HERE'S THE CHALLENGE... ARE YOU UP FOR IT?

I have an Asus A8N Premium. I reinstalled Windows XP (SP3) but I've
lost the mobo's CD (dont try this at home).

Currently these are the devices in Device Manager that are "alerting".
THE CHALLENGE: Provide a direct link for that will resolve each of the
device manager problems below:

- Other PCI Bridge Device

- PCI Input Device

- PCI Memory Controller

- RAID Controller (i dont care.. dont need raid)

- Multimedia Audio Controller (i dont care, I suspect this will be
solved when
I install the creative augidy drivers for my soundcard)

- SM Bus Controller (i tried an nvidia 'chipset' driver from asus but
it didnt work)

- "Unknown Device"

(pls try it before you suggest I just go to the asus site... it's not
that easy)

I had a look and recoiled at the complexity.
Big thanks to anyone who can help... I'm very frustrated with Asus
right now

I Googled and Ixquicked for a torrent of the driver CD and drew a blank,
but might have spent more time searching ...
Same with a couple of ftp search engines.

Asus used to offer the CD for sale at <http://estore.asus.com>, for
US & Canada only, for $5 + shipping, but they don't any more by the
look of it. I only found a dead link -
<http://estore.asus.com/shop/item.asp...=259&catid=136>
from -
<http://www.motherboardpoint.com/asus-support-cd-a8n-sli-premium-
t56255.html>
(watch the wrap)

Sorry I can't pin it down, but it *must* be out there somewhere.
