RE: ? regarding device manager-----xp drivers for motherboard
Because the board is from a third party manufacturer who do themselves fully
support XP on the platform then you should be OK. The BOIS may be slightly
non-standard as far as ASUS is concerned but this is normally limited to
branding and should not affect the functionality of the board or its driver
requirements.

I had a similar issue with an HP laptop but they had modified the onboard
graphics processor in some way and I could not find one that would work in XP.
