Default Having problems installing Windows XP on computer!

I had installed Windows XP on my friend's computer long time back. Though it took some time for it to get installed we had faced issues with regarding to
sound drivers, VGA drivers and LAN card drivers. Due to the LAN Card drivers issue we were not able to connect to the internet. The motherboard is Tomato I tried searching drivers for this motherboard on the net but couldnt find Sound, VGA and LAN card drivers for Windows XP. The computer is pretty old so the Motherboard CD doesnt have Drivers for windows XP. Since I have lot of friends here in the forum I thought someone would help me out with installing XP successfully on my friend's PC. If you can give some suggestions maybe I can give a shot and try installing Windows XP on his PC again. Awaiting replies from you all.

try this paid site ... driveragent.com
try scanning your PC with that ... you will need to connect net somehow in that PC . i dont know how you will do that....

if that site's scan is able to find newer versions of the drivers ... then pay ..

Its either a i810 or i815 chipset based, I guess. XP should have installed all the drivers automatcally. You can use Lavalys Everest to get the info about the h/w. You can also try XP+SP2.

EDIT- Try finding them here:
http://www.motherboard.cz/driver/zida.htm

ZIDA provides drivers for it.
