    Well...

    I am looking to update my Firmware, but so far I haven't been able to find out what I have so I can get the RIGHT Updates or Where I can get the right updates.


    Please Someone help me...I am in the Device Manager but so far I can't seem to understand what is what??

    I am trying to update my firmware on my Motherboard, Video Card, and what ever needs updating...

    This is what I Know...

    AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2000+
    ATI Video card...I can't tell if it is a All-In-Wonder or Radeon :(
    Radeon 9800 I think?
    Plextor 712-A Combo DVDr/Cdr
    TDK DVDRW 1280B Combo

    I googled them but I don't want to install the wrong driver or files.


    Please Help :(

    ATI cards all run off one Catalyst driver, so just grab the latest one and you'll be fine there. As for the DVD Writers, visit the websites and just choose your product from the list they offer. If you're not sure what you have, there's a program called the Belarc Advisor that should be able to tell you what you have.
