Hi everyone

I've got a E Systems 3086 laptop which I have just reformatted with an XP disk but cannot find the majority of drivers anywhere on the internet and I dont have the driver cd that came with it. Anyone know where I can find them?

Many thanks

you sure thats the model number

had a look round and it seems that these are the drivers you need
different model to yours but its a clone of the esystems 3086 so should all work
(but dont shout if they dont)

I'm realiably informed the above link is the driver for your Ethernet card.

the notebook that was stated as using the same drivers was a Advent 7108 Notebook

if you haven't already got the drivers and even if you have you can get the latest versions of the drivers from the sites below

graphics , chipset and storage drivers (top set of links in the table (940GML))
http://www.intel.com/support/chipsets/sb/CS-022034.htm

network (when you install select driver only)

Audio

I've finally managed to get everything else working but there is no sound, all it says is realtec ac'97 error code 10. Any ideas????

Did you download pixellated's audio driver??? I presume you have checked the mute box and the volume on both win xp and your comp ;-)

I tried all the links to drivers listed above for the soundcard but none worked so I decided to upgrade with Service Pack 3 and that resolved it. Thanks for your help guys :-)
