Looking for drivers for a NF4 motherboard

[MichaelD]

I know, it's a relic. I recently unearthed an EVGA 133-K8-NF41 motherboard (whole PC actually). It's got one of the original AMD Dual Core CPUs in it, a 2.0GHz, dual-core model and an amazing (for 2006) 2GB of RAM. It's also got WinXP loaded on it's 60GB HD.

The MB has SATA and PCIe slots, so will make a fine HTPC running Win7...if I can find some drivers for this thing. NVidia's site shows nothing for NF4 motherboards. I submitted a trouble ticket, but who knows if EVGA will respond? A quick Googling turned up lots of "These drivers might work" posts.

Does anyone have a direct link from EVGA or NVidia for NF4 chipset drivers? Thanks very much!

I believe these drivers should work? They are for NF4, though Vista 64Bit which should be usable on Windows 7.

Whenever looking for older nVIDIA products, they're normally listed under legacy.

Regardless of them saying support begins with the NF5 series, the NF4 series links there too.

EDIT: With it being only 2GB of memory you'll want the 32Bit Windows installed.

Thank you very much, Bearch! I'll give that a shot. I didn't see the "Legacy" section in the driver selection app. The Vista drivers should work under W7. W7 normally has built-in drivers for almost anything. But IIRC, the NForce motherboards were sorta unique in driver aspect, so it'll be good to at least have Vista drivers (which is what W7 is based on anyway) on hand.

Cha-ching! Thanks! Even got the MB utils there!
