Help about an uotdated graphic chipset(intel 946gz)....

[kBrad3]

Please,could somebody eventually help me with video-bios update.I downloaded intel graphic chipset driver zip-file with several video-bios update files.It was hard for me to make a bootable cd containing flashing files because I needed to contact other sites..Now the problem is the closest vb-update file is for g965 so my question is is that compatible with 946gz?Thank You!

In the case of the BIOS, if you are using Intel motherboards you can download the latest version using the link below, type on the search box the model of the board.

Thanks for answering my question but I don't have a intel motherboard I think, only the graphic card wich is embedded is intel.I have encountered problem with booting(virus payload maybe,not sure)so I first reinstall XP, the problem with unresponsiveness returned after 30min.I presumed a firmware virus so flashed award's bios,things come better but not enough(internet) so updated cd-rom firmware..nothing better...after that disabled onboard network card nothing..inernet still connects and after 10min disconnects and web pages loading is slow....so the only things that remain are graphic card video bios or less probable HDD-firmware.I think the reprogrammed graphic card couses a strange delay in PC-booting but intel gives flashing files for other cards, the closest is g965 but in case of noncompatibility the PC may finish harmed.....so I posted here the problem.....

Check with your motherboard manufacturer if there is available a newer BIOS version and drivers.

You can try with our generic chipset driver.
