acer T671?

No, mine is an Acer Aspire M3610, but the motherboard is also a MRS600M.
