Find Out What Kind Of Motherboard Is In A Computer

The motherboard is the most important part of a computer. When you insert the components into the board, a complete circuit is accomplished. However, the processor and the power supply are the only two devices that the computer must have to function. You must find out what kind of motherboard is in the computer to install the proper processor, RAM and video card. If you place an incompatible component into your motherboard, you can fry both pieces.


Instructions


1. Download CPUZ. This tool presents information about a selection of devices for your computer. These include operating system, processor, motherboard as well as RAM. Go to the CPUZ page that is in the resource section.


2. Select "Download Latest Version" on the left-hand side of the CPUZ page. Click on the link and a "Save" window will pop up. Save the file to a separate folder. Choose "Save." The download will take approximately five seconds to complete.


3. Go to the download folder. You will need WinAce, WinZip or WinRAR to extract the file. Extract the file into the same folder. The "ini" file must be in the same folder as the program. No installation required.


4. Use a double click on the CPUZ file to open the program. It reads your computer's internal components. Choose the "Mainboard" tab. This gives you information about the manufacturer, model and chipset. This section also informs you about your computer's BIOS.
