Please help someone. I want to download a program called Motherboard Monitor
but I don't know how to tell what brand motherboard I have. I have searched
in System Information but Im not sure what I am looking for by name. I see
motherboard names I have read about or heard about but don't know whats in my
PC. Thanks all for your help with this NEWBE. I'll learn.JJ

Aida32 or Belarc Advisor can find this info.

Aida32 ver. 3.93 For 9x/NT/2K/XP. The original — and, in some ways, better
than its successor.

The most obvious places to look would be in the computer's manual or on
the manufacturer's web site. Failing that:

1) Start > Run > MSinfo32.exe.

2) Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Information

3) Start > Run > DXDiag.exe.

4) Right-click My Computer > Manage > Device Manager.

5) If none of the built-in tools provide the information you want, you
can use these utilities to help determine the answer to your question:
