hp dc5100 driver problem

Recently purchased a used hp dc5100 sff which has an intel chipset 82915G/GV/910GL. when attempting to install a game, the following message appeared:  "WINEER_not implemented."  I have downloaded,  hopefully, all required software upgrades for both the unit and the chipset.  Now a message appears "Driver being installed is not validated for this computer. Please obtain appropriate driver from computer manufacturer." Being a novice, I am completely confused...is there anyone out there that can shed any light to what is going on here ??   Thanks.

Re: hp dc5100 driver problem

Hi not sure if this will assist or not, but noticed that the unit you have was a business unit,not consumer.

 

Not sure what O/S your running but here is the page for support etc on your unit, if you notice that their are 2 SFF models of your unit. Not really that much of a difference but just wanted you to know.

Re: hp dc5100 driver problem

I thought we might have had something, however, upon downloading the BIOS

update, the following message: "c\documents and settings\bill\my documents\downloads\ROM.CAB

is missing or corrupt."

I appreciate your input, but since this was a business unit, perhaps there is a hidden code or           something....btw, there was no OS when I bought this, so, XP pro was installed.

Thanks for your input, its well worh a "kudo."
