A BIOS upgrade is something one should do only in case the following two criteria are met: 1-One is available to fit your specific motherboard 2-A known or suspected problem will or might be fixed by an available BIOS update Compare these two product pages: http://emachines.com/support/product_support.html?cat=Desktops&subcat=T-Series&model=T2842 http://emachines.com/support/product_support.html?cat=Desktops&subcat=T-Series&model=T2240 The specifications on these two products are relatively similar. Yet, the former is lacking two sections that the latter has: 1-User Guides 2-Downloads Were it not for the absence of User Guides on the former, I *might* believe that no downloads are available. However, in looking at the nature of both the downloads available and the user guide available on the latter, I seriously doubt that the former page is not broken. That is to say, though it's likely as not there is no updated BIOS to download, I highly doubt it shouldn't have a user guide or drivers available to download. The approach I'd take to this would be to reestablish contact with eMachines and complain you can't find the Windows XP drivers for audio and video, drivers that almost certainly *should* be there. If you can get them to investigate why neither are there, likely they'll eventually find every download that belongs there, *possibly* even including a BIOS update, and fix the page. For the immediate problem, don't expect this to be a current solution. You have to go on, and come back to this if and when it becomes possible. -- "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." John 1:1 NIV Team OS/2 ** Reg.
