Help : my mates pc!!

[Zidio]

Ok well basicly my mate messed his pc up got a blue screen everytime u turn it on there was no way of acessing the pc in order to do a system restore so we loaded a fresh copy of windows on (baring in mind we lost everything) we have no drivers or anything cant even install his modem onto the pc but it works we need to get all of the drivers we dont no what the pc bits are either lol so we are well and truly screwed i have a pic of the pc and i can tell you the specs if any one could help me find at least the usb drivers for this pc i would be so thankfull

Here`s the specs
AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2800+
2.08GHZ
512 RAM
Useing Xp Pro
Here`s the pic

Thanks if any one could help the usb ports are on board so im guessing there is 1 main driver which it seems near enough impossible but i know some 1 on lomcn some where could possible know some thing thanks for reading this and thank you if you can help please post back

Do you know about the hidden partition on those PCs? If you press F11 at the Packard Bell Boot screen you go into the system recovery mode and can install windows again with all correct drivers etc... I know as my family have the same pc .

ye i was about to suggest the same thing, my old pc was a Packard Bell and they like to install everything on that hdiden partition, and that smart recovery console can be accessed with the f11 key

well done to you Hazuki for beating me to it :P

i hate corporate set up machines, they just store all your drivers and back up files on the main hard disk and don't give u any driver CDs

only ever bought 1 PC that was 7 years ago ever since i built my own
